LST and Flowering.. help!
Ok so Im fairly familiar with LST and what nots, however...
I had purchased a new cabinet with 6 ft of head room. I figured this would be enough with my indica dominate strains to have more than enough room to flourish straight up, without it.
I was wrong.
Im 3 weeks into flowering and one plant has literally outgrown the light. Luckily she wasnt directly underneath or she woulda been fried. The top 3-4 inches of her main cola is now growing up the *side* of my light hood.
I was wondering if anyone else had run into this problem, and what should I do about it? It jst seems to late to really do *anything*, I cant cut the top and I think LST might be to much of a strain on her. If anyone has any advice on what I should do, please let me know. The other plants are still a good foot or so away, so Im not to worried about them ATM, altho they are enroaching dangerous territory as well.carinia Reviewed by carinia on .

Well then heres some pics
You can see where she shot up just right out of the field of the light (thats what I get for leavin em alone for a few days). The other pics are of my other girls who are still, for the moment, behaving themselves. As you can see its kinda cramped
Thats not a bad idea, i wonder what I could stake her to in there to even her out. Shes got some pretty stiff stems so Im kind of afraid Im going to break er.

)
Good luck.
