I realize that. I explained how that came to be and I really do not have a solution except to 86 a few of those plants. I can't get myself to do that and I dodn't want too expand to another grow area. If I did I might let them veg until I could get them outdoors. Eventually I will have to deal with removing some of those plants, but there aren't any that deserve to die.

As far as cutting the bottom branches, I usually end up cutting the bottom branches eventually as they become totally shaded and produce little. I've cut as much as six of the branches off the bottoms with no loss of buddage.

I really appreciate you continued input, JG. This is not my first "load of pumpkins", I've been growing outdoors off and on for forty years, annually for the past eight or so. The indoor grows are failry new to me. I've learned just about everything I know in the past two years. Much of that knowledge from folks like you. Thanks.

So, what to do with the extra plants? Last Spring I threw some females out...hated to do that.

Shovelhandle Reviewed by Shovelhandle on . Fourth of July Crop I like to plan crops' harvests and proving around traditional party times. So, I plan to get going on a new grow in time for USA ndependance Day, Canada Day Holidays and will log all the good stuff, including pics here. The first steps will be to... (1) clean the grow area (2) decide on seeds ( I'll have to get busy and finish smoking and proving last grow's products) (3) Germinate some seeds. Sorry I've not been on line. I've busy with personal and family medical crisis, some Rating: 5
