This is my first grow

I have 10 vegetative plants, plus a seedling((baggieseed))
•Four in 2 gal fabric pots, topped ((attempting sorta manifold and lst))
•Six in 1 gal fabric pots, 3 clones, 3 from seed*
((Just tryna growthem as big as theyll get after switching to 12/12 in about 5 days))

Also, im pretty sure that only 1 of the 3 from seed* in 1 gal pots, might be male but who knowz
Could pull one or two out and try to keep them alive on windowsill till next grows ready

**The struggle of not having enough space for a second tent**

too full already. might have worked if you didn't top them, and gave way less veg. plants are going to double in size once you flip. do you see anywhere for them to go horizontally?

the 4 in fabric pots topped is about all I would do. tbh I would probably pick the best 3 if you want to continue training them. they will continue to bush out and you need room for that.

3 clones might be your best shot if they are all the same strain since this way the heights will be even across the canopy.

3 seed plants alone will take up the whole tent, depending on how stable the genetics are u could have 3 totally different plants on your hands.

if you try to flower what u got in that pic you are going to stifle everything and have to defoliate the entire grow, which is going to affect yield.

Might get rid of some then and keep two or three ofthe big ones,, theyre all showing female preflowers
And genetics are from this grower i know, seem really decent so far, just bummed i couldve asked sooner , but so far its been a lot of fun caring for these living organism haha

they look really healthy and happy so far. your doing great for your first grow! it's easy to want to cram a bunch in, but less is more in this case. once you get the hang of it you could maximize your space and try a SOG with a bunch of plants, but for now 3 or 4 will keep you plenty busy. or like PJ said just do 2 plants to keep it real simple. good luck!

They say young Jesus was a badass.

" 2 1 And the son of Annas the scribe had come with Joseph. And taking a willow twig, he destroyed the pools and drained out the water which Jesus had gathered together. And he dried up their gatherings.
2 And Jesus, seeing what had happened, said to him, “Your fruit (shall be) without root and your shoot shall be dried up like a branch scorched by a strong wind.”
3 And instantly that child withered. "

Here's another one:

" 3 1 While he was going from there with his father Joseph, a child running tore into his shoulder. And Jesus said to him, “You shall no longer go our way.” And instantly he died. At once the people, seeing that he was dead, cried out and said, “Where was this boy born that his word becomes a deed?” "

(Infancy Gospel of Thomas)

I'd go for flowering them out in there before tossing them out. Just get ready to flower ASAP. could do ScroG and bend those soft tops over to tie to the screen and not just let them grow up thru the screen. Or supercrop any tall tops.

You will probably need to get that light up close to the roof for more clearance. This is what I did with the little COB light I just bought used with a 2x4x5'h tent.

The light came with these long fishing leaders to hang it with so losing almost 13" right there.

I took those f'ers off and hooked some chain thru the clips to shorten the hookup. If need be I could slip the chains over centre cross bar and be just a few inches from the ceiling. I can tighten them right up almost flat to the top of the light too.

I mean you'd have quite the jungle to deal with but what is life without it's challenges. :)

Right on man ! Thats sorta like what i did actually
Also the 320w QB board light i got came with a power adjustment knob
The lights at about 18-20in from canopy(probably farther since supercropped like a hurricane lol a few minutes ago)
Lux app on my phone says 20k on outer edges and 30k in center, but then again can you really trust an app??
Increased power to 50% so 160w...
Day 41 Veg

Right now theyre in 2gal fabric pots
2 weeks ago, plan on switching in a few days.
Should i flower in 2gals or go up to 3gals in a couple weeks .
I have some 5gal fabric pots laying around because i got carried away online shopping lol
I feel those might still be too big ...

By rights those 4 pots in that pic are probably what you should go with. They'll crowd it out pretty good all on their own but with pruning LST and some super cropping you could make them all fit.

If they are all the same strain then just the 4 will probably give you near the same yield as doing all 10. I've seen guys on here grow pretty decent plants in those red party cups just by making sure they get enough food so you don't have to use bigger pots for them all. Set pots on top of stuff to get the canopy more even for better lighting.

I've decided to move my 4 known females downstairs in a week or so to flower after I get at least 2 cuttings off each. Those are hi-CBD fem plants that have shown sex. My other 5, the Nepali Temple, are still being shy and are regulars so bound to be a male or two in there somewhere. I'll be getting pollen to make more seeds of that strain and maybe cross it with one or two of the CBD girls. They can share the tent with my humidity dome and the cuttings.

Black pots are the bushier CBD girls.

nice man, they look solid.
3 of my 4 plants that I left in there, are the same strain from seed, Double Funk,
the other one is a cross the guy who gave me the seeds did, he named it Funky Banana so im guessing it might be related genetics
they're recovering well, I think from here ill just lst, maybe super crop lightly later on, mostlikely will just leave in 2gal pots, that's as much as I can really do for these.
flipping in 3 days.
Ill post harvest results if all goes well.
peace.
