How many more weeks until flower w/400w? Pics here +REP

Hey guys. My WW plants are 3 weeks old, and the smallest is about 2 weeks old. I am trying to decide when to induce flowering. I have a 400W MH and going to switch to HPS when I induce it. I heard that if they get too tall the 400 wont penetrate...is this true? I have also been reading that I should wait until I have 4 nodes before flowering. My goal is to harvest them by mid march.


Here are some pics.















Temps stay in the 78 - 81 degree range and humidity around 35%. I started nutes two days ago with FF Grow Big 6-4-4. I have them in 3-gallon deep pots.

+REP to advice.

Nice!!!!!! Where did you get the square containers?

I got them at a local hydro shop. I love them because I could group the plants close together, but I am starting to move them apart because the foliage is blocking light from other plants.

Nice healthy plants man. I would flower in a couple weeks. do you have any height restrictions?

I have 8 feet vertical space...but since I have a 400w, I don't want to grow them very tall.

2 or three week n they'll be okay to flower i should think , looking good aswell i might have to get some of thoose square pots fot the next grow dewey.

The only thing that sucks about the square pots is that I have only been able to find round water-holders for the bottom of the pots, which defeat the purpose...so I just take them to my bathtub and water them there...I also let it drain for bit then place them under a towel when I put them back in the room. This will cause the humidity to raise as well since I am having low humidity problems.

2 more weeks of veg will add more weight on final product.

I would wait until about 7 or 8 nodes. The plants look great by the way.
