You don't want to outgrow your space but when I get a cola that goes too high I just bend it down. Those plants look small, funny they didn't stretch more. When my blueberry plants stretch, it creates multiple new bud sites(Nodes).


First picture is first day of 12-12 and last one is harvest day.

hi there it only my second grow ive been worrying to much about vertical growth, there taller than my last ones lol. the buds were short and fat saying that i got 8 oz of 7 plants which is not bad for my first grow, next time im going to have the light high then lower it as they grow up and meet them 12inch from where i want them. is this right? another problem i have is my timer blew in the night as i was pissing about trying to sort it (instead of waiting for lights on to fuck about) the light came on for a few seconds 1 minute past lights out, ive set the timer to go back on 5 minutes after it should of, hope i havnt hermied them. nice plants fella, my strain is Dr Crippling icreadable bulk. and it warns you to watch out with them indoors as they can get out of control, vertically, any feed back would be appreciated :weed:

How long did you veg before flowering and is that coco or potting Mix?

roughly 4 weeks rooting +4 weeks veg there into 4th week of 12/12 buzz lightmix coco,
Make sure you water everyday, I used to water every 48 hours but as the plants drank more when they got bigger, the coco would dry up slightly in between waterings. It would give me salt build ups and pH issues. Water every day and don't top your plants more than 3 or 4 times indoors.(8 to 16 tops)
Adding more perlite to your coco might help also, looks like it could use more. I fill 1/3 of my pots with perlite then top off with coco. Mix everything up and transplant.
