Get the screen on top and try and spread her out gently. I use pots with tacks I can put in the side with different size rubber bands for tension. I'm in the middle of making mine.

I just thought of something I might try and do. Use a popsicle stick to wedge them apart instead of pulling them at the beginning so you can control the tension. Or use steaks in the soil. I like the rubber band idea because I think it strengthens them when they fight back and forth. Its just a little much at the beginning for them when there short and stocky.

image.jpeg image.jpeg She's taking off!!! Guys I'm so excited to flip. I can't believe how smoothly things are going. When should I flip ??? Is that consider 50% full? I can't even tuck the branches are thick and they feel like they're going to snap




Anyways this is fun

Definitely too early to flip. Raise your screen; it's there to spread the plant out, not hold it down.

Are you planning on topping again? That would slow it down but it really depends on your plan. If you just have a height restriction and no time restriction or anything else. I wouid top her again now and flip her in 7 to 10 days and be done with veg. If your not not planning on topping again, honestly I wouild flip her now too. Slow her down again or flip her is what I would do.

I don't have any time restrictions. She's 6 weeks old today.

I've topped about 3 times. I think I will let her finish this week then flip...

What's your reason to flip already? Just curious
