Well I guess I would say start with good genetics. With that said I found by keeping the temp of the roots close to, or within 10° of ambient temps will keep them tighter.

If your using floros to veg with keep your lights real close.

If your cloning take clones from the bushier plant if you have a choice. I did this four times and the last grow the plants were a bush, thats without training. It was the Apollo strain I grew. Its in my journals if you want to check it out.

If you have trouble there is a product you can use called Dutchmasters Bushmaster I have heard of. Its an additive that slows stretching.

Thats all I can think of.

Hey Cruzer, I was wondering if you had any advice on keeping node spacing tight and close?

Some of the cheap timers have 15 min increments. 15 min on and 30 min off would work.

Yaaa man, im trying to "sort of" cheap out on my first hydro grow, and those damn cycle timers are just so pricey, ANY other suggestion?

Nope, Sorry man. I dont play in dirt much.

Im using 550gph pump I think check out my sig for cabinet build journal.
I went ahead and got a cycle timer. Dam thing cost like $100 but I wanted to do it right. Anyway I run the sprinklers for 3 min and off for 10 min. you need the off time so cant go 24/7.

Hey cruzer, I got a quik question about your aero system, Im doing me own and whats the system with the sprinkler pump?

Are the sprinklers always on? If not whats the timing?

[EDIT] I am refering to your stealthy cabinet grow, In the flower area, Are the sprinklers always on draining back to the rez?

Hey Cruzer.. came across your bubble thread about co2. Im in the same boat. Ive got an aquatek regulator with only a bubble counter and a psi meter. No way to calculate the ppm or the cfh so I can use a calculator and figure out how long to run my regulator for. Any advice would be appreciated!
