So a week ago I decided to start hst the plants to get some side grow…I have bent them all about 3 times each…giving them a couple days to recover b4 doing it again. I also topped them a week ago.
These have progress well this week.
Hey @Simo78 have you taken a really good look at your plants lately to see if anything as far as bugs or mites or anything like that …because your pictures look a little questionable , I’m just curious or if it’s a pH thing which hopefully it is , but if I was you I would do a little investigation and see what’s going on there …
The older leaves have signs of trouble…from b4 i swapped out the coco for perlite a couple weeks back. The coco was getting water logged at the bottom of the pot.
Yesterday
Today. I tied the bigger ones down a bit.
Ok today I have switched my MH for the HPS. I washed out the tub and refilled it with the bloom nutes. Ph is 6 … EC is 1.5

Just a quick photo up date…they have exploded with grow the couple of days durring the 1st part of flowering stretch.
I removed the shade leaves over the last 3 days …bit by bit. They seemed to love it.

I took some clones yesterday but that’s all I had time for, I’ll get back in here n clean all this lower stuff up in the next couple of days.

The girls were getting to close to the light and the light can’t go any higher. So I did some bending n snapping.

Running out of head room. Yesterday I cut the little plastic feet of my exhaust fan, which gave me about half an inch more space to pull my light up into, but that’s all I’ve got.

You need to start tying them down because they’re not going to stop growing and if you’re in flower you do not want to cut them …just start bending them over out of the way , is all you can really do… good luck my friend…

I have been pinching and bending everyday for over a week…its been good…the more I pinch n bend the more that keeps coming through to the top of the canopy.
If you’re in the flower I would stop pinching them and just keep bending them over until they stop growing and start producing bud’s. …
After two weeks of flipping your light to 12 12 I would stop pinching or super cropping as it is called and that’s what you’re doing … I would stop that after two weeks into flower after 3 weeks your plants start to harden off and the stems won’t take that very well and anything after that you will start to stress your plant…
