lol buddy just said a good idea is to wait before you put into flowering...... when do you plan on flowering? and what do you have for lights 1 foot at 4 months is pretty crazy. lets see them pictures buddy?

a good rule of thumb is to take them when they reach "maturity" which means when the nodes start to alternate, or growing out one side, then up a few inches, then out the other side, as opposed to out both sides at the same time when you sprout them from seed.

however i have cloned plants as soon as about 2 months and works fine.. i think it is more of a preference thing.. i would never cut off more than 50 percent of a plant though to prevent an extraordinary amount of stress.
