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 !💪

How to make stronger smell and flavour in DWC grows?
Hi guys. Just harvested my second ever harvest, and 2nd time with DWC. Using HPS, then CMH for last 2 weeks I'm really happy with buds, but the smell is a little less intense that I would like. I have used Cannaboost, which is supposed to increase flavour but I want more! :)

IR cameras and ligth
Are IR cameras dangerous for the night cycle? I have my plants on streaming and I'm thinking of placing an infrared camera and IR LED I'm worried that the IR light can stress the plants and interrupt the night cycle. Wave you experience this with security cameras?

24/7 lighting autos
24/7 lighting on autos?? Thinking of giving it a shot, any reason not to? Would be easier on some of my equipment keeping that stable environment. Not worried about electric usage. How important is a dark cycle?

Is this light good enough?
Will this be enough for 2 auto flower plants in a grow tent? Or will it work for one? The tent is 20x35x64. Or should I get another one or a different light altogether? Thanks!!

12.0v LED strip effectiveness
Will this mini led strip help my other weak light out? Or is it wasted energy. I’m still putting the plant in the sun as soon as it gets onto my balcony but while it’s really cloudy and in the evening this is all I’ve got.

Helloo growmies! I've got a question.. I need a new light for vegging (only) in a 80x80cm tent. I am thinking of eather the LIGHTWAVE T5HO 60 CM (48W) or MarsHydro TS 600 (100W) Has some one experience with those lights? Is it worth spending double on electricity with the MH?
