what should i do in this situation?...

im using 4 40w (3000k,2600 lumens) and 2 26w (daylight,1700 lumens) cfls in around 4 or 5 cubic feet(dresser measures 18 inches wide,24 inches tall (can get up to about 40 inches tall) and 24 inches long.) im using cfl's and my plant has gotten so dense i have about 20 main growth spots/nodes/or whatever ya call em that are fairly big (real thick stems, huge fan leaves.) but their are also like 30 or 40 (i went a little crazy w/suppercroping,fim,topping,pruning, and tying down,they all have big fan leaves blocking light should of clip the new growth so it will focus on the older growth or should i clip some of the older growths so it'll concentrate on the new growth?

Can you screen the bud sites as in a screen of green?

funny thing is i was using a scrog b4 i knew what it was, but its not really feasible right now cuz i been using 5 40w 3000k cfls on the sides of the plant and im in flowering and flowers are showing up everywhere etc....

i really wish i had a pic to show everyone but no scanner or camera cuz they stopped working with my computer...

cutting leaves only stresses plants

i'm no expert...but i would hate for you to harm the plant especially since it sounds like you got something good going on for you....

get a whole lot of string... and start tying this motherfudger down.... you know...bending.. one guy on here had his tied in the shape of a circle (shape of the pot)

you can cut up to 1/3 of your fan leaves without stressing your plant...

I would split it up,.,, take clowdy's advice and tuck some of the lower lower ones away and some of the ones that are hard to tuck away take my advice and clip them off (fan leaves only)

ive heard of people removing partial leaves 3-4 of the fingers on the individual leaf..........

ya i even heard of people only cuting 1 leaf but im not a big fan of cuting
so u could lst them or tie them down a little and tuck some at the same time
why put stress onher when u could tie and tuck :0)
