This week the plants got too tall for my liking. Realizing i would have a space issues with flowering i got some advice to throw a net out and limit their height so i am. I also realized my soil is real bad (the stuff i got from walmart) so i started lightly feeding foxfarm big bloom. (Im only trying it on 1 plant for now). I also released ladybugs and will realse more nematodes next weekend. I watered them quite a bit since they had not been watered in 13 days with tap tap water out the garden hose.
I have a question, and it seems dumb
But: Am i using the net correctly?
My girls are just poking through.
Im tring to keep them under the light.
Should i snap em to keep them under the net ?
(their stems are like celery sticks)
Or will they eventually get themselves stuck
The net is kind of pointless outdoors, since the sun is equally strong from top to bottom of the plant. Anyway, you are supposed to weave the stems, keeping the growth horizontal, so all bud sites are at the same height; I guess you could try some super cropping, but i'm not sure if the stems are pliabke enough at net level, you could break the stem
Great looking plants. I was using same greenhouse but they got too tall as well. I took mine off never thought to cut some vents. Good luck with flower!

Those are going to grow huge :)
I hope you didn’t put them to close to eachother! Nice setup you can always LS train them so they grow to the spots you want them to grow.
