I

Yea i know what you mean. But i had planned to veg for a few month. BUDGET REASONS. I have a 400w mh/hps comming in two months. And i know they're going to get bigger once i put them under it.This is why i want to start LST so by the time i meet the dead line for hps id have a nice even canopy thus the larger container so that i dont run into root bound. Ive been budgetting all the way on fixed income. Im just trying to strategize. And stretch my experience at the same time you know.
here 6 plants in 3 gallon pots in a 6ft x 4 ft room, with 2 x 600w hps
for a 2ft x 4 ft room you really need a 600w or reduce the room down to 3ft x 2ft

took a few minutes to dig a picture out

Nice! But as you can see, i posted my sophisticated dilemma. Shes already 6 week and 1 day i cant put her into flower for another 60 days till im ab l e to put her under the 400w hps. Im trying to make a positive statement with my first grow. And do a nice pruduction. Its just that im only managing $1000 monthly at this time. So withal though im just trying to be polished as a newbster. But i appreciate all of you guys knowledge and wisdom. I hope i didnt bore anyone. Im aiming to be one of the best. And i know its a long ride.....:peace:Thanks alot bros.
60 day :)

you could do a lot in that time, I would play it very different in that case

have you got a full view of the plant ?

Also will i be able to cloan her even though i cut her with those two shoots?
when you cut the top part of the plant off, you can turn it into clones, that's a great ideal
just cut it up into 4" lengths, with a node at the top and a 45% angle at the bottom, trim any fan leaves and your good to go
stick it in jiff's, soil ect
