when can i start flowering purple diesel clones

i have 2 purple diesel clones that are 20 inches.... their under a 400 hps light..... in soil also.....
 
If im not mistaken (and someone correct me if i'm wrong) The clone would be the same age as the mother so its pretty much up to you since its already mature. (again, correct me if i'm wrong)
 
The answer to the question is as soon as they root through as long as you want,how big do you want them to be.
 
I clone all the time and you can click (12/12) it anytime. Depends on how tall u want it, cause they still grow in flowering. Sounds like a really cool strain. I grow sour diesel & they get tall, and my Grand Daddy purples don't grow as tall, so i veg.longer to get them taller. So it's really up to u bro. Keep us posted would love to see them in flowering. Peace
 
they have been ready, it is all about how big u want the plant to be upon harvest. u do realize that it is going to DOUBLE in height from when u switch to 12-12? So if u switch tomorrow, ur plant will be at least 40' tall upon harvest.
 
DUDE! Flower those bitches! ESPECIALLY with a Sativa dominant starin THEY ARE GONNA STRECH. Big time. Sometimes sativas will TRIPLE the height after the switch. I only have a certain amount of vertical room. I've had plants try to grow ABOVE the light (major tie down time and what a bitch!) Flip the switch man.....FLIIIIIP IT.
 
hmmmmmmm.....Why are they so lacking in vegetative growth? They are tall.....but so very spindly. Anyways.....yeah.....flip the switcheroo.
 
I would assume he's referring to the lack of lateral branching and or the distance between the internodes( where each new leaf and shoot forms on the main stem).
Bushy and branchy is better for all aspects of the cycle,be it for yield,cuts,canopy control or all of the above.
The perceived issue could be either genetics or not enough lighting.I like to use 4' t8 flouro shoplights the twin bulb kind.They provide adequate light to achieve the desired rates of growth for me,your mileage may vary a bit.
Hope this helps,ya don't have to spend a lot to get a lot back.

110312_006.jpg110312_007.jpg110312_005.jpgok here they are on Wednesday will be their 3rd week.... then i flip the switch...... any recommendations..... this is my 1st time growing indoors..... i will be feeding them bloom and hydroplex.... how close should my 400 watt light be to the plants?
 
Depends on if it's in a glassed in hood,if so and it's adequately ventilated they can touch the glass.
I would up-pot them for sure get the lights as low as possible without burning the plants and still cover the entire canopy.
Good luck the plants look healthy,just don't go crazy on additives because that just makes it harder.
I'm not familiar with the nutes yer using so can't really make any comments on them.
 
hey a better pic of them..... the additives are hydroplex bloom maximizer and pure blend pro bloom from botanicare..... i hope this shit works.....
