Ive got a friend who usually gives me a few little rooted clone olants for me to grow.. I put the plants in a bigger pot and leave for 2 weeks then put them in final 11 litre pots for another 2 weeks before flipping them to 12/12...am i doing this the right way or should i leave longer in veg? Is there a way to tell best time to out plant to flower...? Pics below are my plants after 2 weeks vegging in final pot.. Are they ready to put into flower yet? Thanks

I flip clones as soon as they show signs of new growth, which means roots have taken hold if the new medium and "good ta go".

Sounds about right I see a lot of people on here that flip after a week of transplanting in the plants only three or four weeks old I run mine for 60 days sometimes 90 depends on what size pot I’m using

damn.. 90 day veg? I'd have to only run one plant in my flowering room if I let it go that long. how many plants do you typically run and how big is the space?

I do it much the way you do. Two weeks after transplant they are back to the pre repotting growth speed.
When i was doing microgrows, i would repot and put to 12/12 immediately to help keep the size down

I think it kind of boils down to how much height and light you have to work with. You can flip anytime they’ve started showing new growth, and factor in that they’ll probably at least double in height. I’ve also heard a plant is ready to flower when the nodes start alternating.

I'd veg two to fill out the canopy but in my case I flipped them 17 days after taking the clone, that was 10 days to root and 7 days to establish some root system.

It's generally better to ask before going ahead.
