How does my setup look first of all.... I have 3 SSH clones and 1 NYC Deisel from seed.... the Deisel is a lot smaller than the other plants and has not shown sex yet.... The SSH are all about 3 ft tall I want to start flowering becuase I do not want the plants to get too big. I used a 400 watt MH light and Fox Farms Veg nuts for 6 weeks.... Now I want to use my 400watt HPS and Fox Farms Big Bloom for 9-10 weeks should i start now... or should i let the little Diesel catch up to the other plants??? take a look at my setup feel free to critize ![]() ![]() | ||

![]() | hey purple... yourplants are really stretched out.. this is probably not the advice you want too hear .. but, I would cut down your tall pplants to matchthe height of your diesel.. just make a ![]() ![]() ![]() load of clones.. 3 feet is way way to tall for a 400 watt bulb.. when those plants start to flower they are going to double in size and fall over... sad but true : (the diesel looks like it need some fert!! something high in nitrogen.. really your best bet is to cut thos tall suckers down to about 12 inches.. (OUCH.. I know it is gonna hury) make a ![]() ![]() ![]() load of clones.. lower your 4oowatt bulb so that it is just a few inches from the canopy.. get a good fan to blow air between the tops of your plants and the light.... after you clone the ![]() ![]() ![]() out of yor plants..let the grow for 5-7 days and flower them..3 feet is ridiculous LOL goog luck BRO.. and keep us posted

uh i smack u arent you a bit inexperienced to be commenting as well?.....from my best estimation id say knowm is correct.....i dunno about chopping that seems a bit extreme....frankly that grow wont yield what it should. The plants are clearly stretched because the light is way too f u c k i n g high. Especially with that diesel plant being so much smaller......if he wants the diesel to grow properly he needs another light about 2 feet lower or forget it. Other than that hes got a cool setup.....i dont really like metal halides......next grow i think i might flouro/hps or just do another pure hps with 2 400 watters and like 12 or 10 plants.

![]() | yes, thanks for clarifying : ) yes drastic to cut 2 feet off the plant.. but as yes said, those plants have no chance for a good yield the way they are... chop 'em.. make clones.. and get that light a few inches from the canopy.. : ) good luck

Purple.. you can actually bend a plant 180 degrees.. it just takes a few days.. but your plants are way to tall for a 400watt bulb.. even if you do bend them..
