I like it, big plant... Bubblers can cause impressive growth.

I would say they are a bit stretched, how far away is your light from the plant canopy?

for the 600 I would keep it about 1.5-2 feet away.

yeild, too many factors, but to be honest not to much bud production yet for 4 weeks into flowering, you may have to go alot longer than 8 or 9 weeks.

might take you to 12 weeks.

good luck

What strain is it? or what veg light did you use. Stretching is caused by lack of blue light or MH light of any light in the 5000+ kelvin range of light. the nodes look really spread out.

I think it was a combination of using the HPS for veggin and your strain.

either way shes a pretty n tall lady...

Should get you alot of yeild.

for a bigger yeild you could slowly tie her down to one side, little by little each day.

It would help to even out your canopy.

Or you could leave her and remove the very lowest branches.

cheers pal as for removing the bottom branches the at 10mm thick and come half way up the plant with lots of bud on them so unsure off cutting them off think ill try tie them down

how would you advise to do that cheers

True but even a 600 watt light only has 1.5-2.5 feet of true light penetration at it most intensity.

meaning that past that point on the plant going down, the bud site will yeild very little because they are getting very little sun.
