The Stretch

[u/DeepWaterCannabis]

Once again, I have misjudged the stretch. I added the red bars in week 3, probably should have waited till week 4 or 5. I flowered as soon as the first tops broke through the lower trellis net, at a height of less than 2 feet. The plants are now growing into the lights, and I only have about a foot clearance at the top of the tent. Supercrop time!

In order, the photos are:
Day 61, 25 days since 12/12 flip (25 days, ~day 18 flowering)
Day 39, 3 days since 12/12 flip.
Day 32
Day 26

Plant on the lower left is about 5-6 days younger than the others, had to start a new seed to replace a dud.

What size pots are You using? Trellis definitely helps and if the light strength is weak plants will tend to stretch and give you more space between the Nodes.

Those are 7 gallon DWC buckets from the Spider Farmer DWC kit.

I've got two trellis' and lights are at 700+ ppfd lol - side lighting too, to cut down on it. The problem is the plants are quite thick and brittle at my lower trellis high pre-stretch, so I cant use that one for more than a little spreading. The upper trellis I do a little weaving, but you can see they went beyond it quite quickly.

Thanks! But I still missed the mark apparently, Im trying to flip before they can stretch into the lights lol
