Can I flower my plant?

Looks like about 6 weeks from seed. Getting close & may even be mature enough to bloom but you'll get a tiny yield from this as it is. If it was my plant I would top it once or twice & train it out for another few weeks & then transplant to a larger container. Maybe at that point it'll be large enough to flip & get a respectable yield. Very healthy green plant though so far good luck happy growing

technically you can flower your plants anytime even from seed or clone. I would put it in a 7-10 gallon pot, top the shit out of it, then get a nice yield. One big factor on yield is your strain and sometimes even the pheno of that strain. Another is optimal grow conditions so guessing with little info can be difficult. if i had to shoot out a quick guesstimate it would be from 4 to 20 grams.

Yield is governed mostly by your wattage and how well you trained them. This plant is untrained and will produce a single cola on top & not much else. You need more tops/colas to get a good yield & that can be done by topping/fimming at least once maybe twice & then bending down the tallest tops to get the lower branches to grow the same height. The idea is to get as many nodal areas that buds grow as possible under your grow space. Just takes some training and veg time but you can easily yield many times more over an untrained plant the same height. Keeping the canopy even will make buds all the same size on top which is what you want. Don't get too hung up on this right now if this is your first grow; training for yield takes exp but don't be afraid to top, FIM, pinch, bend, tie down or otherwise molest your plants; they are quite resilient.

That can be a controversial subject on here at times.

Stop asking about yield. All you are going to get is. About a pound.

I just harvested my first plant from my first grow. I flowered from about that size cause I was anxious and impatient. I don't have scales but looks to be about a oz to me once dried. I guess it all depends on what you are hoping for.

I would put them on 12/12 now I am not sure on what lights you are using. They will grow very fast once you turn them back

Is that all of it? I'm afraid when you finish trimming and drying it won't be close to an ounce. You've got your impatience behind you now, so grow the next one longer and bump up your yield. Congrats on your first!

I flip when the plant reaches 17" tall

Lol, thanks. It isn't a lot I know. I do have one more plant to harvest. I posted to show the OP what he can expect if he flowers early on. He would probably be disappointed. Me personally was just happy to make it to the end and have a harvest at all.

Mr. Drysift is a great grower, and I guess he's technically right as size is relative, but I was quite happy with 3.8 ounces from my first plant after flipping 6 weeks from seed. However, longer veg means larger yield. So he is looking out.
Yep! Now the confidence builds, the skills develop and the yields and quality increase. Enjoy.
What will be the yield do you think? Cause that one guy said a pound which was wild
