Day 51
Took off all the training bras so the ladies can swing in the wind during flowering

I will probably flip in the next few days

Looking good

You'll want to tie them down again once flower stretch begins... Some will appear to move to the area with higher par because the base stems will get more rigid and tend to be more bent upwards as it grows if it isn't secured at a point.

Keeping them tied down just at the current bend will ensure the colas grow straight upwards from that point.

Thanks! Guess I’ll be putting the hooks back in then.
At least they were free for a while

Should I remove fan leaves before switching [mention]TheUltimateNoob [/mention]

They are a bit untidy on top

I agree with@PsyCLown

Let them grow out a bit.

You can expect a height increase by a factor of around 2.7x from flip to end of flower stretch - so plan accordingly.

I always defoliate at the flip, then at least 2 more times in flower.

What is the netting for?
Try keep everything flat?

I reckon you can flip to flower now if you'd like, they're going to stretch too.

I thought you were going to do a scrog and weave the plants through the net.

Yes, just trying to keep a flat canopy and I can hopefully space the colas out evenly too
Cool, I will flip today

Yo man! Have you tried this method before? 

I have run into some real problems like this before. 

If I were you, I would do your spacing now with the colas, and let them grow through the net for a week. 

If you don't, the issues I have noticed are the following. 

Where you keep the plant under the net, the colas form small... Many... But small and nothing to talk of... 

The main Cola is so sensitive yo... You open it up and flip right away, and all the energy gets used by the lower coolers trying to make something of themselves... They don't... And you lose out big time on Cola size. 

My advice is do the Cola separation, veg for another week, or more... For the plants to be about 10-15cm above that net, then flip. Let them stretch without adjusting them again, you adjusted them earlier already... The stretch is different in a scrog than it is on plants without training. You apply the formula to only what's above the net... So roughly double whatever is above the net will be your final height.... If you work with triple then you should be safe with headroom. 

You might need an additional layer of netting now though... To keep the fat colas from flopping over!

Thanks for the advice @CreX , nope, first go at this, most I ever did before this was to top once.
I have lowered the net and gently pulled through the colas and done the seperation:

The net will be mainly for support then and not real scrog, I will try that next time maybe

If anyone in the Centurion area is interested in a rooted clone from the Lithium OG Kush above PM me, I have run out of space and have 2 so they are free to the first takers

If I still stayed in wierda park I'd take them, but unfortunately am back in the cape, will message a mate maybe he has space
