I was wondering what you all do to train your plants in flower or veg to limit popcorn bud. Keep in mind I veg horizontal with a 8 bulb t5 and flower with 600w hps. Thanks in advance.:-P

I'd say it really depends on how you're growing. Trees? Vertical SOG? Vertical SCROG? You can do most of what you can do with a horizontal grow, vertically. How it's done really depends on the orientation of your plants though.

Probably will require some experimentation as strains might grow a bit differently under vertical light relative their orientation.

Too bad I cant train in the veg tent for a V-scrog using horizontal lighting. I will have room in one of the flower tents for it..... Or can I??

It is the type of lighting im using in veg. I use a 8 bulb T5 light. Plus I have a perpetual set up going with different grow systems being tested.

One tip is to top early and often. Then eliminate the tops that are not going to get enough light after the plants have stopped stretching. which is usually around week 3.

i grow multstrains, so i just lest em go! for the most pars, especially since i just cram as many as i can get in there(SOG). branchy little indicas up front topped and bushed out and stretch single cola sats int the back growing tall and lolipopped a little.
