Lend me some knowledge please.

I'm trying to decide when to flip but I know nothing of the stretch and how the canopy fills out during said stretch. I was only thinking one more week possibly two (But I want to now!). I dont want them so cramped i risk mildew and mold but also want these girls to show their potential.

They will likely fill that space up pretty well if you flip them now.

I would let them roll right now

your gonna be short on space if you let them get much bigger before flipping

Here they were one week ago to show growth. Also before I learned how to adjust white balance on my phone lol

They still have a ways to go if you want them to reach their full potential. They won't stretch that much, dont get me wrong they will double in size during flower but you have lots of space. How long have these girls been in veg? Show us a pic in a week.

Height wise he has space but he is limited on the floor space. I think the canopy area would pretty much fill the footprint if he flipped now.

A lot depends on genetics.

And this is the main reason I was asking and showed both angles if they went straight up I could almost deal with a x3 stretch but dont want to hang myself and fill the canopy so much they cant breath

Well the Cindy isn't a massive stretcher, she should come close to doubling in size. The other one I know nothing about. Maybe give them 3 or 4 more days then flip. I personally wouldn't go more than that unless you have more space.

Also the light may be a just little far away from them, but I can't say for sure.

Well you can always lollipop the bottoms and do some minimal defoliation if they get too crowded. The benefit to allowing them to veg longer decreases the longer you go as the canopy area that is actually lit will govern overall yield potential.

The light is a 300w from the wall white enhanced red led. I did want to give a few days recovery since I topped again last night and cleaned up some of the undercarriage and interior

Yeah if you topped them you definitely want to give the nodes time to bust out into branches or the stretch phase will be very stunted.

who knows they could triple or more in size. I’d flip now.

Well I guess the question is how much do you wanna get outta them. That's a 4×4 tent no? I have 6 plants in my 4×4 now. This is what they looked like 3 days before flip.


This is what they look like now day 7 after flip

No I have half the size I'm in a 2x4x6 but also half the plants you have sooo... how old are yours? They are more vertical for sure but filling out great! Mine have no vertical just under a foot but have filled out like crazy in a week! I did have some ugly issues in the beginning with ph so I haven't been sure if they are on par with growth vs time

LST them ... very light defol and veg more. Training them will open them up to more light and growth.

3 weeks seedling, 5 weeks veg, 1 week flip. This is winter though in the summer or down south you would only need 2 weeks seedling and 4 weeks veg to achieve the same result as these plants, of course genetics is a huge factor. I would still say that you could let those three Bush out a little more I myself would go another week and I don't think you would have any issues, I have a fan on the middle of the floor pointing straight up and haven't had any issues with rot or mold, it also keep the canopy temp cooler right below the light so in turn you can put the light much closer.
