Switching to flower?

These 4 White Widow plants are about 5 or 6 weeks in Veg. I started bending branches down at a young stage just to mold the shape. I've topped them several times though out there veg stage and defoleated once 5 days ago. They are in 3 gallon smart pots. Tent height is 5'4". Floor to max light height is 49" with carbine filter above lights. Current plant heights is 21" from floor. My question is when should I switch to flower.. branches still seem quite flimsy for buds... this is my first Indoor go at this. Thinking a scrog net is the route I should go as well... Thoughts ? Advice?

So basically the plant doubles in height after the flip (rarely triples). So, you just do the math and determine how tall the plant can get (and still maintain enough distance from the light's highest position).

Week 6 complete. Going on week 7. Plants are showing signs of nutrition burn or a lack of? I have been giving straight water the last 2 feedings. Feedback
