Hibernation!!

I have a Hermann who is now 2, the woman who had him before didn't put him into hibernation.
Do they have to be a certain age or size before they can?
Do Hermanns have to be put into hibernation?

I've been told they have to be 5 years old, but I know people have done it earlier. I think it's when they are strong/big enough to be able to survive the period. My tortoise is 5 this year and I'm thinking about hibernating him for about a month this year, i'll miss him

That's what I think though, someone correct me if I'm wrong
