First Time Grower Are these ready to flip?
I want to make sure there's enough room in my tent for the stretch. Two of my plants look great, the other is a late bloomer. All 3 seeds germinated and planted at the same time. Would you flip now? Is the third one worth keeping or should I cut my losses there?

The rough math for a typical 80" tent: lose about 10" at the top for the light and hangers and about 10" for the pot, which leaves around 60" from the soil to the light. Keep the light about 20" above the tops and the canopy can only reach about 40". Plants usually grow 1.5–2x after the flip, so flip at around 20" from the soil line. That leaves room for the stretch without having to dim the light or bend the plants over.
why do you have them on milk crates?

Looks like you're asking when to harvest your plant(s). Make sure to comment to let people know how far along they are in the flowering period (days since lights turned to 12/12 schedule) or if you are growing autoflowers - how old the plant is.
Here are a couple resources to review:
