Spread em out and let em grow. Once you get them into flower.. they will stretch their legs and put more space between the leaves. Then you can figure out what you should snip if it calls for it.

That could be really good or really bad. They are pretty crowded in there and still need to stretch. How do you water the back plants?

You took @Wastei 's advice on how to properly grow in coco.

Me personally I would hang a scrog net and use that to spread them out. They have a lot of room in there still to fill out in. Some strains literally cannot hold themselves up in late flower so the net helps with that as well. I think your plants are going to fill in your space nicely in flower. I wouldn't defoliate much just the ones covering up bud sites.
Would you scrog now? Or wait till they stretch a little bit? If i scrog now i will need at least 1 more scrog id imagine

It's too late to do an actual scrog........a scrog is started early and placed about 8'-12" above the pot and all the growth below the net is removed. You're talking about a trellis net to hold up the colas.

Your gonna be surprised how much those plants are about to grow. Both vertically and filling out. So yeah I would set the net up now at whatever height above canopy say 8". Let them stretch through the net and then make 1 final adjustment after stretch is over. Then you can play with the branches running them through the net as they develop. Cheers.

Yeah you're right that is what I'm talking about. Thanks. The net is really good to spread them out with.

You can lollipop all the lowers as well if you want. Stuff that will not reach the canopy.
At what stage you thinking for that? Ive been doin little bits of trimming at bottom just to make watering them easier

I usually do the final lollipop after they are done stretching. That way you know for sure what you want to take off. You don't have to lollipop either. They don't hurt anything they just usually stay larfy down there.
Sound, there only a few days into 12/12 so will get net up in next day or 2 and then look to lollipop maybe end of next week when theyve had a little stretch
