Nice and lush and bushy. I think you can flower any time you want now depending on your space and lights and the how much yield you want. If you flower now I predict they will triple or quadruple their size, mostly in the next 4-5 weeks.

I would transplant now (before flowering) btw.

i let mine grow till there 11inch's then flower. it really depends on the type of plant like indica after putting it into flowering it will grow 50% to 100% its size. sativa will grow 100% to 200% its size. so if i put indica into flowering at 11inch's when done it will be 22 to 33inchs. how tall is your room?.

Yah i would repot it.....let it chill for a couple days, maybe a week.....then go into flowering, like everyone says depending on strain most times it will double..Nice and lush it should yield good....
And yes dont water so much, let the top of the soil get nice and crusty first before you water....;P

If it's just one plant I'd flower now. I think you have OK space and OK light (assuming it's the right spectrum), but if you have a male, you'll probably want to know ASAP so you can start over ASAP.

An indica will probably stay pretty short as bwinn said. I find that regardless of the strain, the earlier you flower, the greater will be the growth spurt after flowering kicks in.

Opinions differ on watering, but keep in mind that if you have really retentive soil and mediocre drainage, the soil on top can be bone dry while the soil at the bottom is soaked.

I use a moisture meter and poke it 2/3 or more down. I wait till its dry all the way down there.

You want to avoid root rot, but also, roots need oxygen.
