    Help me keep my sanity

    The plants will grow as large as you let them...remember once you flip to 12/12 they will stretch a little before they slow down growth and start to bud. I tend to let them grow to about 1/2 of total size then flip, they will stretch anther 25% and over the course of flower grow another 10% I...

    Grow tent advice needed

    im not 100% on this but I don't think 4 plants in a 5x5 is a SoG style grow...more like a ScROG or LST type thing where you trained them to bush out. SOG is more like 9 smaller plants...but I could be wrong on that. not trying to pick ya apart :) a 600w will be fine for a 4x4 tent. I have...
