She is very Tall for 6 weeks but i dont have a solution for you. its to late for LSt or Bending down..... Youneed more Distance between pnat and Light. You have several Options. 1. Diggin a hole ( JOKE) 2. Hanging the Lights higher. Open your old tent and do some DIY Curtain to keep the Light inside. 3. Get another (bigger) Tent.. Thats the only possabilitys i see. For your next grow try LST That keeps the Plant small and give you a good Yoeld too. Sorry got no better News for you

Varkhondstarted grow question 7y ago
Should I defoil the plants longstemmed leafs now? I feel like the light will be distributed way better and that the humidity will go under 60% then.. :P Just the lower wide leafage and some of the longer stems with pretty cripsy dry leafs especially?

Your buds are looking really good so i would go with yes, defoliate. Remove anytging thats being a drain on the rest of the plant, large fan leaves, lower tiny popcorn buds, and any damaged leaves like you mentioned. Not only will your big colas flourish, but yes the lower amount of foliage should bring your humidity down. However i do see you're growing an auto and those typically have a little more resilience where mildew, mold and humidity in general are concerned...they just seem to handle abuses a little better in my opinion. Happy Harvesting and great job with the grow...enjoy the trimming. 😊✌️

Varkhond
Varkhond commented7y ago
@JerMeds, Thank you, and very strong smoke. :) :P I am using this light https://www.viparspectra.com/goods.php?id=61 :) Im often dreaming about some of the new models out there that advertice mad g/w but I think this one is doing well for the price and watt cost. :) *(viparspectra 300w, real use about 136w) .

@Varkhond, Awesome I'm looking for a strong Critical bud, that's why I got these seeds. Cant wait to start growing them. Well that LED light and your growing skills work great together. I will be following your next grows for sure.

Varkhond commented7y ago
@JerMeds,Ty, i am almost at week two with my 3 new plants in 8 liter, i will try to make a diary of those in here if my camera start working again xD 2 acop 1 bcn critical, bit leca in the medium this time around else equal cocomix. 1 acop was not sprouted 10 days ago when i put all 3 in the pots, she just came up today so indeed 3 critical plants this run <3 EDIT: I live in a drafty loft, i am pretty much 100% sure my fresh air supply is doing me much good. :P No old farts or smoke being sucked into the tent for sure..

Thanks for including a screenshot of the exact lighting system you used along with the price. Very helpful. This will probably be my next upgrade thanks to you. 👍
Varkhond
Varkhond commented7y ago
@Kaya666, Very welcome. :D I always wonder what light are we talking when i read the awesome diaries on here.. Is that an 50 dollar 200w led or an 1150 dollar 200watt of last generation? :P There is differences..
