I don't want to create an entire thread for it....but.....here's my current situation. I have a Durban Poison just passing week 4 since the light flip. I only had a veg time of 4 weeks from breaking ground. Anyways, she's growing faster and bigger then any plant I've ever grown before and she is becoming wayyyyyyy too tall. Any suggestions on how I can fix it? Do it bend it at an angle or let her be?View attachment 4452861

Cut the tops off....tie them down....spin them back and forth until they fall over...pinch them....raise the lights....lots of options.

I'm in a 6ft tall tent. Lights are at max. I think I am pinching til they bend.

Be careful pinching as they could just snap. If you lightly squeeze and spin them back and forth you can feel the interior cell structure breakdown bit by bit so you can decide how floppy you want those tops to be.

by doing this, will they just form a knuckle and stand up again?

Anything you don’t chop off completely is going to grow back towards the light. If you actually break enough of the internal cell structure using this method it takes way longer to recover than most others. Lots of times I’ll end up with a split in the stem as it heals.

if you’re in flower everything is going to take longer to recover than veg anyway.

In the next day or two, I'll be compiling a list of the participants and their strains. I'll also be including their lights too.

My Zombie has poked its head up and is trying to say hello to the world. I had to mist it a few times today. She came up with her helmet on. ( guess I didn't plant her deep enough ). If it's not gone in the next 24 hours, I'll be suiting up for an operation lol.

Here is my submission

Seed - Auto Critical Orange Punch by Dutch Passion
“Pot” - 18oz Solo Cup
Light - “1000W” Sunraise LED Blurple (actual draw 200W)
Medium - Mother Earth Groundswell Soil

 

[TheSadVeryBadMadGrower]

This morning the helmet was pushed off. At least I won't have to remove it myself. Picture later today.

Also, my other Zombie seed will be going into Miracle Grow soil this afternoon. I won't be documenting that grow. Just a curiosity killed the cat type deal.

This sounds very cool, I won’t join ( am rookie ) but I’ll be watching. I just threw two Caramel Cream seeds by sweet seeds into water.

hellow, see this is also the very first time Im doing a 0.5l grow when, in fact, I'm a PotAsLargeAsPossiblePlantsDontLikeRootbound-type of guy so I really donno what the outcome will be.
That's why I popped 3 beans so far (and select a single plant later) plus if any problems arise, people here in this forum seem to be quite helpful. Plus some of them got tremendous experience....
So I'm taking this for a learning practice, plus
