I have pretty good flashbacks once in awhile…I was a pistolero in my younger days…can’t believe I lived this long. I have always had one speed…wide open…foot to the floor, now I’m like a slow drive down a country lane…lol…kinda dig the slow lane now…

Im willing to bet there are a couple stories from those days that would be interesting to hear lol. I ran cell cams when i was growing oudoors. Cleared about a 30’ circle on the edge of a bluff, the highwall was faceing west so i gained 4-5 hours of daylight being above the canopy of the hardwoods and eliminated access from the side of the grow. Had 5 deer camera set up on the trails in and out that would send pics to my phone incase someone happened to walk up on them but i dont think anybody but me would have been crazy enough to be there in the first place .

Another lesson learned, painfully, SSA and Medicare at age 65?
Medicare Part B takes 2-3 months to activate, imagine that.
Registration takes one click, but paying and activating, 1-3 months (CYCLE BILLING INVOLVED)
Tri-care dropped me because my Medicare A&B was not activated 3 months prior to my 65 birthday.

Santa done spun back and left me a present lol.
@Low i am a man with questions and you strike me as a man with answers
.
First, how long can i continue to tuck after i flip to 12/12? Like to control the streach. I got my screen a little higher and i dont want her to get away from me and hit the lights . Dont think im there yet im just trying to get an idea of what i can get away with.
Secondly lol, how big do you and @MadamCalamity make the holes in yalls scrog screens? I think i did mine like 3x3 but i didn’t messure anything i just eyeballed it. I think they need to be smaller though.

So I’m usually done tucking by the time I flip, but you can tuck as long as the plant will let you. I give most the branches I’ve left up to this point a chance but remove the ones that aren’t worth it by end of transition.
Don’t get the net trapped in the buds that are forming, they will likely get ripped off on harvest.
First layer I like around 3x3 second layer I like around 4x4. Second layer is mostly just for support and doesn’t do a good job of anything else.
She is looking good

Thank you! So from that overhead view how much longer do you think i should keep tucking? The back corner i aint got full yet and a few sqaures on the sides but its so thick in the middle lol. Last time i had topped 1x so the middle filled in last. This one is backwards . Like growing left handed lol.

Personally when tucking I don’t like any gaps I’ll try to fill all the way to the edges. That said, I’ve flipped at about the same point you are at now multiple times. I still hit my goal. 
if you flipped now you’d likely yield the same if you waited another week. Just direct them to try and fill all the secondary as they grow.

I want to maximize my yeild the best i can just to make it to the next harvest lol. Hopefully ill still have some of the last one when this is finished. That would sweet to have a stock of multiple strains on hand haha. Someday!!
What are signs that ive tucked to much lol? Im gunna keep tucking as long as i can. Every gram counts over here . I aint above firing up a bowl of stems. Ive seen me do it… but i dont wanna keep tucking and mess it up.
In the words of the machine “im higher than senators socks right now”. So i apologize for rambling

Back in my younger years I worked at a place that had multiple overheads on same track. If they got either going good could easily crash the other. And it happened all the time. Now i only get to see mobile cranes, but definitely some big ones
