My plants are at about 14 inches:



I would want to veg them longer, maybe a month. But I've got a 250 watt HPS and 2 105 CFLs for my flower, and I was concerned that I won't get enough penetration if I let them get any taller. Any thoughts?

Flip em. They will double or even tripple in size.

I mean if u got the room you could let them go longer so really its a personal preference.

I'd wait. You have a 250w you won't get that much growth in flower. I would say 100% is a good goal to reach.

How much do those pots hold? Personally I see you have some ceiling room and if not you can lst, top, screen etc. and let them go another 2 weeks. The extra time in veg is worth the extra bud w/ such few plants.

Those are 4-5 gallon pots, I have about 5 ft in height available. And I'm growing Northern lights, 100% indica.

I think that he is past the point where he can LST the plant without damaging his stalk, but he does have lots of vertical room so definitely keep them going.
