Ok so here it is....
I planted and im about 2 months in however the place that i decided isnt going to work. Theyre in my closet now but i im almost positive its not going to be enough room plus my babies are growing like no other (up). I had the idea of digging a big pit outside like 8 ft deep and putting plywood overtop and making a little door that goes down in and cover the rest with dirt. However then lighting becomes a problem. I thought i could use a car battery to power like 2 bulbs while i had another one charging and id switch them. Well from what i found out thats not going to work. Im too much of a pussy to just plant them outside but i want to keep them REEEEEAAAALLL bad
i know im a noob member but doesnt anyone have any suggestions or ideas?

uumm honestly idk what to say i mean why can't you keep them in the closet, clear out a few shirts that are above it or all of them for that matter, and keep them there, start to flower early if you want or can and pick a new spot for next time

ok heres how my closet is set up
-------- _____<---attic entrance(attic is only 3.5 ft at highest point)
| |__|____/<---shelfs that run above the stairs leading to 2nd floor
| |__|___/<----plants
| |____/
| |<---doorway\
i can take the lid off to the attic and drop my light from there but im still afraid its not going to be tall enough. Is there anyway to control your plant height?

read up on LST growing methods.
Can you just move plant into attic?

the attic if not properly temped then could ruin the plants i think from what i read, you can have an adjustable light why adjust the plants?

Not trying to sound like a dick but just top your plants...
If you dont know how I am sure we can help you.
Topping plants will extremely slow to almost a stop the upward growth however your lady will continue to bush outwards.
Thats what I always shoot for a nice fat bush lol...
Hope that helps some moving in the middle of a grow is the pita..

or if you don't top then tie down to get a smaller height wise plant

It is possible to train the tip so that the stem will form a series of "S" shapes or even circles. During flowering, train the tips so that they grow horizontally. This method encourages thick, dense growth. The branch tips can also be trained. Keep bending any tips that grow above the others. This creates a garden filled with a cubic layer of vigorous flower clusters rather than a lot of stems.
We want to emphasise that when you get the knack of training the tips, you can more than double the yield of the most potent plant parts

my attic is only 3.5 ft high i can make my closet space maybe 4.5 ft up and both places i have room to expand outwards (esp. in the attic if i can control temp and smell) so i think im going to try to make them go out instead of up.
however i think i encouraged them to go up by addind stakes and i cant take them away now or the plants will flop over so what do i do
thanks for the help guys ....ill have to post some pics and let u guys tell me how they look and what to do thanks again Ill always said stoners are the nicest people youll ever meet
