Try to keep threading her through the netting while the stretch is happening then allow vertical growth. You will need to watch out for poor airflow beneath the net too. Maybe defoloiate the big fans a bit which can help with humidity. Scrogging for me is better done prior to flowering so u can fill all the gaps ideally but spreading the bud sites out for more light to them is never a bad thing. Looking good mate.
How would i know when the stretch is over ??Not too long just won't be as controlled or planned out. Ideally you don't just want a plant support which is easy to end up with. They allow each main its own space but for me it is about getting light to the whole branch if you have room. Following my first crop after 10yr break failed at flower stage ( met as did years before) all because an electricity cable wire in an unrelated room burnt out leaving me no juice for 2 days. So following root rot loss of entire hydro I flowered a mother plant of super iced grapefruit. She had 600w hps and half a grow room scrogged out. I managed nearly a magical 10oz in scrog from her . Love the twchnique if height is limited. Dont worry . You are doing good and i am not sure about a 4 week stretch period but let her grow vertical as soon as she finished stretching.
Usually when you notice her female hairs start to show themselves and bud sets forming . This is usually 2 weeks from the flip , 4 week stretch is not one I have heard before. The buds build in length and girth so increases plants size but that is buds not stretch related. Do you have any white hairs yet or buds forming ?How would i know when the stretch is over ??
No I just flip them this Monday.. should i be seeing bud forming already??Usually when you notice her female hairs start to show themselves and bud sets forming .

No don't panic. I wasn't too sure as you said about stretching for 4 weeks. 4 weeks stretching would be a 1st for me to witness . Usually in the NEXT 2 weeks keep feeding the growing tips under the net as they pop up through the holes. Use the stretch to completely fill the net out. Might be a good idea to remove anything that won't see light below the canopy(LOLLIPOPPING). By this I mean leaves and tiny sprouting growth. Once the net is filled or you see the 1st PISTILS( Long white hairs at NODES( bud sites)) , you can then let her start growing up through the holes. You should start seeing them in about a week or so time now. The purpose of scrog is to allow light to the forming buds so any visible will stack up and produce worthy ones and not small loose and virtually pointless once dried POPCORN buds. There are lots of excellent diaries of scrogs to look over on here for clarity and I have highlighted words often used in them so they make sense to you if you read any or hear the terms. All looks well for you with the pics so please don't worry and enjoy your grow. Things will get very interesting from this point. prepare to be amazed at how your ladies change and form. With you all the way mate. PeaceNo I just flip them this Monday.. should i be seeing bud forming already??
What I mean by saying so and so is that they could look better ..Looking ok from here. Lots of heads flowering. What is the so so you mean ?. Just have to make sure all the buds can get to light , so any that won't ever get light,low down near the base, need taking out. If no light reaches them they won't develop into anything worthy of the nutes but your mains will benefit from their sacrifice.
