SCROG Remove net for flower?

I’m doing my first SCROG been something I wanted to try for years. I was thinking that I might take it down after my transition period because I don’t see any use for it being there besides support but I don’t want to lose any fat colas due to the net cutting. I could see bud rot and a few other things becoming an issue. So I was thinking I’ll leave it on for my first two weeks of flower (Transition) and then cut it down so I can focus on healthy circulation around my plants. This is a 10x5 canopy with 3 Gavita DE 750s.

IMO if your scroging right you might need to keep the net in place for support. When you flatten the structure a lot and the buds get big there is just more leverage on the branches and they bend a ton. Hell that sometimes happens when I just grow straight vertical. If you plan your veg/stretch you shouldn’t really have (large) buds growing into the net... if you do just snip that square out.
