All of the screen should be covered
That's the idea, the screen makes you use all of the horizontal space in the grow area
Some people, like mentioned earlier, flower it and train it in while it's stretching.. you can do that too if you want but personally I like to fill the horizontal space, grow a tiny bit more so the branches in those space are ready to go and then I flower it. The longer it grows the less it stretches but judging growth speeds, stretch and all that is really really hard. Pretty much the only way to know what will happen is to get a mother plant and clone that one plant for successive grows. With each grow you'll learn the genetic traits through trial and error.
It's not enough to say it's "chemdawg" or "kush" or what ever- since every single seed has the potential to be a little (or alot) different. Some strains you can plant 10x of the same thing but end up with 5 different grow speeds, bud density, stetch, leaf shape -etc
As woodsmantoker said- there is no golden rule... well other than maybe a simple "use the screen to make a wall to wall canopoy", but that's not so much a rule a a brief description of what scrog is.
