New B question on how long in vegetation

Good day everyone. Been doing a lot of reading here and decided to ask a question. How long should I keep my girls in vegetative state. They are only 5 inches or so high but real thick and have 6 colas. I'm thinking of making the switch. This is my first grow.

I am growing hydro with CFL lights. Here are some pics. They turned one month old on the 4th of June. I have some 2 week old girls too. They are bublicious and mango skunk. The one in the pic that is wilty is a hayseed plant. Not sure why she is wilty. Other plants in same light and water doing great. still figuring out the pic thing sorry about the duplicates

I would flip them to flowering now since you are using CFL. CFL does not penetrate very far at all. Those girls will stretch in flowering. If you are switch to hps in flowering...I would veg for a month and a half then flip. They normally finish at 4ft. Good luck Chuck.

Thanks for the input. I know the CFL will not penetrate winch is why I trained them to grow out and not up. Think I might flip this weekend. Thanks again
