Hi all - Just wrote this and added a pic, but forgot to submit!

HPS bulb blew out after 4 days in flowering, just as I was headed out of town for a few days. Had to switch back to MH. Got home and all plants seem to have grown almost 6 inches and are now only a few inches from the air-cooled 400w lamp.

The Hydro box is only 3'x3'x30" and the stems are pretty thick on these auto-flower dwarfs. Don't know if I will be able to bend them ala ScOG.

Can I 'top' them at this stage of the game and still hope to get a decent outcome for my client? Since they'll only be starting to flower I'm presuming I'll need to clip at least 2 nodes down o maybe 5-6 inches?

Any suggestions or help will be great. Should have the new HPS bulb today.

White area at top of pic is the lamp!!

Thanks ever-so-much or any advice -
