SCROG help

Hey gang, I've just started week 5 of veg on my second grow in my stealth cupboard. I ran a SCROG on my first grow that was pretty successful, however I nearly killed that grow several times so by the time I'd brought it back to life and it was looking healthy again, it was around 12 inches tall by the time I went to flower. I put the screen in once I flipped it and nearly lost control with the sudden growth after flipping the lights.

I want to get it right this grow and thought I'd flip it after 4 weeks of veg but now entering week 5, the plant is only 2 inches tall - healthy as fuck but short and I can't imagine it'll grow much taller in a week. Is there a rule of thumb to an "ideal" height for my grow space (2' x 2' x 3') before I flip it and add the screen? Plant is Amnesia Lemon, sativa.

I'd also like to take some clones.

Thanks for any advice

I recently had the same short status issue with an auto that was barely three inches tall at four weeks. Not knowing if it'd ever reach a decent screen height, I ditched my ideas of scrogging and eventually topped and did a lot of LST instead. You might want to consider going that route while she's still young and flexible.

There's another couple of nodes since that picture, but very little extra height. I'll give it another week or so in veg and see what happens
