When to flip these ladies?

Hi all. Just on six weeks from seed with these girls. I know it's a bit of a 'how long is a piece of string' question, butt what to look for to switch to flower? I want to try and get full coverage, and I'm really happy with how my topping and LST is going for a first grow, starting to fill out. I know they are going to basically double during stretch, and am planning to use a trellis net to keep the canopy even. Any particular thing you look for, or any indication from the photos how long I should be waiting? Really really happy with the layout and all the bud sites at the top of the canopy. Any help appreciated.

For sure will double 50-100% in size. Just make sure you have enough room and that your light allows for that! Of course you can continue training a few weeks into flower. From what I see I would say you could let it go another week maybe two? Nice looking plants and clean looking environment. I think you will be just fine going off intuition :)

Very kind of you, cheers mate. That was pretty much my gut as well, funnily enough the one at front right was planted a week later to replace a dud, but you'd hardly know it to look at her. But up close she'll need the extra two weeks I think, so the others will just get an extra week of veg I guess. I actually lost a top shoot on the back left which is my most vigorous, and the other shoot started getting crazy big so I FIMmed it, and it looks like I'm going to get four shoots out of that, soooo that two weeks will give a chance to see what that does. Exciting!

Wow I really do need to be ready for that stretch! I have about another 3-4 feet I can grow without getting close to the light. Did you throw the net over and do a prune then flip?
