Your doing great purpleman
Nothing can kill a new Growers buzz like a bad first grow, it is few and far between that a plant let alone five look like the ones that you tried out and in my grow book that was a bad shake of a stick for you.
I think you are grow to be pleasantly surprised after this one.

I'm definitely here for you as is a lot of other Growers on GWE.

Here is my advice:
As long as you don't need to worry about height ( remember plants double and triple when flipped )
I would top the three on the left side at the third or fourth set of branches when you have 5 to 7 sets.
You ask why not top the four plant on the right? Because I can see multiple top on it already.

I would just keep them as level as you can to each other and flip in about two weeks after you top them.
you will get a bigger yield if you trade the Christmas tree look for a small flat bush, plus in a indoor grow the top of the plant receives the best light, just keep the colas in the diameter of the bucket.

You got this!

Looking great purpleman. I'm impressed how the runt of the litter has made such a comeback .
I'd say, if topped the blue widow(s) would like about a 2ftX2ft area each(less with training?). Don't know about the other 2.
BW pic taken yesterday, day 65 since flip (5 week veg). Gives you an idea of diameter.

@MR Furley just keep the colas in the diameter of the bucket. What would the purpose of this be and why please
I have never heard of this before and am curious
 
She looks beautiful! I'm gonna take a better look today in regards to topping. I'd like to make the switch by the end of the month if I can.

If you cut once and don't keep pulling all your tops flat just the two upper as needed it will slow down the upper growth long enough for the two/three set of lower branches to catch up level, you can keep all the tops inside the diameter of the bucket so your plants dont get too wide, but still benefits from multi tops.

The trick is to top, recover/relevel and flip.
 
Well, it's a big day. Not only is it Easter, and the day AFTER 4/20, but it's exactly 2 months since germination of the oldest of my ladies. As Furley said, the youngest and tiniest of the four has taken the lead on size! I just switched their time cycle and nutrients to bloom, so HERE WE GROW!

So excited for you😊 make sure to keep pulling them down for the next 2 to 3 weeks as they're going to want to stretch
 
great looking plants purple man , on a liter note I tried hanging those fly traps in my room and just kept walking into them yes I hung them out of the way lol but when shifting plants around, what a PITA lol
 
well, I can't move my plants around or actually go in the box, but when I'm reaching in to water them I always get stuck on one! They are doing the trick though, they've caught a ton of gnats!
 
10 days since the 12/12 switch. The babies have doubled in height. Everybody looks healthy and happy. A few brown tips on the lowest leaves, so I jacked the nutes up to full dose. I'm holding my breath because everything is going so well! I know I've got a long ways to go. Not sure about any pruning since I've already gone in to bloom? Furley, you mentioned tying them down. I don't think I'll run out of vertical room, but if they keep like they are going I may. Let me know if you guys have any suggestions at this point. Thanks!

when I tie stuff down its to open the plant up ,I found that if you poke a hole low down on your cloth pot ,then I stick some of that green plant wire in the hole and stretch it up to stem (note the further down you make the hole the further out you can tie to plants)this will give light to all the branches
 
Yeah, jarhead, I get the whole light thing. My plants have bushed out and filled up their home so much that I don't think I could tie one down without intruding on another's space. It looks like one sold bush in there now, not four! I wasn't sure how much trimming I should attempt at this point. I topped three of them, two weeks before the switch, but that's the only thing I've done. Should I remove some of the fan leaves or just let 'em roll?
 
I read that giving them a trim just before bloom and then at 3 weeks increases the yield ,I've always topped and tied down, when I trim I really trim them maybe to much but they always bounce right back , One grow I posted pics after a trim and Nebula asked if I was going to trim them ,I told her I just did she came back with oh you can do much more than that and I have lol
