Just to mention an earlier post.... I got fucked up growth on my seedlings when I first started. It wasn't a bad seed. I put them under the LED way too early and it was light saturation that caused it. I now use t5 until it's about a week old then they go under the led. LEDs are awesome but they aren't great for seedlings I've found

Hey guys my 600w HPS is arriving tommorow... and im gona re-setup my grow op.. Im not sure whether to go with my 450w for veg and add the 600w to the 300w in the bathroom and make that my flowering room as my current flowering room isnt 100% light sealed... Any advice would help... another problem im gona experience is my first 610609302_755604294482772_1535049614_n.jpg now 5 flowering have been flowering for i would say 10-15days as for the ones vegging have been vegging for about 1month now... I want to have a perpetual grow but i was wondering if i will have my plants in veg too long might effect them... as we are looking at 2months atleast until the flowering ones are done which means plants will be 3months+ in veg.. anyone can advise me please

If you have 8-10' ceilings, you *can* veg for three months, I'd personally just keep topping as often as possible. If they get too out of hand, just clone them, and start veg all over again brand new (don't toss the big plants until you know for sure the new clones get off to a good start.

Again though, with a good clipping regimen along with some LST, it could be possible, but remember, your plants will 'stretch' 2-3 times within the first 21-24 days of flower.

You can do a hard topping on your plants and they will recover. check out mainlining in the subcools oldschool organics.

@Dr.Pecker Thanks for that forum its amazing... subcools grow is insane i love the way to spread the canopy must be best technique for LEDS or any lights almost cause of even canopy... but i think only downside is probably long veg time as they slow down everytime topped... or should i fim instead

Both are good. Mainlineing only really works on a plant with symmetrical node formation. I don't really know It might work for any plant I guess. I always called it hard pruning but its a good way to keep a plant down. If you have some tall plants you can chop the top out and tie them down.

Im choosing to stick to all my lights but just trying to figure out how to spread them out... as i have now 600w hps, 450w LED, and a 300w LED.. any advice? 450+300w for veg and 600w HPS for flowering?? or 450w LED for veg and 600w HPS+300w LED for flowering... but i think it will be choice of LEDs being together and HPS being alone because easier to setup

@luciferi The good book says you will eat from the sweat of your brow. That means it takes a lot of work to get results. If you do organics properly you will be growing soil not plants.

That big light is a little high in the first pic. keep an eye on the temps above your plants. Its always best to set up and run your grow room without plants for a couple days so you can work out all the bugs.
