Opinions on Light

DonPerignonstarted grow question 5 years ago
My first regular female is a Roc bud Runtz City. Ive had no issues up until this week where its chased my LED light and is basically touching it. It still seems to be happy it just doesn't sit well with me that its grown up to the light the way it has. Can i have any opinions?

Check the manufactures specs on what your light height should be at for bloom, then just bend any branches above that height. (super cropping.) It looks like you have some room to do it and its easy to do. Just use your fingernail and pinch, squeeze and massage the branch untill it slowly starts to bend. Just be careful not to break it. There are excellent tutorials on how to do this on the web. Use some twine to tie it down if needed. If you allow it to continue it will burn and bleach your buds, affecting quality and yield

You just put it in flower.. That's why. Usually the plant doubles in height, after being put to flower.. Sometimes more, depending on the strain.

yes I am not familiar with that particular strain but unless it's 100% indica.. There is a chance that she has sativa leaning genetics. I have seen numerous different traits displayed in hybrids.. Ie. Indicas with sativa leaves.. Sativa plants with indica like leaves. etc... It's a bit of a genetic lottery with hybrids.

maybe your led is 2 weak. Plants will stretch like this 2 find more light. I run 2 1000w King leds in a 2x4 with 5 plants and I could prolly go more. My guess is that you get about 30% of the actual wattage of these cheaper leds
