if you plan to veg more than you can top.Do some LST after. and dont you think you put the net too soon. maybe when you flip?

I am using net as LST method. I realized that i can't fill whole 5x5 area with 3 not topped plants after 4 weeks of veg lol. Then i put net and i am using to spread branches and bending top. Maybe you can't see in pictures but stem is kind of "L" shape like LST. I will upload better pictures then you can see. Normaly they are 13cm tall now but actually it's 17-18cm because i am bending them to side to side. But yes this is very wrong use of trellis lol. So you are absolutley right.

Anyway ordered 15 seeds. After finishing this run i will go with 6-7 plants at least and top them in very nice time etc.

I am still enjoying with autos. I don't have to keep tracking if they are flowering or not. They are in veg as much as i want to.

Every grow is anohter lesson. Not so bad for first time imo. Yeah i am looking to diaries and there is much more better growers for first time.

After finishing this run i will make legendary ones :P

Okay my shipment is on the way. I will add 4 more girls to this run and veg them 4 weeks then go to flower. At least i can fill space. I will bend others to manipulate height and try to get even canopy.

I just find a pheno you like and do a sea of green of clones why do 15 when you can cram 50 in there and flip em at 15 inches

If I flip mine at 12" on an SOG, my grow room is so dialed in they'd finish at 3 to 4 feet. That's way too cramped for proper air flow.

Well that depends on the genetics too, I'm going do a sea of green with some auyhsaca purple it's supposed to be a short stubby plant that gets no taller than 1 meter or 3.3 feet. But the plants finicky so I'm starting a couple new seeds.

I have a rule of thumb. If I can't see light shining through the canopy and hitting my flow table, It's too dense. I screwed up on the one I'm doing now. I let them get 12" before I moved them into flower. At 2 weeks I had to heavily prune them and lift the skirts. Then again I only do 1 per sqft.

Im about the same half gallon pot put them close together as I can and hold a steady wet dry cycle, feed water water water feed cycle, they don't get root bound either.

Problem is they are not exploding. They are in 20L pots and i will add 4 more plants to fill my space and start them flowering at week 4. Others will be in week 8. I topped them and waiting for seeds to arrive. Also i bend them so bad. I will not bend new seeds and try to keep height same and try to make even canopy.

I feel like my 1000w running for nothing on that 3 plants. My space can handle 4-5 more 20L pots without having hard times to water them but i will add 3.

I can't see any other solution to fill that space in less time. Never done cloning. I don't want to take anohter risk.

I think your over thinking it lol. I've taken clones with a serrated knife that just rinsed off with water dipped it right in dirt with out rooting powder. They rooted just fine. Nothing worse than having to hack plants down that are just to big for a small area. I know your just gonna do what you want tho so yea just make clones and fill the area. I think in two weeks your going to have more than you know what to do with and your not thinking into the future. But what do I know I only messed up 700 times
