I can think of LST, topping and suppercropping. In that stage suppercropping is probably the most healthy thing for the plant, but probably the technique you are familiar with will do it. It will stress the plant but push the other one a lot

raise the lamps if you don't want to burn your flowers... If you can't rise anymore, try to bend over the branches. Good Luck !💪

And if it's not difficult, tell me how I should control the light at all stages of growth from growth to the end of flowering!? at what distance from the plants should the light be? and what power adjustments on the driver should I make?

Can a 1000w LED grow light be closer than 60cm (24") to a seedling?
Different sources are saying: 1000w LED light should not be closer to a seedling than 60-75cm (24"-30"). The seedling should be getting 5000-7000 lux, 100-300 PAR (PPFD 18h) and 12-20 DLI. Question: Can I put the light closer at ~40cm, dimmed to match the needed lux, par and dli

Can I change my autoflowers light cycle withou reducing their yield significantly?
I am having humidity/mold problems and was thinking of changing the cycle so the grow goes off at noon ( currently it goes off at 1am and its winter and gets real cold with 88% humidity). Even if I stress them, it would be better to not have mold than reducing the yield, right?

When to turn the light on after sprouting?
We have a sprout! Tropicana Banana sprouted between 10pm last night and noon today. Can I turn the light on now, and start the 18-6 schedule tonight or will it fuck it up if I turn the light back off at midnight tonight to begin the 18-6 schedule?
