I read or heard somewhere that bending branches actually increased hormone and makes the plant want to grown more.



This is true training your plants redistributes the auxins...also I can relate to the cluster fuck lol I'm on my first grow and it has been as well but its going much better now..glad to hear yours is going smoothly :)
Is your cluster fuck growing in a Phototron? if not, why was it so clustered?
I would like to see your plant.. do you have any pictures anywhere on the site?

No it wasn't and well originally was growing in a small closet and doing what I was told by my bf of the time I had no space and they were stretching and the whole situation was a mess! And well I do have pics but seems my thread has been turned into a toke and talk so its really hard to find pics its like 170 pages but if you have the patience I'd gladly direct you to my grow :bigjoint:

Hi,
I am going to take some photos tonite of my phototron from a distance so you can see what it looks like. Its kinda futuristic looking, slick. It stands about 4 feet tall and is octogonal in shape.
each side is plastic panel that can be removed. Florescent lights go up vertically next to each panel
There are about 6 panels around. There is an electric cord that hangs from the top for a veg or bloom grow light. It has small computer fans on one panel, an intake and an outtake. I use a peet moss type mulch for her grow medium with an air filter under it all. I use a special tinsel looking stuff ontop of the soil. I bought it from Pyraponics as they said it was not your ordinary tinsel but a special plant friendly tinsle... go figure.. but any way it seems to do no harm and the plant doesnt mind it.
One of the nicest things about the unit is the ability to control the temperature and the amount of light all the leaves recieve is amazing.
Downfall. Fits one plant ok with tons of tie backs. It was also like $500 dollars!!!OUCH!!!!
But if you have limited space its great, and its easy to conceal.

Dude. Your whole system is art. Very creative. Its like a space capsule for the plant! The 360 degree turn makes it look like its getting ready to be displayed at a museum. Radical man! And your photo Super Lemon Haze in a Phototron-pix-0055 is breath taking. Nice leaves my man! Keep up the good work!

Thanks everyone for the great positive feedback. I appreciate it a lot.
I would like to answer some of the questions about the phototron.
I do believe the lights are T-12. The vertical lighting system is killer because it hits the lower leaves.
The unit also had an electic cord for an additional light which hangs down from the top inside. I use a germination light at first , then a veg light and now a blooming light.
I have to move it up everyday she is growing so fast.
I think the entire unit is about 4 1/2 feet tall. All of the panels can be removed. They all have a reflective inside mirror like finish. And use a reflective mulch tinslle looking thing sold by Pyraponics.
I use an air pump under the peat moss.
Presently I am using Flora Nova Bloom only with distilled water.
I am going to be adding Bloombastic starting next week.
The phototron comes on a cool spinning plate so I can turn and spin her around to open the window and work on her.
There is a small computer fan built into one of the panels... intake and outake, but I also use a standing fan for extra flow. I leave two of her smaller panels up with the help of a 12 inch ruler.
I keep a plastic tube in the pot for dip stick water checks.. right now she is thirsty as hell and I have to water her a lot.
She is growing like mad and I have to use dental floss to pull back her branches trying to train her to grow up and away from the lights. It seems to be working well.
Also, when I put her to sleep at night I put covers on her panels so absolutely NO light gets in as the night turns to day.
I custom designed think black plastic sheets with velcro tabs that I can take on and off easily.
As far as waking her up. Luckily my husband works the night shift so he takes off her covers and opens her panels about an hour after she wakes up so that the unit heats up a bit.
I keep the temperature at around 72 with humidity around 40%. Humidity has been a bit hard for me to control. I have a humidifier ordered and on the way.
I am really happy with the results so far.
I topped her once just before I put her into 12/12.
I bought the biggest possible Phototron available. I wish they made them bigger.
I will keep posting pictures....looking forward to sharing them with all you cool cats...
