want opinions. should i flip my scrog now or how long should i wait

[9fingerleafs]

pretty explanatory title. i kinda feel its time to flip but this is only my second try at scrog so i wanna know what other people that uses this technique think. last round i didnt filled the net as i should have and i was left with very few colas. i did what i could to level the canopy of this 3 plants pasically 2 phenos (two of them look the same) so theyre all the same age and treated the same but the one on the right is the winner, im gonna take some clones before fliping

Looks great - fabulous job! Not a scrogger - but - how much do you think they will stretch after flipping? How much vertical room do you have?

I say you wait a week - take your clones, give her a few days to recover and then change the lights.

im actually not gonna run out of height i sould raise the light almost 3 ft, and i have a second net i can put on top with 5 inches extensions so thats not an issue, i just dont want them to start growing up before the net is "filled" so if i wait a week or two i will keep tucking and training

but thats an excellent advice, i wasnt thinking about the stress from taking clones (:

I'm not a scrogger ether, but in my head I have seen my future self and me in detail doing it.
In the future I would weave for a bit horizontal till mostly ful and to grow somemore nodes, then flip and fill in the little space left for the first two weeks of the stretch. I would want some vertical stretch in my future scrog for bud size.
9', it works out perfectly in my head but I can't give you real life experience in the matter and you can't see in my head, or can you????.
good luck and I'm stubbed.

just a bump up to get more opinions. where are the scrogers at?

I'm kinda with MrFurley on this. You typically want an 8 week veg with a scrog. How long have you been in veg? As long as you keep tucking the stretch will be limited by what you're tucking in ime. The more growth tips you expose the more budsites will flourish. Just by looking at photos, if they were mine I'd probably wait 2 weeks. They look great btw, good luck.

thanks guys, those plants are easily 60+ days from seed, i cant remember the exact date but in a week time (sept 25th) its the 60th day from the day i transplanted from solo cups to one quarts, definitely must have already at least 10 days of life so thats that.

the two on the left are very slow growing short plants, didnt like to be topped and fought back several times. i already took clones ONLY from the plant on the right, great structure, lots of branching, dark healthy leaves, etc... i want to give them at least a week but im worried the plant on the right outgrowing the two on the left, the right doesnt have much space to tuck down colas and the other two do, i try to maintain a leveled canopy so idk. i guess well see. if i dont see the other plants growing in a few days ill flip, i only care about the plant on the right

btw ill create a topic once i flip to flower and the excitement begins, its painfully slow to watch the first 8 weeks of any grow so i wont update much here either. again thanks for weighting in (:

For what it's worth, I would wait too. I haven't used a screen since last year but i kinda miss it
