Scrog newb

Im a newb 3rd grow first grow gournal. So I vegged my plants under a t5 I need new bulbs so they Stretched pretty bad.. They where pretty decently sized when I put them under there screen so I'm still trying to fill it up the way it should be. Have 5 critical and the 0ther 11 are Supposedly cherry pie. The left side has the critical and has been vegged better than the right side
16 total in a 8-4 tent 5 gal buckets
Using a cool little mix of osomcote plus 1/1.5 tbsp each bucket and earth juice brew
2 600 watt lights
My question is when should I In Induce flower I really would like at least 24 oz dry
I'm really hoping I can pull those numbers would be amazing. Also im using a cooltube and i can bring it to about 8-12 inches maybe less should i lower the light? im at 18 inches right now. Ill keep updates

If your girls can take it get that light low bro.
Flipping the switch,anytime you feel the net has filled out but keep in mind the scrog will keep filling out till your girls stop growing.
from your pics i would say your about ready now.

Looks good!I would flip them straight away.

for sure thx for the advise. I'm probably gonna wait 5-7 more days fill this baby out to my liking.I know it's gonna be crowded but hey it's better than not right?
Lets hope I can get 24 + oz pray for me ! Haha
7 more days and watch em go nuts hopefully this "cherry pie" isn't a total let down
