I'll let you know before you need to......
Ringing one around my trainwreck tomorrow.
Alright cool thanks. Just worried because I need to try to fit two 2g smart pots wide with the plants when the width in my veg cab is only 16in, which the size of those pots side by side.

your vegging plants can be on top of each other. just make sure you rotate plenty, for even growth.



You see the picture of my garden yesterday?? MOST of my plants are touching or have branches that look like they come from another plant. just because of placement.

Thought this was a fun comparison picture. First picture is Unknown #1 20 days ago; the second picture is her now.

Yeah I checked out your packed ass garden haha. Alright I was just worried they were overlapping too much. Well I should be alright on the rings for now, for flowering might be a different story. I have that one flowering and it's hitting both sides in my 27in deep closest. I need two plants in that spot depth wise lol

Put a net in place 2 weeks before flowering. Just remember "the stretch" and weave the branches through the net when it starts, until it finishes.. It makes it impossible to move the plants around but it will help with overall yield :)

Well I'm not looking to scrog or anything. I'm trying to get it less wide remember.

i meant space. :) the veg cab is seperate from your flower cab.
What is the height inside the veg cab?
and size of your flowering area

Ooooh lol. My veg cab is 16in wide, and with pot height I got 2ft of plant room. My flower closest is about 27-28in wide and has probably at least 5 ft in height to work with if not more.

Cheap 4' bamboo stakes from walmart. and "plant tie"(aka Plant Tape)...

you can cut the bamboo in half to start with.
use 4 or more per pot and just ring the tape around.

You have to remember the tomato planter things have huge gaps between.
and it's not so easy to just move them around as it is to slide tape up or add more.
(the plant tape is not sticky. it's not even tape, it's a green plastic material)

That should save you some coin, unless you planned to use something you already had.

If you already have the tomato stacks just get some tape too so you can control the plant above the first ring, until it reaches the second.

Sound easy enough? and cheap enough? shouldn't be more than $10-$15 for that and you get 20+ stakes per pack.
so you'll have plenty. just keep them clean and reuse them. :)

Exactly what I needed thanks. Yeah I don't know if I have any around or not but I see what you're saying about the gap. Should help my plants stay less wider, don't know if I said that right lol. You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to SxIstew again.

So I said one of my seeds sprouted, by the 8 ball kush ones are just rising up this morning. So I'm going to consider today, day 1 of BF 8Ball Kush #1-3 and Black Domina x Bubblegum. Still no sign of the BD x SS so still waiting for those. Also my first clone I ever taken in my life is poking out some nice roots so it will be put in soil probably tomorrow. So at least I know, as of now, the mystery Plato strain will live on. Going to take a few more clones before I send the four Platos to flower, and when the seedlings are out of the clone dome. The journey can really begin now. Cloning is freakin' easy haha.

I got my 4' stakes at Lowe's, like 1.25 each, and the roll of tape (enough to wrap a car a couple times) was 3 bucks I think.
That's what I'm using on my Kush and bagseed.

I was just checking out my vegging plants and one of the Platos has a calyx with some pistils. After my last one was a male now I can grow out a female and see how good the bud is :) So out of 6 bagseeds of this strain, it's been 50/50 male female so far. Not bad.
