is there any way to hook the lights up so that they are on the side of the plant instead of on top of it?.... other then that you can tie the plant to the side as to bend it over a bit so the lights can fit... just tie a string about 3/4 of the way up the plant and bend it a little and tie it off... then you can bend it some more the next day and so on...

try tying them down...be careful not to bend the stem too much....

Thanks for the info notorious P.O.T we will have a go at tying them down as we can not move the lamp to the side of the plant, as soon as i figure out how to upload pics i will add my pics.

Thanks

Mine did that too. I tried, the bend them over slowly method, but they cracked at the stem. No matter, they didn't miss a beat, started growing back toward the light. You have to keep the space between the the light and the top of the plants, during flowering, at least 15 inches (HPS).

You should've planned for this lol!

I'm so unhelpful

No but seriously the best thing you could do is just tie them down or something (if this is still possible )

Thanks Dutch pimp for your info hope our plants dont break when we bend them today.
Can you tell me why i can't upload my pics of my first ever crop :-( we are so proud of them :-)
Cheers
