Seems like you are already getting tight on space, so flipping soon and hoping they don't stretch to much might be a decent plan. How old are they now?

I’d wait til their nodes started alternating.
3 of them Day 30 the other Day 25

In a week or two you should see some maturity. If you aren’t able to raise your lights much I don’t see a problem with flipping soon. It’s up to you, and your space.

Ok, then they should be pretty close to being mature. The maturity of the genetics is why Hydro said he might wait for alternating nodes. That is one of the signs that the plants have reached a natural point when they can actually reproduce(begin to flower). If you flip plants before that point then they just won't start to flower until they reach that point. I would bet that your plants are close enough that they won't take long to transition into flower. They all have indica dominant traits showing which usually mature faster then sativas.
I think if they were my plants I would be flipping them. Even if it took an extra week for them to start flowering they are just going to grow normally in the meantime, so same difference as under a longer light cycle. I mostly am looking at those plants and that space, and picturing it overcrowded and super bushy if they get much bigger. Then you can have issues with air flow and distance to/from the light.
