I have been searching for some info ' weather or not to flip to 12/12 in my 2x2 space with 2x blue dream?
I have the scrog net set at 10" and the girls are just poking through the netting and I managed to bend a couple down but I'm unsure of when to flip? aparently ' sativa dom strains reach for the sky?

Any way I planted 2 seeds on 24 / 10 / 16
Topped both at the 5th node and once again 1 week later at 2x diffrent branches.

Today they are 37 days from seed

I I recipe no help or suggestions I will be giving the girls 7 more days then flipping to 12/12 regardless ' and I will have to just watch and learn to what this BLUEDREAM can do???

Arent you blocking your two lights above with the one below?

You topped twice so you have 4 cola per plant?

I've checked it and it's fine ' the angle of the 300s doesn't over lap the 150 unit.
5" gab between them so it's cool.
Do you think I'm still good for a little longer veg??

My bag seed is a little ahead of you around 40-50 days of VEG and just flipped about 3 days ago, i wish I would have flipped sooner because I'm running out of width room but it looks like you have another foot or so more than me you could go ahead if you wanted to speed things up and conserve space a little. :lol:

Also you could prob lower you lights a little more but that's your call

Thanknow both for the response ' I usually keep my lights super close but I was trying to get them to strech just a little to fill the net ' but I think I'm loosing PAR AT 25"?? Will move them down to 20" see how that go over the next few days.

I would give little longer unless you have no room if I had no to get bigger I'll flip
I only have a 2x2 and the last cheese strain I done under the same set up yielded me 4oz and I had 30 nice size tops ' veg her for 46 days and she only filled 65% by end of flower, this time I'm going 2x sativa dom blue dream and I'm a little wuried about the strech lol its only my 4th grow and it's my 3rd diffrent setup ' I started in a 1.2cm tent with 600 hps and 4 kush clones from a monster mother that had been going for 3 years.
I pulled 20 zip and I didn't know a thing? Not even utube videos were avaliable at the time because I had no net lol.
I've down sized massively ' but I enjoy it more and pound for pound or gram for gram I'm doing better now using budget led?
Can't wait to convert these mars units with some cxb3590

I'm going to risk it and go a few more weeks and prepare myself for some defoliating and weaving lol

Any sugestions on if I should top anymore??
I topped them both once and the smallest one I topped again in 2 diffrent spots , should I go again befor I flip to 12/12??

I also sldidnt realize I could just fill most of the holes untill 25 out of the 40 holes are filled with tops then if I need add another net 10" ubove that one maybe? ?

Raise ya scrog a bit , let it grow up through ya net about 6 inches and then start bendin em through ya net until ya entire net is filled , and nice and even , give it another week then flip , so in my opinion , another 3 weeks then flip . after the stretch you will have a nice full tent .

If you top just above the second set of true leaves you have 4 mains. Do that again and you have the 16 AK mentions.
Yup yup and then 4 days into flower top the tops again 1 node only just the very top it'll slow down stretch just a little and add 4 more tops to those 16 lol I know people say don't top in flower blah blah blah done it like this for 8 years never an issue never a Hermie never stunting growth to be detrimental. It's legit but again exactly day 4 of flower you can do later but if you have any pistils sticking out the top leave it
