flip when ur plant is a little less than half the height that you want the colas to me at when she finishes. nobody can give u a firm timespan.
Non that I would want to use.

Best thing you can do is keep uninterrupted dark period once you flip and keep em healthy, don't overfeed. Don't stress them during flower.
Yes I usually dont bother them, just look at them and water them once a day,
Thats all,
Except that they are unbothered,

If i flip them by 20 that give me 70 days ,

Update,

They are in 1 gallon pots i think, i got lied to,

The hydro shop dude told me they were 3g, but they are 1 gallon pots i think so,

Does 1g and 3g pot would make a difference?
I transplanted these into these Thursday, thinking they are 3 g pots,

They are not even in flower yet and roots are coming out from the bottom,

So if i transplanted them into 3 g tomorrow night would it make a diff in yeild?

So if you guys recommend that it is worth changing them to 3 or 5 gallon pots i can transplant them,

Will it make a difference in yeild?

so i have 21 pots that are 5 gallon,

they are already in 2 gallon pots, so maybe additional 2-3 gallon per pot,

so roughly 40-50 gallon soil. so how many bags would i need? i use god of nectar #4

you can get away with coco feeding twice a week. I feed twice a day because I am using the coco more as a hydro, but u can use it the same as soil.

The benefit of coco is that you know EXACTLY what the plant is getting as far as ph, nutrients, etc. If you ever screw up and see your babies burning or something you can just flush with 2-3 gallons of RO or distilled water, and restart from scratch a day or two later. In soil you just add water and cross your fingers.

I water twice a day, correcting the nutrients in the soil everytime by watering 2x what the soil can hold with fresh correct PH daily and exactly the nutrients the leaves are telling me she needs.

I will be transplanting them to 5 gallon pots tomorrow too

You are going to get lots of different replies. My opinion is that you should leave those leaves on the plant. They are providing a lot of energy to the plant to help it grow. A lot more energy is being provided by those giant leaves than could be supplied by the tiny leaves that would be uncovered by removing them.

Yes I would leave all leaves
Maybe trim 1 budsite at the lowest of the plant that way the upper buds will get a little bigger
