just put plants in lights and they have grown overnight !!! maybe they are ready to flower?

still would like a pros advice...

and thanks dude, mine look nothing like yours. i have been cropping or cutting off the big leaves to get more light to the shoots, is this correct ? not all big leaves just some.

any advice help now lol

Hey, u can flower from day 1 if u want to, it's never too early...

I only cut leaves when I trim before flowering, or if a big leaf is blocking a bud site. If they get too tall u can LST (tie it down).

Here is a picture of how u deal with height...

Some people tie down for different reasons, I did it to keep the side branches the same height as the top cola since I'm only using CFL's for this grow.

leave them flowering man if u fuck them about tween veg and flower too much u will panic the plant into hermiphication and it will grow male balls so it pollenates its self and u dont want that man.

There is no reason to remove leaves unless they are yellow and come off with a slight tug. Take some time with your plant, it will let you know when leaves need to be removed. Leaves are your friends and how your buds get energy.

I believe that even when a leaf is shadowing a bud, its better to keep the leaf. If you MUST, use a twist tie or something to bend the leaf so light hit the bud. But *I* think that light hitting the leaf is a better source of energy than light hitting the bud, I mean, which is bigger, ie a better source for photosynthesis.

Good luck
