I think you should start Lst or supercropping those plants. With the type of lights your using you will end up with some good top nugs and a bunch of garbage underneath if you let those plants get too tall....which they already appear to be in my opinion..for t5s and/or cfl's. When you take into consideration that those plants are gonna stretch for a few weeks Still.

Yeah a little worried about the Durban Poison being so tall already but i am afraid to do anything to it. This is only my 2nd grow.

There are a couple of things you could do to get the height under control. If you want to veg for longer you could top them to get them to an even canopy. You could tie down some of the side branches to open the plant up more to get light in to the inside and lower parts. You could also tie some string to the top and bend it over as far as you are comfortable doing and tie it to something to get it lower, the top will start to grow straight up again after you anchor it down.

Yeah I think my issue is when I did my first grow (2 plants) it was from bag seed. So this grow I was thinking I have enough room I should do 3 plants. Problem is with the all around upgrade I did with soil, seeds, lights they are width wise pressing the limits of my grow area. So I don't think I have enough room to lst or tie them down cause I just don't have a lot of side to side room. I figure take it as lesson learned and keep them growing normal cause I have a few feet before I would have any problems. Next time I think growing 2 plants again will give me some more flexibility if I run into a height problem.
