As title says - do I still flip her tonight or wait a day or two for her to repair herself then flip?

Or is flipping her tonight still ok even tho she’s only had about 5 hours of repair time?

Id like to see a picture. Also that plant is going to stretch for two weeks, it will heal.
Yeah I kept with the plan and figured I’d have until 7am tomorrow to put lights back on if anybody felt it was bad to keep going....

Here’s the plant that I broke a side branch on. This is before I noticed the broken branch (on right hand side) or I would have zoomed in on it. I can take another pic tomorrow when lights on. But it’s basically as if I topped her purposely. Maybe she produce a fat cola there lol.

@GeneBanker - what u think?

So first photos I’m actually growing. Been all autos. Flipped tonight. My temp is at 63F and 50% rH now.

Worried a little about the low temp. Never had issues with high rH with fan off but that might change since I’m doing 12/12 now.

Normally when I ran the autos it wouldn’t get colder than 65F and rH would hang around 40-50%.

Do you think temps of 60-65F is ok during lights out when on 12/12?

rH I’m gojng yo try and keep at or below 50 until last couple weeks of flower then try and drop under 40.

I think your girls look fine. Im in my last couple days of flower and im going home to my room at that temp. Make sure you dry out good, and stay on top of ph. It can lead to bad shit for your ladies in the cold. I foeget the name of the shit that can set in but im willing to bet someone knows the name

Everything looks and sounds fine to me. It'll heal up no prob keep it moving. Those are going to be some good sized ladies soon
thanks @SmokeyMcChokey

I have two of Critical + (photos) going now:

The younger one was vegged 3 weeks (shes about 1.5 feet, if I would stretch the main stem straight, she would be around 2 feet).

The older one was vegged 4 weeks (shes about 2 feet, if I would stretch the main stem straight, she would be well over 2 feet).

I did some good amount of LSTing, a very very very small amount of defoliation of the inner leaves (mostly lower), a lot of leaf tucking, topped the main branch at 7th node down to 6th node and fimmed every side branch at the same time I did the topping of the main stem. I felt this would help her heal with less time and stress if done all at one time. It seemed to have worked.

Here are the pics (sorry about lighting) from this morning from the older one after the first night of 12/12. I removed the LST lines this morning.

Older Critical +....The circle on the pic is where the top snap off:
