Plant too tall : Reduce light time exposure ?
PurpleWorshipstarted grow question 4 years ago
Hey ! My Blackbery Auto (@fastbuds), week 7, took 30cm in one week. She will be too tall soon, for my indoor grow tent. Should I :
- Reduce light time exposure. (19h -> 12h) ?
- Give up, see this like a positive thing, and just put her outside to do what she want :D ?

Zoomed in on those pics -- seem okay on spacing.. may have to supercrop this time. Do you have experience with this strain of auto? that'd help guesstimate how much growth is left. The budlets are showing, so i'd guess 7-10 days left of growth? better to do that now than later in bloom... so, err on the side of safety.

Oooof guys you are scaring me :S That's my first grow ever... Supercrop (pinching !?) is realllly stressfull for me, i really don't want to ruin it 😖
I can't get lights closer, i'm already at the minimal light to plant distance, 30cm. (recommended by the light manufacturer, for the flowering period).
I may be abble to win some height by fixing the light differently... But if she grow 30cm more, I'll be fucked !!

Reducing light will only make it stretch more
If internodal spacing is long, get lights closer.

Reducing the light schedule will increase stretching.
You could supercrop her to a more manageable height - around 3/4 the way up from the bottom, where her trunk starts to get thinner.

Any way to save my clones, and have healthy clones from these? I took these about 7 weeks ago and life got ahead of me. The plants these are from are greatI took these clones 7 weeks ago and never got around to transplanting them. As you can see, they are rootbound, stretched, and stunted. My question now is, is there any way I can make these clones usable? If not, it's a lesson for next time, but I want to use these clones.

Late topping to take direct clone from topping after 8 or 9 nodes?Late topping to get a decent clone (two nodes) with first topping?
What do you guys think, is there a too late for topping? Normaly i top only the tip and take clones later from branches.
My girl nr.4 is three weeks behind she could catch up, cutting the clone from branches?Plant. Too tall
