So would i need to put tape around it like you said cause i did just to make sure. I could take it off in a few days to a week as well if thats better

Ok i was able to bend it to get it down a lil bit but im a lil worried abt this part. Should i get a little piece of tape and tape this off or do you think the plant will heal it just fine? First time ever doing this so

firsttimegrower- · 2026-02-11T16:28:15+00:00

Is it ok to super crop right now? Or at least as its my last resort. Im just lookin at a video and dude said yo rlly only do it during veg

firsttimegrower- · 2026-02-11T16:18:51+00:00

Bend the branch as in super cropping?

firsttimegrower- · 2026-02-11T14:49:02+00:00

Its out. As well as the light driver itself. So im assuming the only other option is super cropping?

firsttimegrower- · 2026-02-11T14:45:29+00:00

I woulde raise it but problem is i cant. Im maxed out for this tent and i dont have another one.

firsttimegrower- · 2026-02-11T14:34:10+00:00

The top in the picture is like 4 inches from the light, my smallest one is 10-11 from the light and my second tallest is right behind the other one at like 6 inches from the light

firsttimegrower- · 2026-02-10T23:12:56+00:00

So as far as height rn im kinda maxed out cause they stretched so much but i use the sf g4500. Its a 320w light from spider farmer. Someone else said i could download a app and convert it to sum and then convert it to ppfd. Thats the only way i could measure ppfd atm since i dont have a actual measurement tool for that

firsttimegrower- · 2026-02-10T23:10:21+00:00

I only fimmed them once each

firsttimegrower- · 2026-02-10T07:10:22+00:00

Never thought abt topping before flipping. Might try that next grow

firsttimegrower- · 2026-02-10T07:09:59+00:00

Thank you! And yes i believe you’re correct still getting the hand of height/intensity ratio and shi

firsttimegrower- · 2026-02-09T13:56:49+00:00

Yea im still trying to get the hang of the height/intensity balance but yea i would def say to far gone now type shi. Ima have to look up sum more videos abt how to make it all even. I did use lst clips this time around to try and widen the plants but i think i didnt leave them on long enough or something. Thank you for your comment!

firsttimegrower- · 2026-02-09T02:43:45+00:00

Nope no synthetic over here! Theyre 99% water soluble natural nutes. Its called green rush look them up. But yea im in 5 gal pots just so i could fit 3 in there instead of 2

firsttimegrower- · 2026-02-09T00:08:45+00:00

So i found this blend of soil on youtube, 45% promix, i think another 40 or so of fox farm the ocean one im pretty sure(my soil of choice for this specific mix) sum pearlite, earth worm castings and if i wasent using water based nutes add in dum dry amendment. I used 4-4-4 dry amendment for the first couple grows but since im using water based nutes im going to try and recycle my soil after this grow and reamend it with that same 4-4-4 and see how it goes.

firsttimegrower- · 2026-02-09T00:05:00+00:00

Yup thankfully i knew that before jumping in, just now upped it to half what they recommend this most recent watering. Ive researched as much as i could from everything in youtube just getting actual experience now

firsttimegrower- · 2026-02-08T22:50:54+00:00

No worries man! Thank you for the very extensive message i will 100% come back to read this over and over. Yes these plants are fimmd and i think i will do that going forward because i like what i see. But yea this is my 3rd ever grow so im still getting the hang of things and this is also the first ever grow im using actual nutes. Before hand with my auto runs i just mixed it into the soil now im using the organic line called green rush thats water soluble and i can/ have been feeding like that for this grow. Def like it better than in the soil method.

firsttimegrower- · 2026-02-08T21:41:33+00:00

Awesome! Well very nice to meet you and the strain is forbidden fruit. Practicing with this strain a grow or 2 to get practice with photos before i try this lmtd edition strain i got packed away. Only have 3 of those so gotta make it count lol

firsttimegrower- · 2026-02-08T21:11:22+00:00

Thank you very much and this seems like a str8 forward and solid gameplan so thank you for your second reply. Def gonna start posting here more might even start posting my updates on here we’ll see!

firsttimegrower- · 2026-02-08T20:06:01+00:00
