To flip (12/12) or not to flip? that is the question.

Before I get flamed into holy fail and back for posting this I could really use some more honest/experienced input.

I have 6 plants in 5gal pots (fox farm ocean forest soil with added perlite)
All (execpt one) have been LST'd. All have been supercrop'd and topped or fim'd.

They have been vegging for exactly 5wks tomorrow (monday...or technically thats today already but yeah) on an 18/6 schedule under 1 600w hps light.

They have been fed only Fox farm grow big and big bloom up until this point. I usually water 3-4 gal of water every 5-6 days (the 5gal pots tend to retain moisture well) feeding with the fox farm nutes every other watering.

I had a pH problem earlier on but think i have corrected it. it was slightly high (7.0) now im in the 6.5 range on avg.

All have turned around except my kings kush. its been the runt of the litter since day one and is the only one not LST'd (i might do it before 12/12). now its the only plant i believe has a slight pH problem still.

I intend to flower under 2 600w hps with 3 plants under each.

I already have alternating nodes and all plants show preflowers throughout.

I intend to use big bloom, tiger bloom and grow big during flowering with possibly some molasses.

Strains are:
Kings kush (ghs)
acapulco gold (bf)
Critical+ (dinafem)
Strawberry cough (dp)
Sensi Star (paradise)
Original Skunk #1 (Seedsman)

Questions:
1) should i flip now or wait for 1 more wk (6wk veg)?

2) with these plants and the listed setup how likely am i to reach my harvest goal of a 1lb harvest (total dry weight)?


any/all input more than appreciated.

shouldnt make a lot of difference mate, and you should be close to pulling that of them. good luck

FLIP still like 2 months after you flip and they will double in size at least if not triple

I think the LST should keep most of that in check no?

this is the longest ive let plants go in veg. usually i do 2 1/2-4wks max. i wanted to ride out 6wks but if you all say to do it then i guess maybe i should just do it. lol

its hard for me to pull the trigger though. in my first few grows i couldn't wait to flip...now the more i learn the more reluctant i am to flip em. lol

id let them go ONE more week and flip. thats just me.

go for it m8. they gona be massive at harvest. quality grow
