First time poster and first time grower so bare with me.
I started with a simple flow hydro system and at first the stuff exploded with growth. I'm almost at two and half weeks but it seems like the plants have stopped growing in height and started putting on the weight. They are so bushy. I didn't think this would be a problem, or is it even? I topped 3 of the plants but, again, they are not growing in height. I figured maybe they are getting to much light so I pulled the lights a little higher but that doesn't make sense. I'm at 3/4nutes strength of Ioanic grow.
I want to trim the big leaves but that will slow growth even more?
My one concern is that I"m using small netpots (3") but I didn't think that would be an issue with hydroponics. If I look in the pipes I see lots of root growth.
Anyway I'm confused and obviously missing something.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
