6 - 8 weeks of plant life or 12 - 18 inches tall, but be sure the plant is mature, it should have alternating nodes on the plant, then you will know it is mature. You should also be able to tell it's sex before flowering.

Keep in mind that most double or triple in height when they stretch at 12/12 introduction with artificial light.

Alternating nodes? What are they and how they look?

Thanks.

Nodes are those spots on the stalks where the leaves, branches, etc. pop out from.

Alternating nodes would mean one here (node) and a wee bit further up and on the other side of the stalk/stem another (node)
