Should I kill one of my plants?

[tharoomman]

I don't think I have enough room in my closet for all my plants. I'm thinking of pulling one up. I'm 1 week into flowering. The one I'm thinking of pulling up(sourcream) looks really weird and is very bushy and tall. Falling everywhere.

would you pull it up to make space for the others?----

 

[tharoomman]

I got my camera to work. The one I'm thinking of killing is on the right.The other two don't have any room to breath.
I got the 2 90watt triband LED ufo's today from HTG. Didn't want to have to deal with the heat issue of adding another HID.

You grow in a closet .. what it the rest of your setup? What type of lighting and what wattage? What sort of reflective material are you using? Do you have a ventilation system, or even just a fan blowing into the closet? Etc.?

OK .. you answered parts of my question while I was typing it .. in that you are using LEDs .. I will not advise since I have no practical experience with them.

Good luck.

Yeah, I didn't really want to go with LED's but for convenience. Later on in the year I'm gonna replace all the lights with a 1000 watt HPS.

jus keep it unless u realllllly want it gone then kill it... I hate to waste wish i could grow em all lol

if its gonna affect the others, get it out of there, overcrowding will only hurt yield. JMO

 

[WimpyVNWK]

I agree with knuck overcrowding will lower yeild because it will not allow enough light to reach below the canopy so get it out. BUT DO NOT WASTE. everyone knows that taking a plant from flower to veg will weaken is quality but I would (personally) take as many clone as I can from her so I have a start for round two

go with a 600, you can place the bulb closer, easier to control temps, less energy consumption as well. consider 2 600s for better distribution of light too. been there with 2 1000s and ill take 2 600s over the 2 thousands any day.

Yeah - you're only one week in, you can still chop her up into little bits and make a hundred clones. Keep what you need, sell the rest. Or runaround the night planting them all around your area like a little Johnny Canna-seed.
You could always just chop her down to size - if she's just gotten too big, but you have the floor space, just chop her to size. Yes it will impact the yield (duh?), but better to get some than none.

Sounds like a plan.I'm not gonna clone though. Too much trouble. later on in the year I'll get a clone machine.

It will be fun to see how she reacts to me taking away 3/4 of her girth. She's gonna be made really really small. When I get batteries today I'm gonna take some pics. I'm doing it for Bubba Kush and Sweet deep grapefruit.

I'll put bubba kush and sweet deep grapefruit in some bondage after sourcream has been cut down some.

Also I woke up at like 1 in the morning and my 2 led UFO's were ON!!!!!WTF? I forgot to put them on the power strip with the timer. We'll see how that affects them as well. Hopefully ok. But, like, goddamn. Of all the stupid mistakes I could make, I do that. Nothing I can do bout it now.

Just an update, lights that stayed on 6 hours past when they were suppose to shut off didn't have any affect on the plants. Also, poor Sweet Deep Grapefruit hermie'd from having a crazy ass light scheduel in my bedroom. Kinda felt sorry for it. It look all mutated and shit.
