I usually start topping or F.I.M mine when there only about 12 inches tall after about 5th node development I start lightly n FIM them since it little lower stress then about another week or 2 I completely top them and let them recover and go into flower 2 t5s tho is very little light for them that probably why they are stretching in my opinion

Yes!! Your right the lighting is not enough at this point and is the reason they stretched but I felt like it was ok , as I have a 4x4x8 grow area for them ....to me so they are taller rather then fatter??? I'm loving all the input this is such a great group!!!

When using t5 lights you should have them closer so you don't get such a stretch on your ladies they don't proofs much eat so you can have them inches away from your plants as far as training I always start at no numbers 6 through 8 somewhere in there and cut back to nodes to top that way she has a strong foundation and a thicker stock and I always use L St and wants those branches get some growth on my way either top them off in them again around node six seven or eight back to nodes if I'm going to top off am at the top know if I'm going to fim

Ok good to know about the T5 , I'm in the process of switching over from HPS TO LED for flower and this is new to me so any tips for that are welcomed also!!!

Stay with HPS or check out the new light called LEC CMH grow lights. They are HPS with heat and a better spectrum

These plants are maybe 3 weeks old look at the node stacking

So in one of my grow room 101 threads I discussed lighting a 400 watt mh is optimal coverage for 3x3 are yous is a 2x3 but close enough so hears a brake down of comparison to other lights

As you can see it would take 10 t5 to get same a mouth of light since you are only running 2 you are running 20 percent of optimal light performance and if they stretch to much and get to thin I'm flower they may bend even worse brake
