Strain: (10) OG Kush (Old cut, maybe 15-20+ years)
Containers: (10) 2 gallon Air Pots (yellow bottom)
Room: GrowLab GL145L (5' x 10')
Lights: (2) 600w bare GE bulbs
Exhaust: 745 CFM 8" C.A.P. Valueline, 8 x 24" Phresh Scrubber, 8 x 24" Phresh Duct Muffler
Intake: Passive, just have an open window. But I won't do that again.
Water/Nutrients: Most of the House & Garden line (excepting Aminos and Algen), 32g trashcan elevated 2' for a res, and blumats.

After my last grow had to be torn down due to flooding my entire life flipped upside down and I ended up a newly minted bachelor with a lot of extra space (and time) on my hands. Did a lot of reading and was blown away by the simplicity and yields of bare bulb vert, so I decided to give it a go with a couple of donuts around 600s and see how it goes.
The setup right now is five OG Kush (a cut gifted to me by a friend who's been growing it for a good long time now) per bulb in coco. Blumats are used for watering and are hooked up in a loop which runs back to a 32g trashcan. Using the House and Garden line and following the schedule for a four week veg and ten week flower.
With some help from another thread the climate is now under control, with air being pulled from outside and exchanged twice a minute the temps stay at 75-76 consistently.
They look a bit pissed right now unfortunately. I just realized tonight that my ph pen was off by .6 so these were getting water that was much higher than I'd like and causing leaf twists and folding.
Once that sorts itself out though, I'm a bit at a loss for next steps. If I don't plan on setting up a vertical scrog is there anything that really needs to be done other than letting them grow, and giving it the flip in a week to ten days? Or any other suggestions? I've never grown the strain or vertically, so I'm not quite sure how to proceed.
Right after installing the blumats (I wasn't able to get a copy of photoshop to clean these up, will do later for sure)

. Keeping the tip of the bulb at the top of the plants during stretch will encourage vertical growth. If you wanted less vertical and more horizontal growth you would simply drop the bulb into the canopy for the whole flower period.
