ahh the age old debate of trimming leaves..... hahaha some say yes, while some say no.
me? I seem to get antsy during flower and trim leaves. but I swear I am gonna try real hard not to on my thai fantasy.
once again famous last words.

your plant will stretch for the first three - four weeks of flower, perfectly normal.
like I said your lookin real good.

If height is an issue for your grow you may want to consider Topping your plant. I would defoliate some of the fan leaves to open up the light to the branches.

Next grow I will trim them at an early stage...

I thought that during the flowering stage my plant would stop growing but If it still growing during 4 more weeks she is going to be close to four feet and I only have a 150watt lamp to feed her.
Do you think this is going to be a problem ?
should I Buy a 400Watts ?

I would upgrade your light to a 400 watt or higher High Intensity Discharge light or a LED panel. A 400 watt High Pressure Sodium light will have much better penetration then the 150 watt one. A larger wattage light should also give you a larger harvest.

High Artopex
Just caught up on your journal and will tag a long on this grow. Very interested in how your 150 w hps does. I am looking to upgrade to one myself as I am using only cfl and t5's for the last 4 grows. 400 w in my small closet worries me, led looks very good but still out of this old boys price range for now. Great videos from the King, can't get enough info from everyone at this site,love it!
Keep them green brother
