Is this acceptable for 27 days in 12/12 cycle (pictures)?

So basically, I switched the lights to 12/12 cycle on the 1st of January (I know funny :), but it was the right time to go lol) that means they are 27 days flowering, I guess. It took them about 7 days to show hair if I remember correctly, it was something between 7-9 days deffo. I think they are a bit on the smallish side but they are seriously hairy and smell gorgeous. What do you guys think? I am not sure on the definition of flowering; is flowering from day one switching 12/12, if yes, then they look small for 4 weeks; if from seeing the hairs then they are adequate I would say...what do you guys think?

Nah they look nice man. What you didnt say was how long you vegged 'em for and what is your lighting? Most people say that the flowering cycle doesnt really begin until you see the presence of pistals ( the little female hairs) which is typicall 7-10 days after you actually flipped the light cycle. You'll find that to be a much more accurate reading than starting from the time you flipped them.
They may be just a tiny bit stretchy but it sure isn't bad either. Depending on your lights them buds just might join together nicely. I've had some that looked like they were stretched too much but they caught up to each other after all.
All in all it looks like a nice job to me. Do you know what they strains are you have there? They look like they're all or nearly all Sativa and they're gonna probably take awhile to finish for ya.

I have them under 600W HPS. I vegged them 4-5 weeks under MH. The one on the left is stretchy, stretchier than the other 2 even though they are all the same strain (from seeds). They are THC Bombs. They are supposed to be a mx, but I agree with you because I had recived some free indica seeds with the bombs (SensiKush) and they looked like nearly 100% sativas next to the Kush (which had wide leaves, and was very bushy and much shorter and denser, had to pull em out as they were all males). The tallest one right now is 60" and the other 2 are 40"ish. Have had to bend the tall one for a while

^ yeah thats what I was thinking also, and was going to ask...

I flipped mine on the 1st also and mine look a lil more robust under 600W, so I'm wondering what strain and lighting they are under...
but hell, I wouldn't trip either, plants look pretty decent otherwise...nice actually

edit:
oops. I see me and the OP musta been posting at the same time :shock: (and answered my q's)

anyway bro THC bomb is on my next grow.....

I think the reason could be that the room is quite large and the light gets dispersed a little. Thanks guys anyway. I am not too pushed about the spacing. I'll get out of it what I''ll get. I will do some serious modifications my next grow though :P. About the THC Bomb, this strain gets great reviews, probably the stickiest strain ever lol. But just one thing about the seeds though. I got them from marijuana-seeds.nl. I got 10 seeds, gave one away as a gift, 6/9 opened, one died for unknown reasons in the 2nd week of its life. I had 5 nice plants so, two of them I topped at the 2nd node and had beautiful four tops growing on each of the two. They turned to be males, grrr, made some killer milk out of them though lol. So just keep this in mind. Good strain, but the seeds are so so. Out of the 10 you might get 4 females, they give complimentary 5 seeds extra of a random strain though...
 
I do pretty extensive due diligence before I buy these damn expensive seeds...
the one thing is pretty consistent is that it seems for every "rave" strain, someone else will claim the strain ain't sh^t
THC bomb really fits that dichotomy so please let us know how the smoke is

I most definitely will ;)
 
THC Bomb is top-notch smoke. I ran it 3 times. Super frosty, super tight, heavy yielding plant. 60"???? Damn! Out of the 3 runs, i have grown a total of 6 THC Bomb plants (100% germ rate). Never came close to 60"! My biggest was maybe 36" and yield was a bit over 3 zips.

Very, VERY narcotic/knock out smoke. One hitter for me before bed, thats all i needed!
 
I would say that is normal for most people. they will start getting big . slowly. that is about 3 weeks for me . then they take off . the will double in size in a week or so later , depending on your set up . and get bigger and bigger,

Thanks for the input :). I have her in a trash bag with about 8 gallons of soil lol.

Thanks for your reply. This is my first grow, but I have realised one thing: I wanted the plants to be huge. Now that I have one really tall and the other two medium tall, I'm starting to see that the medium height is better because the lower half of the plant's buds are closer to the light source and are getting bigger. With a tall plant you gotta elevate the lamp as the plant gets taller so you're losing out on the lower part of the plant. Don't get me wrong, this is my first grow indoor and I'm a noob; but I will aim to have my plants medium height in the future.
