how are the plants doing, lst questions

[Caligreen]

so, first off, the plants feel a little dry, some of the leaves are brittle to the touch. The temperatures are now kept below 78. The crispiness might be the result of a heavy does of neam and safer soap a few days back when there was an infestation.

the leaves also appear a bit curled on some of the plants

lsting ?s

do i have to make sure the top doesn't ever resume its upward growth or can I let it grow upward once the plant is as bushy as I want it?

is it important to keep the tops pointed downward, or do they just have to be lower than some other part of the plant?

should i use a screen?

no particulars, just bend and bend and bend some more; i recomend keeping the real top down until they begin the flower stretch, then just let them do what they'll do... looking good though:thumbsup:

as for the burnt/crispi leaves, the safer's will do that, if it's mixed full strength. try misting with water and water the soil realy well one time, they should pick up... but don't be surprised if some of those leaves die, that's what happened to me, but the babies came through with relatively low probs.

hope this helps, and if you get a chance, check out my cannabis college sticky in basic growing... lots of cool techniques for topping, fim ing, lst, supercropping, etc.
