[Dutchman1990]

Yes I held off lol! I went and did some work in the tent getting photos and removing a few leaves

 

[Tipistroy]

I might end up with a issue here... my light is max out on height.... and the plant are growing so fast now... my tent is only 5’ high.

 

[Stupidface]

Yeah, I've been there. Can you post of pic of how your light is hanging? Might be able to save a few inches by changing around the wire hangers. And training the plants will be important.

I think you listed it as a 1000w led, do you know what wattage it actually draws? And how far from the plants is it now?

The 1000w oneo is not in use atm, I bought a new one last week, Unitfarm ufo160 (365w draw). The 1000w was only pulling 180w. I can take a picture when I get home for the light height. Its over 30” for sure above now but at 24” the leaf didnt like it to much and as soon as I moved it to 30” they were praying!! Hehe

 

[Tipistroy]

For LST im tiying the brench to the pot with pipe cleaner. Sems to be working nice

The good news is the plant can handle being closer to the light as it gets older. Do you use the adjustable ratchet hangers?

With the picture I'm more curious about how the wires connect to the light and your tent.

Pretty much as high as they'll get. Different hangers than my lights so my trick wont help. In a pinch you could remove the ratcheting hangers and tie the light directly to the tent but it probably wont come to that. Eventually you'll be able to have the light 16-20" from the plants, so if you can keep the plants spread out with training you'll be fine.

If I keep them open and spread like this I should be ok then!!

 

[Tipistroy]

Can I do some defoliation without stressing them to much??? To many leaf in the way haha

 

[AngryBird]

Yes, you can cut of a few leaves, pruning.
Don't do too much

Can I remove the 2 big fan leaves from the second node?? They get to big and in the way

 

[AngryBird]

Do you have more fan leaves above?
If yes, then cut.
If no, wait until you have.. They feed from those

[AngryBird]

The lower ones are usually the biggest.
Ok, test this... Think a circle, cut one leave one.
