This is my first grow, and I am wondering how tall I should let the plant grow be before I make it flower? Right now the plant is about 6 inches tall and very healthy. Thanks.

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.

fuck. i'm asking the same qestion.

what is a node? i feel retarded, but can u post come pics>?

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.

hey thanks a lot, that helps. But just out of curiousity, is it normal that my plant already has 5 nodes and is only a half foot tall? And so when I do start flowering is it true the plant doubles in size?

ahaha. wow. thanks a lot. i need to check out the terminology thread, i suppose

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

i have like 4-5 nodes on my plants. should i start flowering them?
