Help!

Hey guys. When I started my grow, I spaced each plant about a foot apart. I knew I would get some males, so I figured by the time I removed the males, the girls would have more space. Problem is, I now have a set of females only spaced a foot apart. Their about 3 ft tall right now. Is this going to be a problem when they get bigger? Will they still bud correctly being so close together? Either way, it's too late now. haha. Thanks.

Train them away from each other and assume that you are now watering for two.

Thanks. But what about the roots? I've always heard that the roots will get tangled and stunt growth, however they seem to be doing just fine, as of right now.

Just wait... my "twins" are wannabe "christmas trees"...at over 6 feet tall, they are about 6 feet apart and -still- almost too close together.

I'm just concerned about the roots. Like sticky said, I can train them away from each other so they should still get enough sunlight. Is that what you're talking about? Not enough sun? Besides, I dont have enough room to put them that far apart. Last year I spaced them a couple of feet apart and they were fine. Only 4 ftrs but I got an ounce off of each one.

the roots will be fine in the earth.....if your planting in pots with two or more plants, thats when you should be concerd about root space. outside will be fine for roots, side shoots and 2ndary growth might be a concern. but like stinky said try and train them away from eachother. although i have seen a lot of plants crammed into a green house with great results, its still best to let them have their space....helps airflow through out the plant.

So I take it that the more space, the bigger the buds. Is that the case? Thank for the input. But like I said, last year mine were 2 ft apart and they produced an ounce each. I only had 4 females, but a free QP is better than paying for one. lol!

If you feed em good, and water them well then the roots shouldn't matter. The only problem i would fore see is them fighting for nuts, other then that should be fine. I did some last year outside with some other veggie plants, they were closely spaced, everything turned out fine. Just got to keep on top of things.
