My grow room, am I FUCKED

Ok this is my grow room very amatuer I know but It does the job. I've started flowering recently. One is a girl the other I think its showing signs of being a female as welll. Anyway to my point

A) I have not yet topped my plant looking at the space I have am I in the shit or do I still have enough grow space to accomodate produce if I were to top this week.

B) The big light in the middle is a cool white bulb would I be able to use this in combination with the other bulbs to flower with? I haven't been using it so far but will be willing to try until my larger warm bulb arrives if possible.

top it now mate. and loose the trays?????? all white is good.
lookin good mate. get all bulbs you have goin on them. the more the merrier.
keep us updated
good luck

more lights the better....theres never enough light...ADD every cfl you have...and get a fan in there..


must have been tying @ the sametime

I wouldn't recommend topping a flowering plant. If you stress her like that, chances are it will turn hermie on you. The plant will likely grow 2-3 times it's current size before your finished so things will be tight. I think your best bet would be an attempt at SCROG.

As for b) you can use the cool white in addition to a warm light. Some people recommend giving their plants a mixed spectrum during flower.

The following link is taken from the FAQ explaining how this is done. You can find other sources of information in part 3 of the FAQ. https://www.rollitup.org/view.php?pg=faq&cmd=article&id=268

Cheers for the advice guys.

What height level would you suggest Scrog?

how do i send my own post?

You can pinch out the top of a plant after switching without causing it too much grief as long as its before the end of the first week or before the female parts form.

As for the lighting, I would suggest that if you are going to use that cool blue that you add in a few more 2700 kelvin warm white CFLs too. Perhaps get some double adapters for your smaller CFLs and double the amount of smaller CFLs.

Its flowering time, and the more red spectrum light, and overall coverage of your plants, the better.

Also looks like light may be getting into the roots area because of the type of pots ur using. Might want to wrap something around them to stop that happeneing.

Personally I'd put the mesh at about the height your plant is currently, or a couple of inches below, and then train any extra growth to grow horizontally and fill out the mesh.

I wouldn't top those now not already in flowering, it won't gain you a thing but will probably loose you yield. If she gets too tall just tie her top down, but don't cut or pinch anything there's no time to grow multiple cola's left.

It's too late to scrog or anything else either. You need veg time to make a scrog fill out, so you won't gain anything over just tying her top down which in effect does the exact same thing as trying to go scrog now, but is much easier and less restrictive.

And yes use all the lights now, you don't need to buy anything more to use them but you shouldn't be running any of them vertically not even the little ones, they all put out more lumens 90% to the sides, so mount them horizontally.

Lastly the reflectors on the little cfl's don't do anything. Cfl's are only good for few inches away and by the time the light bounces off the makeshift reflectors it just has no intensity left. A hood on the big cfl would be a diffferent story, it has more throw and would be worth using a reflector on.

Ahh shit one of the large fan leaves at the bottom broke off when I was tying the plant down. Will this affect the plant a lot?

It will be fine just go slow with the training bend it a little each day till you get it where you want it..

If it's a lowrider it should be fine can't say that if it's a clone.

Nope not a clone
