How much growth after trigger?

[guyguy]

Hey so I just triggered my plants last night, switched the light to 12-12.

I am wondering around how long before they start growing like crazy and then when does that growth stop and the plants begin to flower?

I know they grow like 2 or 3 times their size when triggered.. I am trying to figure out the details.

Thanks!

It's subjective depending on strain. Indica stretches less in general and flowers faster. It will stretch from a third of it's height to double its height at most (never had any stretch anywhere near that). Sativa can double or triple its size and I have some going right now that is barely showing flowers after 35 days from light cycle change.

Aha ok thanks.. So the sative that is just finally showing flower-did you notice any crazy fast growth? OR was it just a few inches every few days until it begun to flower?

Sorry...just saw your Q.... Yeah, it grew fast in height once it sensed it was time to flower. So now that Sativa is over double its height but is now starting to show more flowers and the inter-nodes are getting smaller. But yeah, they all shoot up some. The Indica's did the same thing, just not as much, but still a significant amount if you're limited in height. You can see it in pictures here: http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=246051
