G'day everyone:mrgreen:,
I'm new to this site and it's my first time growing in a grow room (virgin).
I have come across my first problem regarding hieght restrictions. Just changed to 12/12 and only got about 300mm (1 foot) to go till the tips touch my 400w HPS light.
I cant really tie them down as thay are very bushy little suckers so i was thinking about flywire maybe? or mesh.
If anyone has had this same problem of could give me some good advice it will be very much appreciated?

I had a similar problem. I use chicken wire. I top my plants in veg, start low stress training, move them to flower under a screen. This last grow I am trying super cropping. That's where you pinch the stem and fold it. Check out my cabinet grow journal for ideas I am on my fourth grow now.​

Thanks Happyface, that bloke homegrown sounds like a bit of a WANKER.

Anyway I ended up screwing in 4 small hooks (1 in each corner) and attached some 2"x2" plastic lattice type stuff into my box.

Had to bend plants down almost a foot and threaded the tops through lattice.

It acts just like the screen of green and now if the tips start getting to high I can tie them back down to the lattice.

By the way I only kinked one of the many branches that I had to bend but it is holding up ok so far.
