So do alot of plants grow this tight together I can't hardly trim or train??
So this is normal? Lol I've never grown small tight ones like this have another thread if you can help me out buddy thanks!!!I always have the same problem(?). I see plants with three nodes that are like a foot tall and mine are always like half that height with three nodes. I have a 300 watt light and i have even started it on full power at 5 feet above and STILL can't get a tall plant.
What I do is use garden staples and staple the branches down and it helps open the plant up. Keep moving them outwards as they get taller.
I actually PREFER a short plant because I'm a dedicated scrogger.
Would it be bad to keep it normal then half way through veg block the red out to grow les compact and tallerDo you have the red channel on? If so, turn it off.
Blue = taller plants.
Red - shorter bushier plants.
Spectrum effects morphology significantly.
So get the red out as much as possible and probably bring the overall up a little to make up for the PPFD lost in red.
Was looking at thisYes but it's only like a couple diodes that are red almost to nothing and I can't turn those off it one setting for veg and flower unless I cover them with tape?
No switches they stay on buddy is that a bad thing will I lose yield? Is there anything I should change grow wise for this lightWas looking at this

Thought A and B were on switches? I guess they are just on all the time?
I'll send a picture of it in about an hour buddy if you wanna check back thanks alot!!!Sometimes Red and Far Red are good. If you are trying to boost vertical growth over sideways bushiness, red is bad.
If there are only a couple of red LEDs there, I find this spectrum chart impossible. I'm not going to be much help here with Mars.
Sure no problem.I'll send a picture of it in about an hour buddy if you wanna check back thanks alot!!!
Ok that plant is topped like 3 or 4 time alreadySure no problem.
There may be some other things you could do besides spectrum, let me think about that a minute. Usually the problem is the plant is too tall for the tent, not too short.
Ya it's a hard bushy ball lolOk that plant is topped like 3 or 4 time already
Ok bc I have 2 plants like that and the other 2I have the same light. It's because you're topping. If you top it will take time to get taller. You're making it wider right now. Usually I just FIM but only if needed. Part genetics .. part training.
Not worried about u even just never Had one girl so small and tight when toppingIf you're worried about un-even canopy grab some MINI milk crates they sell them like 1$-$2 at walmart.
Plus I am very new at this so just trying to see and learn how things areIf you're worried about un-even canopy grab some MINI milk crates they sell them like 1$-$2 at walmart.
I have another thread posted if you will check it out for me buddyIf you're worried about un-even canopy grab some MINI milk crates they sell them like 1$-$2 at walmart.
