She's probably root bound at that size. If you want to veg for a couple of months I would go for a bigger tote/reservoir. Why just one plant may I ask?
If you had planted 4 plants/clones you would already be done harvesting. While I like to grow trees indoor there's always a cost to positive return, vegging for to long will give you less yield and quality will suffer indoors.
Outdoors you can run 250 gallon containers, then that plant size make sense. Cheers!

He's in dwc. I wasn't aware they can get root bound in dwc. I believe he has enough light on it to get a good return. Especially in hydro, but there is reasons growers don't grow big indoors. Actually it's usually the other way around.
This was really something that just got out of control because of circumstance

this is how big I got mine before lst and scrog.
And it was still too much. Lol
I think the reason people don’t grow this big indoors has a lot to do with space

Understandable. I'm out of town for a few days a week, so I don't always have time to get shit done. You just gotta do your best.

And time. Longer veg times, means longer to harvest.

There's other reasons but those are main ones.
Yeah but the good thing about it i had all i needed to have at the time the only inconvenience is electric bills but what’s a couple hundred bucks to get some killer smoke you know
I don’t claim to be a genius when it comes to hydro at all , but when you grow soil your older mature plants always put off the best yield and the best smoke

I'm not arguing your point. It's your grow. Do it however you see fit. Don't let anyone tell you different. I believe she looks good.

Agreed
I’ll keep you posted when she starts budding up big i think she will look amazing !

Sure he's going to yield some bud. But saying you yield more with longer veg time is a false statement.
SOG is the best if your looking for yield over a certain time period. Vegging for like two weeks then flip. Downside is plant count and work involved.
Saying you yield more by vegging for months at end is just plain wrong. We've already established what yields most indoors, vegging for months is not the answer.
Quality should not differ if you have everything dialed in and know how to grow properly IMO.

I kinda touched on that point when I said there reasons most don't go big indoors. I'm in no way saying that growing big is the best way or the right way. Imo, any way that gets you a good harvest, is the best way
Where is just as important as how your growing.When you have a big enough place to grow then it changes everything i’ve been growing for 28 years and 20 indoors and i know from experience.When you grow little 1 and 2 once plants it nothing like growing 20 plants and getting 20 pounds just letting your plants go another month! This is a new experience for me growing hydro, but far as knowing how to grow in certain space i’ve done it all. Also when you got the room you let them grow bigger and lollipop them and put your netting about 4 1/2 and let the spread out and they produce way more!!!
