Good morning brother Happy Christmas Eve. Going to flip them on Christmas Day. (sweet).
It’s amazing you have from what I can see 2472 leaves and not a single one of them has a burnt tip. Unbelievable.
A week after flipping I suggest using the vegetable fruit yield enhancer that you got back in the summer on every 3rd feeding. Don’t forget on your initial feed Go full strength (as per the directions on the bottle) after that I use 3 mil per gallon every third feed. This will add additional beneficial microbes and humic for better nutrient up take.
I hope the flowering stage go successful as your vegetation did. You hit every mark to 100% perfection minus the one watering mistake. (I had to throw that out there 
)
I’m going to take a nap as tonight I take a 
trip to the magical enchanted Forest in hopes to see Santa Claus 
turn into a dragon 
, a watermelon 
, or something cool like fried chicken 
.

Amazing is all I can say. White Rabbit is the 
a solid 4 hours of visual and advanced light effects in my head that even Pink Floyd’s best writers couldn’t produce. From 10:00 p.m. - 1:30 a.m. totally speechless…
I wanna go back!
I am a believer now. If you got nobody to play with, play with yourself.

Born in the 60’s growing up in the 70’s with a bunch of hippie sisters tripping was the thing.
Losing touch with it for over 30 years due to raising a family, times have really changed. I trust nothing today. When the kids were grown and flew the coop It really was a scary thought finding LSD in this day and age but the urge to trip was always on my mind.
Then came legalization of ’s. To me they were always a much cleaner of a trip and Lasted 1/2 the time of LSD. At my age it’s hard to find a friend to trip with when you want to trip so I found that on occasions if I wanted to, I had to do it myself. And brother I love it! 
I find that holidays like Halloween and Christmas with all the wonderful light displays is a total waste of an opportunity to trip if you don’t. (No one likes to waste 
)
You say, “it’s all new to me” I’m assuming this means you’ve never done it? It’s such a difficult thing to describe.
There’s a certain pleasure I personally get from knowing I crossed a line in my head and I kind of know where it’s going to take me but you’re never really sure but you know you’ll always come back and it’s always worth the ride!
Something as simple as watching Alice in wonderland or Pink Floyd The Wall on tv makes it almost a pre-planned journey. But sometimes I’ll just like to take them and see where it takes me and it’s always an amazing place.
I hope you get your opportunity

That was a very helpful explanation. Thank you. I guess the knowing you’ll always come back is interesting.

Still on track. Fed at 650ppm. Runoff between 850-1050ppm.
Leaves are looking good, but I’m using every bit of the 4x4 width of the tent. It’s wall to wall. Pulled clones and removed some suckers today. I’m a bit worried about good airflow though.

I told you this was going to happen. This is only the beginning of the flip. (Assuming you flipped Christmas).
When watering/feeding do you pull each girl out of the tent? You know there going to almost double the size here shortly.
Like @Bunger64 said chasing good air flow is not going to be easy. You blew the walls out in veg. Running a second tent could cost a fortune in electric bill.
Truthfully, I believe 2 photos for a 4x4 gives them the best opportunity for a comfortable full size grow with plenty of room for training and manipulating to achieve maximum growth and yield.
Once I did 9 autoflowers in a 4x4 with 3 of them monsters and I learned my lesson really fast. I cut it back to 6 autos and that pushes the limit sometimes.
4x4 tents and lights are cheap now days. It’s the electric bill that bites you in the ass 
Unfortunately, continuing the way you’re going is going to lead to some headaches and true challenges very soon. You do have an advantage on the environment because it’s winter. You would be in a serious pickle if it were summer indoors with a crop that big in such a small area.
On a positive note, the girls are very receptive and appreciative to their nutrient regiment and care you’ve been able to give them as they look flawless and happy as can be.
Here we’ve had 56° for a high and the humidity has been extremely high due to on and off continuous rains (but I’m not growing anything).
I wish I could be more help with a more positive solution to your space dilemma I just don’t see one 
other than more space in your current scenario.

Think I’m going to order a 5x5 tent and move all my equipment into it. Not sure……

Howdy, @Lostgirl. Happy New Year!
A little drama here yesterday. I watered Wednesday with great runoff numbers and planned on watering this morning (Saturday). But, when I got home from work yesterday (Friday) and looked in the tent, to my despair, two of the 4 plants were totally wilted. Like all of the top colas were sagged over 180 degrees and limp. I nearly died.
I pulled the plants out of the tent and mixed up water and fed. Within minutes they started to rejuvenate. I staked two of the plants (which I would have needed to do anyway) and tied them up. In my haste, however, I went in a little strong at 750ppm with runoff between 1150-1250ppm across the board.
Next feed I’ll drop down to about 500. I’ve been feeding 2gal a plant but think I will up the amount on the next feed to get just a bit more runofff. Next feed will include that microbe life veg enhancer as well.
Close call…. Nearly ruined it. Guess I’ll be watering in 2-day intervals through the stretch. Pictures from this morning.

That was close. Do you think they’re eating more or should I say faster.? They’ll bounce back fast. 1150-1250 for them isn’t that bad as they’ve proven their pigs and can handle it. But yes I would drop my next feed.
It’s very common to have plants that are the same size that started the same day drink differently.
I had one girl that ate every single day and two other plants the exact same size eat every third day. You might want to pay attention to each one individually as they get bigger their needs will change.
The picture above they look fine
Did you flip on Christmas like you had planned?

I think they’re eating faster to be honest. It was every 3 days. Then I found myself watering every 2.5 day. This time around it was 24hrs.
I flipped on the 27th. I planned on Christmas and did change my lights on the 25th, but I realized I forgot to change the timer on the extra light I added 
… so, I realized that 2 days later and adjusted that one light on the 27th.
The extra light is on an electronic timer, not controlled with my app… my bad 
. The middle light is the one I added. It’s a Viparspectra 250w so I have a total of 650w, about 14” above canopy currently.
