Hey Bilbo, found your thread after a bit of lookin around. Nice update, liking the density in that closet of yours, and some lovely leaf assortments. I`ll be lurking in the shadows of the mountain brother ... bongsmilie

Monday update time again and its been a reasonably busy week in the closet, I potted up my nirvana northern lights into 12 inch pots, and in an attempt to keep height down, which is my strategy from now on if I am to achieve a split level grow closet with a small vegging compartment at the bottom with CFL's bringing the plants on, and a flowering compartment above that, thing is, I will have to keep my flowering plants around 3 foot high including the pot, heres a couple of diagrams I drew to reming myself what my plan is.Tying Tutorial Step 1.jpgTying Tutorial Step 2.jpgTying Tutorial Step 3.jpgWell that's the plan anyway, to keep height down by repotting at an angle, I'll see how it goes, heres a pic of the plant after the repotting, as you can see the plant has started upwards with a bit more vigour than hoped for, but I still reckon Ive shaved a foot or so off the overall height so far

Heres a pic of one of the plants Ive repotted at an angleNirvana Northern Lights 35 Days From Seed Tied 1.jpghmm maybe not entirely the desired result but a step in the right direction of keeping the plant lower.

Considered rimming the pot you`ll finish in? I had to train that way with a few stretchy Hazes I grew a while back. You have the same drooping over you have now, but you`re continuously training the new growth around the pot/container bonzai style almost. Keeps a 6ft plant about 3ft tall afterwards. Would`ve posted some reference shots for ya, but they were among those lost on RIU years ago during a `disturbance`. Would work well in your situation though given the photo you attached

Thank you CP, Ive smoked bud from these Trainwrecks mum, and its a good smoke. Northern Lights can be one of the best old school skunk related weeds, sometimes if grown well it will blow your head off, other times its a mellow medium effect, just will have to wait and see how Nirvana,s version of it turns out.
