Do my plants look ready for flowering (12/12) after topping?

Hi all! Do these plants look ready to flip to 12/12? Or would it be better to wait longer? They are on day 65 of veg (18/6) since germination, and I last topped them about 5 days ago. I was planning to wait 10 or so days after topping to flower, but am concerned with how much of the tent they have taken up at this point.

This is my first indoor grow (I have previously grown outdoors), so I have never had to consider when to flower; it just happened. Nor have I had to consider plants getting too large for the space or worry about ventilation if the plants get too big, so I am concerned if I veg longer I may outgrow the 4x4 tent. Thanks for any input!

Also, if anyone has any suggestions for how to light-proof the air intake vents that'd be much appreciated; I will be running the lights at night to keep heat down.

Yep switch asap. I think those vents are supposed to flap open/inwards by the negative pressure of the exhaust fan turning on then when it flicks off the flaps should close back down partially light sealing the vent. Thats my take on the design of those tent vents anyways. If your talking about the rectangular vents at the bottom of the tent that is
