Its called fim,

I would flip now and keep tying down and consider yourself really lucky if its not all touching the roof in a week.

Those LED bulbs work better with the globe cut off and facing down.

Thanks

I will train it well :)
This is an experience after all, its not my main grow.

I just transplant it 2 days ago, now took out the tops, so I need to wait a bit, no?

True about the leds but since its only 45 height, I had no choice...

I agree, but guess it would be much work, if i was you, i would remove the globes, drill holes of the top of the box, and keep the light bulb outside the box, also maybe adding 4 more lights, this wa you get more headspace, more light, less heat.

There are things that standing on this cupboard, I can't use the top, it is what it is..
I have also a tent with 3 large plants and 4 plants (not sure if all are females) that I switch to flower in some temporary not ideal space, better than to throw them..

So this micro place is new and will be for cuttings in the future.
Accidentally I veg 8 plants, long story, I started with one, had issues, started again, had issues, started again had issues and then got crazy and switch soil and started 9 to test the cause of the issues, and the bottom line I got 8 plants from 4 strains :)

So I am aware to all the disadvantages of this small place, I will have to work with it as is...

Thanks :)

update


I am keep on training, but this Aurora is not so flexible.. and probably I waited too much.
2 of them will have to wait until they are longer so I can tie them.

Also i did 2 of them a bit strong, add a photo, I hope its not to much damage....

Switching now to 12:12

Maybe do you know, from time to time I have a huge drop of water? or kind of liquid on the leafs, without any reason... for sure its not from my watering.

update:

Plant is 32 days since flip to 12:12.
Current nutrients are:

Nova soil mix
Cal mag
Big bud

Its getting hard to train, and I still have 40 days+-
There is almost no grow only the buds are getting bigger.

Some of the leaves are burned, nothing I can do about it. If the closet was only 10 cm more.. but this is what I have for it. Sometimes even some of the buds are getting hit burn, its hard to make all of them safe.. the plant is almost impossible to get out and in from the closet without breaking the training.

Well, photos:

update + question

The is a lot of heat burn, even that the temperature is 28 cel +- (air condition in the room)

Should I change the light from 15w to 10w in this stage? ( I have the lights its not something I need to buy)
She is entering 7 week (usually aurora is 9-11 weeks flowering) and look with a lot of brown hairs already...

So I have 2-3 more weeks, any advice on nutes and the light issue?

I am stopping with the big bug, only cal mag and nova soil mix (every second watering from now)

Thanks

She is good, the switch back to 10W bulb was very good, less heat and less bulbs touching the leaves.

Its not like a tent, but consider the experiment, she is doing great and I think I will get 40 gram minimum from her.
Approaching 8 week, still got some time, Aurora flower time is 9-11 weeks... still no amber in the trichomes.

91 days total.

update , end of week 9

Not sure what is going on.. the heat is hard for her..
The buds are very dry, almost no smell, no sticky resin.. the buds are dry to touch.
Flower in this small space wan't a good idea but the only other option was throw it to the garbage.

There are more and more amber trichomes on few of the buds as I am checking.
Most of the others are milky.

Time to harvest I think.
