i got a few questions guy so you know im currently growing but i was really thinking for this next round with my 2x4x7 i could take the canvas off my tent and just use the frame to support my lights and fans would i be able to grow more plants this way as im sure my room wouldnt get as hot as my tent does or am i wrong?
The only thing you'll lose is a small percentage of light reflecting to the backs of the plants, so expect them to grow more towards the light than before, and expect some branches to never grow big enough to properly reach the light.
Just trim those off early so they don't waste the plant's energy. Or use them as clones. Or leave them on and use them as the start of re-vegging after harvesting the mature branches.
But an open room is way easier to keep cool when running a 600.
Just be sure to wear your sunglasses when around it in the basement.

Just basic topping , did them once before the switch and quite substantial lolly popping and had 9 fairly small girls in there I brought my screen only cost pennies .

hey bob i was thinking of running a 1k above the plants and a 600 vertical right underneath the light or would that just be wasting space? maybe start them under the 1k and once i flower turn the 600 on for lower bud sites ?

Alright guys have a question for those who don't know the breakdown I.have 5 bc.going right now there at almost 7 weeks.veg if I'm looking.for yield would.it.make sense to.clone them and.have maybe 12 plants altogether or just grow these 5 out more.

post a pic of the size they are Bman, it all depends really, 7 week veg seems good to get a nice harvest (depending on their size). 12 small clones vegged for 3 weeks would yield about the same as 5 plants vegged from seed for 7 weeks. imo

that videos trippy jimmer lol

Speaking of sunglasses in the grow room, i can't remember if i asked this, but has anyone got a pair or ever used a pair of method 7 grow room glasses? I'm thinking about putting a pair on my xmas list. They're kinda expensive so I don't know if the cheap ones compare or if the expensive price tag is worth it?

I would take clones, then flower while they are rooting. It might take a bit, and you wouldn't want your other plants to get out of control while waiting for them to recover and start growing again. you can always throw them in once they root wherever they fit. IMO

Maybe throw the clones in the closet with 1 small cfl bulb or even in a window. My point was it might take 2-3 weeks before the clones are ready and your plants at 7 weeks will be almost another month old and bigger. Then they will stretch even more and possibly take up what space you want to put the clones inn. I understand the limitations and you can only work with what you have. I have a friend who uses a cardboard box next to his tent for this exact reason. With the cfl, you really don't have any heat to worry about.

My self, I'd take clones then put into flower in a week after the plant recovers. Then use the cfl in a closet or somewhere till they root and start to grow again. Then I would stuff them where they can fit into the flower area. When you harvest the first 5 plants, it will give the clones more light to fatten up. If done right you can get 2 harvest in 3 months with limited space.
