I use leds in veg and hps in flower and leds in another flower. I run them HIGH off the canopy because im not used to that much light being an hps guy. I dont think i have been any closer then 24" on the leds.
I use full spec white leds with far red chips and I run my lights at 15 inches above. For future reference. When I went twelve I light burned

Little update,

Canopy is fulling up again, no signs of stress. Its looking more.....right. but there are so many branches is hard to LST to widen them. Thnikin i could try to let them get taller, and then they will naturally get wider, and continue pruning the bottom til i eventually end up with a lollypop....ill install the trellis when i feel its high enough to do some work under.

OR.

should I prune heavier and pick 10 branches on each to Lst?
Just snap the branches that are higher at 90 degrees and they’ll heal up even and grow with it.

As you can see , your donut had almost filled back out.....yes i would do some more major work....more bending then taking though. Your bottom of that one plant is great...thats what you want as its all wasted energy that can be used for the tops you are focusing on.

4 real? Its week 6 in pots. 1 week as plugs first. 3 weeks in 3l. Now 3 weeks in 40l. Got 30cm pot height. 30cm plant height. Gonna be looooow.

Ive seen the same pheno before under 50% hid and 50% mh. Was waaaay taller. With the scrog at about a 100cm.

Theese were run with erryang just like me but the lights mmm....i mean errthang...same strain...same pheno....same outdoor AND outdoor environment.....leds vs hids....

Am i stupid wanting some height to work under?

You think the leds are keeping them low and i should consider this good because many branches came fast ..and just scrog away ...and flower soon.....?

Probably waited a little too long to LST but it's still doable.

They will get taller during stretch. Continue to LST during stretch. LST is a constant work in progress.

Yes , thats what im thinking .....your not getting ANY stretch with them leds so your going to have to lst to get them trained to where you want them. Im thinking taking half the plant away will speed the other half up and fill out your tent quicker.
I have no problem seeing them taller but your lights are not letting it happen....plants are too full. Thin them out and they will grow faster. If you have 50 branches then get rid of the lowest 25 ish.

Bend all the tops over as far as you can without breaking the branch, after that you will have a nice wide plant , now its just a matter of waiting for them to grow upwards... wont take long at all after you thin them out some.
