looking great man, they sure are growing nicely now!
What is the size of the greenhouse again?

What are the measure of these boxes? How many gallons?
To calculate gallons, take the measurements (in inches), multiply all three, then divide by 231, which is the number of cubic inches in a gallon.
So, 48"x48"x24"=55,296
55,296/231=239.37 gallons per 4x4 bed.
They're already on their way! You're gonna have a great season. :D
Will become? Those are beasts already!!I'm hoping that some of the plants will become monsters but more importantly, that they remain healthy. Thank you for explaining how to calculate this. :)
I wouldn't cut them back, I would supercrop, bend or tie them down somehow. They should be gearing up to set blooms by now, you don't want to lose that steam they've got rollin'.Thank you , it's my hope that this will be a very good season for us. Was in the greenhouse this morning and figured I'd measure a couple of the plants and was amazed to find that one of the Train Wreck's now stands at 8'5" ( I will need to cut it back some as it's already touching the greenhouse cover ) and one of the 818 Headband's is a very respectable 7' 9" . Got man y others in the 6' range. :)

Wee!!

I second SM, don't cut them just bend them over and tie them down. If you want you can even break them and tie them up at a 90* angle. They will heal at the "elbow", turn and keep growing. Nice set up BTW.
In my experience, getting this kind of vegetative growth early on means at least a 4 pounder. :)No cutting, only bending and tying down. :) Not that it will make any big difference in the universe, but, I am beginning to wonder what the yield on some of these plants is going to be, I think I may be good for a good 2 pounds on the Headband, could be more and I'm thinking that the TrainWreck will do pretty good as well. :)
