You can veg them as long as you want. Just remember they will double or triple in size during flower. Its all in how much room you have to grow. I would let them get toi about 18 inches before flower.

is their a reason that you are needin to go 12/12 so soon like lack of space or somethin?
i just ask cuz you will binefit alot more if you can wait it out untill their at least 36in..
theirs no need to rush things...patince is a virtue...
if your just wantin some quick somke..can you just buy a bag to get you buy untill you harvest??
unless you are havein space issues...you can go 12/12 from seed also.....:peace:

I would actually go 12/12 4 weeks into it or when it is about 12-15 inches. Lighter up for 20 on 4 off cycle turning the time off by 1 hour weekly. Your plant should blow up within the first 3 weeks. Once the 3rd - 4th week hits (depending on if you are seeing flowering)

turn off the lights for a 24hr cycle (If you do not by this point see any flowering)
this should force a bit of flowering and you should see balls or calyxes.

However I noticed WHAT LOOKED LIKE balls when I first tried this, but they ended up SPROUTING Calyxes. Be sure and let them form for a few days before deciding to kill off your hard work.

then get the light going again 12-12, but be sure about your times making sure they TURN ON at the same point daily.
