ur plants look very stretched, i would replant them with the nexts in the dirty leaving the plant just above the soil, the lower the lights alot. im not sure what kind of lights you have but at this stage fluro's work good, HID might kill ur plants at this stage esspecially with that much stretch. As far as venting it ur attic should be fine for a small grow like that, if the pot isnt that smelly u might not even have to scrub it

As per your "scrog" question, yes, it's as simple as setting up chicken wire. To perfect such a setup can require a bit more work and knowledge-pruning, shifting, etc.

get a little fan in their to get some air moving around. You can vent through the attic, that's fine. Alternatively, with flouro's, you could probably get away with venting through small holes in the closet door if that's easier. Either way, as long as you've got some semblance of circulation you're fine with a few flouro's.

Good luck, Emily.

Chicken wire works, ive seen some people just staple string to the wall and make a grid out of it, whatever works for you. When you transplant them make sure u plant them so that long stretched out stalk is mostly in the ground, leave about 1/4ich of stem and the leaves sticking out of the ground, make sure to be gentle with the stem when you trnasplant it to, dont cram it down, just put the root ball near the bottom of the pot and hold the stem gently while you slowly pour in the soil making sure that the stem doesnt snap, then you should be fine with just keeping the lights low, a few inches max for fluros

yu kno ive never thought of that!! i even had a decent size veggie garden this year n wondered why i was always covering the roots back up its because ive never thought to stick them further n the ground.. thank yu so much thats a great tip n ive never heard it till now that goes for planting almost anything. i will try that mos def.. this is just some bagseed when i sex em up n get the ladies seperated ill be transplanting, i think it wood be a good idea to do that to the long lady too shes has plenty space..

now about this "Scrog" its basically makes it bushy like and in order to get that yu can cut or tie the leaves n let them re grow?? is it likely i could kill the plant if i cut all the leaves off at once??

That's something I wouldn't even want to try, lol.
