well usually the when Cannabis changes to the alternate phyllotaxis its a sign of maturity, but youve interrupted that natural pattern with the toping. And the sidebranches dont necessarily follow the same pattern so its hard to just judge by this alone... the plant surely is old enough to be able to be flipped.... but honestly, how long you veg depends @ how much space you want to fill out (how stretchy the strain is...)but recently heard to wait for alternating nodes, is this recommended?
Thanks for the responses, they’re both 100% sativas so I’m expecting quiet a stretch so I’ll most likely flip this week. I’m attaching a close up picture of the pre flower mentioned, what can they mean?looking good, really good although theres a suspicious preflower @ the topped node (unclear, doesnt have to mean anything)

Yikes, what does it mean if they do turn spade-like? This is my first grow so trying to get all the knowledge I can. Cheershmmm that looks strange... may be due to angle/perspective
but as long as its not spade-like you should be good
keep it up
