a plant has grown too tall for the cabinet and is now growing at a 90 degree angle across the top of my cabinet. some pistils are starting to turn brown now at the top, will this affect end production. the plant is 4 weeks in now and has probably 5 to go. any feedback would be greatly appreciated :peace:

the box itself is at 58 inches but with the container i only have about 46. I switched the light at 18 inches thinking it would be fine but i guess not.:peace:

next time you grow BB, make sure to top it in veg. Tie down the top of the plant with a piece of string, as you would if you were doing LST. I had to do the same to my BB after six weeks. Nice CFL setup by the way, plant looks really good.

I have cabinet,and it 5 feet tall and my plants out grew it the last month of flowering.my shit was getting burned I coulndnt take it anymore so I moved all my shit to a closet which was a lot taller than my cabinet.I switched every thing when the light was supposed to be on it.it took about two hours switching lights,fans,carbon filter, exaust fans.cut two holes in the cielling of the closet,one for the heat from the light.And my exaust fan that sucked the smell out to the carbon filter that was in the attic.I love all the knew room I have. it didnt seem to stress the plants at all, and they got bigger.No more cabinets!I hope it helped you.

hi splifman, thank you for the comments, i tied it down and now will let it grow. the only reason i didnt top it during veg was it was a feminized seed and i was afraid of hermies, i wanted to put the least amount of stress on her as i could. Thanks again

Hi purplehaze, unfortunately i cant move my setup, it is what it is. I have tied her down a bit and ill let it go. Thank you for the input:peace:

hey i read that BB (blueberry)-or did you mean big bud? is a strain that won't reach it's max yield or potency unless it is topped. might wanna look into that next time too.
