Yes it’s a closet grow…..it’s a bit of a pain to get at the plants without removing them, which is what I do. It’s a 2x6 so I hafta train the plants to maximize that space.
I typically grow 3 plants and harvest between 14-18oz of dried & tightly manicured buds.
I run 2 lights that are rectangular in shape and ideal for a 2x6. Both are HLG’s…..a 320w rspec and a 150w Patriot.
Compared to my friend’s lights, which are not HLG, it’s a runaway for HLG. The densest flowers I’ve ever seen…..

Def a good start. I sometimes wish I had a few less tops. I’m constantly tucking and bending, trying to get the most light to the bud sites.
And I’m never aggressive enough lollipopping.
I think i am when I first do it, then they stretch and the sites start stacking and I end up with a small portion of the plant that’s buried too deep below the canopy.
The last thing I’ll say is be careful to not remove too many leaves. I was taught to leave some of the lower fan leaves while pinching the bud sites off. Those leaves will serve as a reserve and aren’t hurting anything.
Growers that strip every leaf right before or during flowering, have zero margin for error. It’s ok to lose some fan leaves along the way, but if those fan leaves have been removed, the problems will show up on your flowers….which u don’t want.
Good luck.

i agree with this man, like 2grows ago i was growing in soil and i was the victim of nutrient lockout in flower, i was lucky that i had alot of fan leaves because instead of the the plant getting nutrients from the buds it got them from the fan leaves and my buds stayed nice and green <3 :3

I think you've done the right think so far, focus on scrogging next run.

Just flip em , then carry on as you have .

Make sure your watering to run off and removing it and don't let them dry out.
