Hey RIU so my ladies are doing quite well, thank you, and most of them have alternating nodes, plus they have the female preflowers forming at their nodes... but I just thought I might ask, a couple of them are just below three feet tall, should I flower now? since everywhere I read it says they'll double I'm a bit scared hahahahaha...too much to trim...:joint:

in the second photo the little dark stick off to the left, in the foliage is a one foot ruler...

yea definately flower as soon as possible, your probably goin to need some serious side lighting for sativa dom strains like them .

Ya man remember light properly transfers only 3-5 feet from source also they look good and ready
 
okay well...I currently have a veg formulation of nutes in there, should I just flush it all out now and start anew with everything, or should I wait a week and do it?...feels like a waste of nutes since I just changed the rez like a day ago
 
I don't see that you'd gain anything by waiting, 3 months is a while to veg, put them in. I am about to put 2 of my plants into the chamber myself and the countdown begins!
 
Those nutes will be fine for your first week or so, don't waste them.I think i would top them now and flower, and i bet they don't double in height but get alot fatter.
 
dude, you fugged up! have you not heard of "the stretch?" plants flowered at 12" can finish at a height of 3 to 4 feet. plants flowered at 3 feet tall, well, you figure it out....
 
aww shit...well imean i only vegged em for 3 weeks... I was planning to veg for a month hahaha...but i just finished switching out the nutes and exchanging the mh for a hps- and I'm trying to get rid of these advanced nutes anyway since i want to switch to "cutting edge solutions" lineup
 
well, you can do some cutting, or you can do some tying down. but you don't want to let them go the way they are. they'll take over you area in no time, lol...
 
yea man, good luck with that. i recomend some side lighting like others have said. and it is definatly too late for a scrog. those plants are gunna be MASSSSSIVEEE
 
Its in my garage so i'd say about eight feet or so...that should be enough right? Also depends how high I can raise the light too, might need to get ladder to get up that high hahaha...but the thing is I've grown before yano and I just really don't see them getting all the way up to six feet ...just feels a bit extravagant
 
well here they are same plants, 6 weeks in

they're taller than me now (I'm 6'2")
