Time to Flower? (First Grow)

Hello all,

For my first grow I elected to grow ‘Skywalker’ provided by Dutch Passion (Indica dominatint). As you can see from the pictures, things appear to be going well. I am currently in my fourth week of growing (which includes germination time and seedling phase). I am utilising a 250 watt HPS system in a small grow tent (60*60*120).

I am quite curious if anyone can shed some light on the following question;

Would you recommend inducing the flower phase now given that all 4 plants have shown premature flowering stems OR would you continue to hold off for a while yet (if so, for how long)?

Any advice on the matter would be much appreciated!

Happy Growing

Mmmmm, I'm not seeing any pictures? I'm more well read than I am experienced but if you are seeing preflowers, its probably ok to switch to flowering. How tall are the plants now and how tall do you want them to be at the end? I heard the plants usually at least double and can sometimes triple in height! Are they all looking female?

Your plant just became Mature, give it at least 2 more weeks. Allow those hormones to build up, and the buds will do the same.

Personaly I would wait until they are 18" min and 24" max. You waited this long why not wait a just a little longer and show us some Big Yeilds.

I would wait maybe 1 more week and then flip em. Usually, I wait about 3 weeks after clones have rooted. If your growing from seeds, wait a month or month and a half.

Don't forget to take clones of each!!

Thanks for all the advice and recommendations, I will gladly bide my time if higher yields will be gained. This site and the people on it are great!
Thanks again.
