Welcome to RIU.
Your gonna run out of heigth so prepare for it.
What I did was take a extension curtain rod and place it under tall ass branches (they will get tall) aand then tie them down to rod. In just a few hrs the buds will turn towards the lights.

This is my deisel,(now 3.5 weeks from harvest}. You can see I lst the top cola (bar removed once cola was trained and tied to main stem.

This was her 14 days of 12/12

Here she is now

I veged for 11 weeks and I take cuts for clones at 9 weeks. Thats why she flowered so fast. Maturity is the key.

wow 11 weeks of veg , i can see by the plant that you must have a good size room to grow in , im fast running out of room hehe i tied some branches down yesterday .will go have a look and post a couple of more pics.
also my cupboard has 2 key holes old style can see right through em , would ambient room light seeping through the keyholes stop them from turning ?
also i have heard that you can turn the light of for 36 hrs to speed up the turning process is this true .cheers

You don't want any light but a green light on plants. Thats a small amount on your ladies, I really don't know if that will hurt or not?
I have tryed 36 hrs 24 and There is no difference in my studies. I have tryed several strains and no speeding up.
I have found out though the longer you veg the quicker they flower.
