I've got a 1x2 1x2 and 2 metre high tent, How long do I veg for is my main concern??, I don't want the stretch to ruin my grow its my first time growing in a tent, They first popped through the soil a month ago today bang on I've been keeping a grow diary i bought.

Little info on my grow.

I'm growing in coco they are getting the "light feeding" off their website schedule and are getting every nute and additive going and are in 16L Rhizo Pots and are flourishing.

They are really taking off now and starting to grow they are 2 different strains ,Good old White Widow and Royal Cheese both off royal queen seeds.

How long do I let them grow more do I flip them now or do I let them grow a few more weeks then flip?

I would plan on them doubling in size. Temps can get sketchy in a tent especially with tall plants.

So just say I'm looking at them, then imagine them doubled in size with the stretch?

Also while there in flower do i keep everything running like my fan running blowing air around, My 4' inline fan bringing fresh air in also my filter do I keep everything running lol Might sound like a dumb question to some but to me I'm learning as i go.

Yes you want everything running especially the fans. Air circulation should be at the very top of your list in a tent.

As a rule of thumb when I am dialing in a spot, I try to have the canopy at 75% full max before I flip. If your using netting figure a nice top in every square should fill it up with good air movement and light etc.. you could hope for 5-7 grams a square.

Obviously this is assuming everything else is covered.

I think nurrgle is correct with the 75% rule. Plants gain height in flowering but in my experience not near as much.
