I throw mine into 12/12 at around 12 to 13 inches tall. My first grow I bumped a light and broke the top off and was 16 inches tall(harvested (3oz 10 grams dried) and my last one I didn't break the top and was 30 inches tall(had to harvest early and was about 1.5oz dried). I have 2 in 12/12 now that I put in at 12 inches and other was 10 inches and they are 16 inches and 15 inches tall now after a week(ones a clone and one is sativa from seed).
So the answer is yes, you can put yours into 12/12 with no problems as long as the stalk can support a plant that is over 2 feet tall.
