So this is my second grow ever and I’m currently using a Phototron with a pot with soil inside it and it’s got 3 40w U-shaped fluorescent tubes and they’re almost full spectrum 6500k found at old store. I am just getting nervous because things are going well but the issue is that the plants on week 6 of vegetative state and it’s getting tall and I am wondering if I should go ahead and flip it to flowering and give it enough for the stretch or would it be better to let it stay longer in veg?
I always flip when the plant is about the height of the pot, so go ahead.
Better too early than too late.

I disagree, do not flip before pre-flowers are mature otherwise you can cause unwanted sexual characteristics such as hermaphrodtism.

If its the size you want then flip it, but if you want less height and more veg time is no problem you could top it to get more colas and less height.

”This is not me…Dr. G is from RIU and members there were giving him shit for having a Phototron and no one was helping him so I told him to come over to Overgrow. Let’s welcome him to Overgrow folks.

Welcome @DrGonzo13 !
Unlike the dickbags at RIU, we don’t care what you’re growing in here at OG, we just wanna see pictures hahaha
But for sure looks great and would tell you to flip and continue. Phototrons are cool looking though lol

72 mini monsters double potted into living beds.
KNF methods and a bunch of other Soil Earth Web practices.
18/6 first 21 days from germ, 12/12 on 22 day regardless of auto or reg, node count or size, just 22 days. Now it gets weird, nodes, stretching, and all fast and miniature, flowers on autos, regs with no id yet, oh what fun, I actually never grew autos til this year, I Like em Alot! for SOG.

Also I have been using OG for just about 2 months and hands down it’s got the best people and information that I’ve ever had been involved with so thanks a bunch for your help and support instead of the awesomeness of the peeps on RIU and it’s nice to see that and feel like I’m a part of a community of people who actually want to see u succeed so THANK YOU OG!

Will do I thought I did but I must have forgotten to save it but once again I really appreciate the help and getting me to a place where I can get good advice n not read keyboard warrior stories and bickering on who’s the best grower. I am excited about this plant it’s way better looking and growing up in half the time of my first grow but I learned what worked best for my grow!
