Growing indoors, alot of things come into play, time frame growing, yeild and so on, we all worry about that. A nice quick grow is uaually considered best. You can veg for a long time if you want, and time is not an issue, however, I veg for about one month, after 4-5 nodes minimum have formed and I have a plant that is about 12" tall. This way you end up with a decent sized, managable plant. (mine, right now are about 36" tall) prior to harvest.

A node is a place along the main stem where branches emerge. Its like each level of a small building, the leaves start 2 by 2 on the same levels.
I hope this helps.

Ganzy, that is quite normal. the plant will usually atleast double in size, sometimes even more.

David, wait for 12" than go for it. But, what kinda light are you using, and how far away from the tops is it?
You should place something under the smaller plants to help create an "even" canopy.
