Flowering

It depends on your height restriction... Plants stretch in flower, and can double in size. Sometimes triple in size. I always account for at least double in size when vegging a new strain!

What ives learned recently..

If you have height restrictions; veg for a very short time after super-cropping and topping, I'm really liking the FIM technique to top..(which I just learned)
FIM= Fuck I Missed.

This is done by: instead of actually snipping tops with shears or scissors, you use your thumb and index finger to ” feel” for a” knot” of new growth at a top location.

Feel for the knot, and remove 75-80% of the knot, this creates the same effect as topping, but a portion of the existing growth remains.

I would advise a week or less in veg.

I'm going to do the same for my next run..
My space is a grow tent..
5x5x6

Height restrictions caused a HUGE headache, fighting gigantic colas from getting too close to my light source.

My next run, I'm gonna run more plants, but veg a lot shorter, to take full advantage of the 1000 w I'm using.

Depends how much space you have to work with and what strain type.
I don't have a lot of space. So, I flower early and grow short.:peace:

I used to grow in this:



So I'm a bit of a height restricted expert unfortunately, so far you've pretty much got all the info you need, take individual stretch into consideration,
TOP/FIM/supercrop as needed to keep an even canopy. I had a shit ton of air movement and circulation and got plants REALLY close before they started burning:






I got light bleaching first in fact.... anywho my very first run I vegged way over height and ended up cork screwing my plant around supports in it to greatly reduce its
height. The only other thing not really covered in here is bushmaster, I hate to give a nod to products like that, but It really did seem to keep stretch down a bit on my G6's
the first run...
