I know what you're saying about wasting time with males and also the screen. It'll be a while before you see preflowers though. It can take 4-8 weeks of veg, maybe even longer with CFL's. I would start Scrogin somewhere in this time frame, preflowers or not.
One option is to take clones as soon as the plants are ready to give them. Label the clones and flower the mother plants you have now. Once you find out their gender you can discard the male clones and mother.
With the screen it's kinda up to you. You can accomplish nearly the same thing with a lot of LST until you sex them, but eventually you'll want to get the screen in to try and fill it.
One thing with Scrog is that it's easier to do when you know how much the plants stretch in flower. Yours look very indica dominant, so I'd try to fill in the screen at least 70% before switching the lights.
Something else to keep in mind for Scrog, you can just cut the screen to fit your cab and then cut it in half, so each plant has their own screen. In case you do get a male, it will be an easy fix and no worries about pollinating the other when you're ripping him out of the screen. It also makes it much easier to flush and re-pot if needed, and turn them from time to time.
But yeah, more lights! :thumbsup:
