Here my problem. I'm still new to growing. This is my second grow, but i completly screwed my first one up and thank god i found this site because this grow is doing great. I'm going to be using the same light setup for flowering, its a mix of warms and cool whites.
6x 42w
6x 26w
4x 23w
Can i let them get bigger and flower with the same light or should i flower now because of the light.
Heres a couple of pics and theres a link to my journal in my sig.
first pic is from today second pics a good look at my light setup.

I asked a very similar question once, the only response I got was "you can flower whenever you want to"
So I vegged about a month and a half and started flower then.
I am also on a cfl , floro setup.
I'm growing a sativa strain though so I didn't want to wind up with 8 foot tall plants.

if you're not going to get any additional lighting i recommend you flower soon. They will triple in size and it will take more light to cover them. Also you should have those lights MUCH closer. you should be able to put them within 2 inches of those bulbs if you have good air movement. After a 2nd look at your pics....your going to want more lights to flower all those. but thats the good thing about CFL's you can add them as you need them.
They look healthy though, way to grow!

nice homemade cfl setup there i agree needs to be closer and if you have the space... space them out and have them kind of ontop/between the plants also what color bulbs using? blue 6500k or red 2700k ?
blue are for veg and red are more for flowering stage

I would say yes! I am on my first indoor grow and 8 weeks into flower. And oh boy did I get a suprise! I flowered at 6-8 inches and ended up with 4' tall girls. Not that I am complaining but if space is an issue start now! I guess that would also depend on the strain and its genetics? But be careful if space is a concern. I ended up tearin apart my whole closet! LMAO. Good luck and looking good! BTW I found a real cheap 150w hps at econolight.com 30 bucks w shipping.

first get more flowering bulbs.. yes flowering can be done at anytime but usuall rule of thumb is 10-12" for inddoor op's. but they will stretch 3x so take that into consid. i go 15-16 sometimes. increase yield a little bit

Yea If height is an issue I would flower early... I flowered in 2 weeks and she was about 5 to 6", 4 weeks later into flower phase she is about 16 1/2" and looking nice
