Enough space between plants

moxxorax · #1 03-04-2008, 09:42 AM

I have 7 plants in my grow closet this time around but i am wondering if i have over done it and put too many in the space i have.
The grow box i am using (pictures attatched) is 12" deap by 18" across and 32" wide.
What do you guys think?.
Will they be alright or do i need to prune them as we go?
i have them in a closet grow and they are under a 400 watt HPS light.
any advice greatly recieved.

I would say your space issues depend on the size you want each of the plants to be. You will be restricted and should probably trim as you go, maybe use scrog or something simular...but sounds like you have a little previous experience...draw upon that and Good Luck!

Are you alrady flowering?if not flip the lights... if your already flowering you might be fine if not you'll more than likely need to prune but try and see what happens=)

yeah maybe wait and kill the males then you should have room

Three days into 12/12 and looking to be all fems. I will be trimming the fan leaves as i go. I think i will just let them go and hope they all come through.
more pics as we get bigger.
cheers guys.

thanks man,
i have been so lucky the past three grows have all turned out to be fems.
not sure wether to start pruning the fan leaves or just leave them for a while.

The girls will grow to fill available space. I wouldn't worry too much about it,at worst you have a sea of green.

22 days on 12/12 and they look to be doing ok. lots of flowers and bud sites and they seem to be settleing in together nicely. should get a good crop concidering the size they were when i changed the light cycle.
any comments recieved. with thanks....

Looks great man well done ,

They usually do make room for them selfs. my Grow very similar

I see you,v some fan leafs still did you chop any like you says or did you just leave them
I personally dont like to but with some indica,s its sometimes needed ,

I read in a mag last month of this guy that cuts all leafs off the last 2 weeks then flushes before they finish and they looked great Im going 2 try it on one of mines

Very nice plants man , well done s2k
