Rubbermaid Grow - Running out of Room

[12345-54321]

Arhg! I have 4 kids in a good sized hopper, I'm about 3 weeks into flower and I'm running out of room fast. They are bagseed, looking
great, first grow, plants are 24" in 2 gal pots

What have other people done with this case?

LST?
larger grow box?
height extension to rubbermaid box? (perhaps lawn edging?)
replant into one grow in the tub?

Suggestions would be great as I have until the weekend until they are in too close to the lights...

Can you post up some pics?

sure, this is generally what they look like, I'm actually in the process of building a 4x2x4 cab, which i hope to move into shortly, so that will be good

the new cab you are constructing should do you plenty of room
if you can lst safely i would do that til you get you cab
how tall is your rubbermaid setup

[12345-54321]

the total height of the rubbermaid is around 36", and the plants are right around 24", but with the lights down and the slanty sides of the box, the round pots don't fit in very well.... the new cab is done, just painting it now, and trying to figure out the best ventaliation for the new cab.

Would it be possible to just take the main cola and bend the whole thing down so that the plant looks like an upside down "J"? And tie it down with a rope? Then would the top grow DOWN rather than UP? This was just a theory that I've had, even though I've never grown before!

yea you can do that but you don't want to go to far to fast. I don't know too much about lst thats what its called. there is some good pages on lst that I have seen floating around here. try to search lst to see how far you can go without harming the plant....

-UPDATE-
I grew concerned that any which way, I'd be running out of in the rubbermaid box soon, so I whipped up a 4hx4lx2w cabinet with wheels.

The girls are much happier in there, and now I shouldn't have as much trouble with shrinking area. The rubbermaid is a great starter, and with LST would have worked great, but I don't have the correct timeframe to LST at the moment.

I've also now got room for the clones that are about ready to move in as well, just in time.....

I mean really just how STEALTHY is a rubbermaid anyhow? :bong:

[texas grass]

much better
good job:thumbsup:
