Assuming because first time with these I had somewhat quality light and plenty of it…these are stacking so tight and low I’m having to lift these lower leaves out of the dirt…do I need to raise the light and make them stretch?..I hate to because always before I would wish they would stop getting taller…remember they are autos and prolly 13? Says since popped up.

Why not reduce some of the top-soil?
take an inch away?
Or trim off the leaves that are the lowest, which will slow growth.

@PurpNGold74 …yo!?..you leaving me feeling insecure here…where ya at!?..
. For real, hope all’s good with ya.
Man I got a MESS here,front left I felt I HAD to cut a bunch of HUGE fans leaves. These things are SO DENSE. Learned me a lesson about haveing enough lights for a change…insane how dense these are…they are like hedge that the football disappeared into in the yard when you were a kid! …for real tho…wishing I’d but then in bags for sure…here’s an update photo…I just trimmed the hell out of one,to see if it handles it…not sure what to do here…cracked already the main stalk on the farthest back plant…tied it down closing the wound for a few days…think it’s going to make it…got them way to close togather I know…but kind of had to!..I’m considering trying to trim the hell out of them…make them all,like one or two cola plants since I’m in this shape???..they are AUTOS THO…can they handle that much cutting?..do it a little each day? Or a large amount…let it recover and go again???
Or just let em go, and see WTH happens?
HELP! LOL

Btw…I tried topping 2 of them…in the back and the lefter one…if that matters?
Thinking of using one of those and cutting EVERYTHING, but those tops off it and see what happens? Not like I’ma gett a great yield like this anyway?
How would you go about doing that?..cut all at once??..ect…ect?
Feel free to use this as a crash test dummy if you have ideas…lol
!
BTW. I HAVE RAISED THE LIGHT ALOTT A FEW DAYS AGO TO TRY AND “UNBUSH” IT…LMAO…NEVER WOULD HAVE THOUGHT I COULD HAVE GOTTEN TOO BUSHY…IF I HAD PLENTY OF SPACE I WOULD BE ESTATIC ABOUT IT…SMDH

…ya saw you had been here and thought well chit…he got much to say…I’m just jammed up for space. These things are insane thick. Forest time iv had these ‘decent’ lights from start. And I have set them down on em tight like I’d do with my weaker lights. Had no idea the jungle I would create!
Was considering since I’m not gonna get a lot out of them anyway, maybe just trying to get say 3? Kolas on each one(trimming hell out of them)?
Already raised light way up and either helping em stretch or I guess they could have been about to do that anyway(but it appears to have worked a little).
Broke half of one off(two big stems) trying to bend them) they for whatever reason are really fragile.
How much at a time can I cut off them say per day, without stunning them to death, or deep depression ?
BTW. Now I see what I can do with these lights…I wanna drop more seeds!..but you know…I got a ol’lady…

New pictures of whole plant will help.
You could set the lights to 12/12 and find out with a pretty quick turnaround. Maybe harvest by mid Jan? Give or take a couple weeks

Grab your ax or shears and get in there. They won’t mind. It’s not flower, and they are getting unruly. Don’t go crazy but a good thorough defoil should help a good amount

That was painful! I waited too long dammit, seemed an enormous amount hit the dirt…now that I have gotten down in there where I can seem,the “brushpile” has forced it to stretch way more than should have.(my fault of course for waiting to long)
Hopefully that much work on them didn’t freak them out!
Onward we go…lol
what’s happening man? I just happened to notice my page here says something about 318 posts I guess I have made,and my first thought was…that’s prolly 315 questions that @PurpNGold74 has answered for me! LOL…thinking I should say THANK YOU man! It’s been a lot bs from me and you’ve been awesome… not only impressed with your knowledge but also your ability to relay it clearly. Even more than that though is the time you make to give that advise for free. Your are admired and appreciated (gay as that may sound!LMAO)
Meanwhile the bad guys pretty much got a wrap already on the AFC NORTH…smh…unless they go totally awol from here out. Just don’t get how such a quality dude can turn into a ravens fan…smdh.

We got a wrap on the whole AFC! Haha much love my brother from another. Happy to be of assistance. Sorry Life’s been foot to ass with me for… 
forever… ud think I would be accustomed to it by now but… still catches me off guard.
Anyway it’s my absolute pleasure to help around here. A blessing to have a mind that can retain and another blessing to verbally throw up wherever I can as often as possible . I’m sure eventually you’ll be leading noobs to the promise land that is harvest time before you know it. Hell I’ll bet you have more insight then you give yourself credit for right now. Still a helicopter parent but alas you win some you lose some… unless you’re Joe Burrow or whatever Pittsburgh’s QB name is, then you can lose them all for all I care

LMAO, ya the ass kicking never seem to cease. Smh. Iv tried to make myself NEVER say “what’s next” cause life seems to think like “challanged accepted”. Then there’s always that “what doesn’t kill us” BS…lol…maybe I just wanna be weak!.
Anyway, hope that shit gives you a break!
I sure the hell have learned a lesson here. Several actually. Mostly I will never place more than one plant in the same medium.
Also, I tried topping 2 out of 3 of these and it appears the one I did not seems most healthy. Although there are lots of other factors, this one was also the runt of the crew that I wasn’t sure would even make it. + Thought I might had killed it when it had bad helmet problem from the start.
Still a jungle in here and they have started to flower to far to jack with too much now. I actually cut ALOTTA shit when it was already trying to, which likely hasn’t helped. Just trying to manage the cluster iv got myself in best I can at this point! LMAO.
Nah I enjoy talking with ya plants or not !
Here a few pics…
