I'm asking because I too am about to do a scrog and was thinking that they would be fine if I trained them into the screen only during the growth spurt of 12/12.

@ kmac9119 - I'm doing something similar with the rotational grow. My plants are about 3 weeks from going into flower. Can you post a couple pics of how yours are doing now that you placed the screen over?

Here is my plan based on what I have learned in my first grow. I plan on doing a rotational grow using my two tents and get a harvest every 9 weeks.
For me it looks to be just a matter of timing and good training in the veg room to get this to happen. I am starting my new beans and clones right about the time the last grow goes to flower. This gives me 9 weeks. In that 9 weeks the new veggies will get FIM'ed at the 4th node and then when they get up to 12 inches I will start pulling the tops back down using LST techniques to further induce branching out the lower growth. When the time comes to move them to the flowering tent they will be no more than 12 inches tall and no problem to place under the scrog screen that is 10" above the soil.
All of this works because of my close lighting and a minimum amount of stretching while in veg. If I was coming out of the veg tent with 4 foot skinny things I can see that this plan would not work, but I really don't plan to stretch my plants that much in their first 9 weeks.
If you would like to see this plan in action, please visit my grow log where you can see the SCRog at the 1 week point of flowering and stretching nicely to fill the screen. This plant was put in the flowering tent at 9 weeks, and is going to be a monster filling up about 1/3 of a 3sq. meter screen. Once you get them in there and flip the switch to 12/12 you can expect to see a 40-50% stretch, depending of course on strain and conditions.
