    Default Answered: Flip or veg longer?

    Alright lads,

    This is only my third photo grow and second proper Scrog, I’m unsure wether to veg longer or just flip now.

    They don’t seem to have many tops, but the net is already bowing from growth, should I just flip and keep tucking until the smaller branches reach the net and fill it that way?

    Strains are
    2 x Bubba Slush (bubba kush x gelato)
    2 x Bubba Kush

    They are 5.5 weeks old, 3.5 weeks in these 16ltr pots

    And pointers would be great

    Looks. Like you've got a bit of space yet to veg them for longer.

    Personally I'd flip now mate. Your going to have some tucking to do when they stretch and its gonna be tight for space imho

    I think I’ll give this a go, it’s got to the point where I can’t really tuck them anywhere else because there’s so many big fan leaves

    Nice one lewis
    After defol, u will notice how much true space uve got left to fill the scrog, i would under do it just a lil bit, if it isnt a cut where u can estimate the stretch and volume of new side branches, anyway, when my tent is over crowded, i tend to take off un wanted growth.. litteraly cutoff the branch from the base, we dont need branches overlapping each other, etc, so go with your heart and dont stress out about cutting off branches and leaves u doing a great job mukka
