I swapped my lights to 12/12 kind of out of panic, I had to raise my buckets 8 inches and was concerned about the loss of height.

Any idea how much taller these will get in flower? or a potential yield amount?
I was gonna make a smartass comment and say ~a#, but I love the roots man. Nice job.

Seriously though expect them to approximately double in size.

2-3x stretch. I dont know jack about DWC so my best guess on yield is "about a pound" lol. If you are that worried about height, super crop?
Damn you Joe. You did it again. I'm on an IPad and can't type that fast, lol.

I usually flip when they reach the 1st trellis @13" above the net lid.
I have another trellis 14" above that.
Most strains end up around 36-40" above the lid.

thanks guys. I was worried I was too early but it seems they are plenty grown.

They have about 55inches from bucket lid to lightbulb and I can tie them down if I have to I guess....

A freaking pound would be unexpected to say the least, might need to look into tumblers.

I had a $50 crappy LED in the veg tent, and a $90 crappy LED in the flower tent. Now both lights are in the flowering tent, since I decided not to do perpetual harvests. I can grab exact models off amazon if you want them
Yeah you likely wont be getting a pound from those lights but i could see a 1/4-1/2

Just for reference, most folks are able to yield 1 gram/ watt of lighting.
If your flower light uses 100 watts, then 100 grams would be normal.
Well they both claim like 1000-1500 watts each, but I believe at the wall, they pull 235 combined.

So rule of thumb would be roughly 10 ounces?

Probably more like 8. But being your first grow.... probably be happy if u get 4. But 8 is possible.

I have made sooooo many mistakes, and my system needs multiple upgrades all around. I didn't want to make bigger investments til I was at least a novice(which I still am not). As long as it doesn't turn out to be 7% THC dirt weed ill be happy with any amount lol.

Breathe, relax, and learn from the experience.
This is supposed to be fun.

I feel that, It was a lot of fun in the seedling stage. But now ive got a whole lot of worries. The sex should show in a couple weeks and that will be a huge weight of my shoulders.... hopefully.
