Too close to 1000W HPS?
    #624568 - 05/25/12 10:59 PM (11 years, 10 months ago)

So there's 5 ladies in a tent in week 3 of flowering. 80% of the canopy is at a nice distance from the glass of my air cooled hood (i can flatten my hand out on it and hold there all diggity day long.) at about  30" from canopy to glass. 15% of the canopy is a bit taller, only about 24" distance. Today I looked in and a few shoots (5% of the canopy) have raced up and are about 18" from the glass. Temps range from about 70 at lower level to 84 in the top of the tent above the light. should I maybe tie these things down a bit to keep em from reaching too high? they haven't started REALLY flowering super crazily yet, but there are clusters of white pistils on all the nodes on the upper halves of the plants. sorry no pictures right now.

You might as well start training them now cause if they are only in week 3 of flowering your gonna need to tie them anyway more then likely a few times.

Should the method be any different? Or just tie down sideways?
