Hey there,

Ok basically Ive had a whole bunch of bagseed in veg for id say 2 months now.
The biggest plant being only a foot tall. Im guessing its been from stress during the grow.
It is my first grow and when i started in the soil im pretty sure I fucked up and made them grow slow.
I eventually changed over 2 plants to Coco with Nutrifield A+B nutrients and NF Zyme for root and shoot development.

Since transplant the plants have decided to start to grow again and they are growing well.
Only thing is ive had them in veg for such a long time that I jus want to flower them as they are now and take what I can get from the plants.
If they dont all hermie or turn male that is.
One of the plants in the soil is still doing pretty bad but the other plant in soil is doing well, even though im feeding her the same nutes as my coco plants.

Also reason being is I just placed an order for some fem'd Nirvana Ice and Green House Lemon Skunk seeds.
So I wanna get rid of al the bag seed I have going and start with some good seeds. Also Ill be building an ebb and flow system to use on my new seeds.

So back to my current grow. The plants are all about a foot tall give or take.. some are very bushy some arent as bushy. If I was to swap over from my 600w MH to a 600W HPS and start a 12/12 light cycle to enduce budding, would this be a good idea of plants at this height.
The plants are fairly old for their size, they are around 2months just in veg and obviously havent grown heaps due to stress,nute burn, heat stress and ontop shitty genetics bag seed.
So all in all I started where I should have waited done more research then spent the money.

Would it be worth budding these plants and if so what could be my expected yeild, I do know plants are meant to almost double in size when come time to flower so im guessing these would then be some decent size plants.
But im a noob so any help from you pros would be great !!

Heres some pics to help !!

This is one of the plants still in soil, evidence of heat stress and nute burn is shown. Not too fussed about this plant.IMG_0611.jpg

Cheers in advanced guys,

Should do better than an o some strains don't veg fer shit if conditions aren't optimal. Ending a runt grow now went from roots popping out of a clone cube to top,lst,transplant and flower in same day. I'm guessing 5 zips 3 midgets.

You'll do fine keep temps -80f in flower as important as water imo. The number of nodes is a big deal also, looks like ur covered. I was playing with the runts for kicks 5"-7" 5 nodes. I still try for -24" at harvest but I'm 400.

Yeah plants are bushy as all fuck hopefully this helps produce more buds, some sections the nodes are so close that you can't even see the stem.
Im flowering with a 600w HPS in a 1.2x1.2x2m grow tent !
would it make much difference if I was to veg for a further week or is a flip more productive at this stage !
