STRAIN SSSDH they are veging for some time now they are like 4x4 now they are in 20 gallon grow bags they will soon go to 35 gallon smart pots seting in 4 kidy pools.Picked up a 28,000 watt A/C aso have a 750 cfm blower to pull the heat out of the top of the room I will put chicken wire on the top of room.Also panda film on the walls.All organic just water mix ,its all in there good stuff.Now The middle light will stay on for 12 hours the outer lights will run a flip flop on 2 relays 6 hours each run in lines like heath shows.My elec. guy is wireing the room now The plants wont go into the room till like Aug 10 I will show the room this week please pick it apart and help me out I need it .I know its more A/C than I need but im also puting togeather another room beside that one for a flower room shelves and v scrog but that wont be till late aug this one first.Also I set up a 7x12 veg room with 5 400 to start veging a new run of 4 sssdh so the flower room will stay flowering 12 months out of a year.Thanks guys couldnt do it with out you!

each one 4x4

dont want to piss on your paraid dude but i think your going to be in trobble with them girls unless you cut them back...

HGO can you back me up here you grow SSSDH on a regular basis and to be honest any strain that is anything other than a 100% indica even a nonstretchy is going to be to big at 4x4...


see my C4 only doubles its not an over stretchy plant at all but if you only have a 10ft x 10ft room that then each plant only has 5ft x 5ft so thats a ft around the edge of the plant... honestly you seem to have your head switched on if you got this far but cut them girls back or you going to have a room full of burnt stems and plant matter thats starved of light...

Hell I've grown SSDh and it stretches like a mutha- F*cka....I am wondering also how your going to control these ovegrown bitches LOL. I mean light placement will be interesting to see and when do you start (or ARE you going to start?) topping, training, will you use a trellis or any type of bamboo to support the buds, hell this could be off dah hookha!
:wahey::peek:

if he flowers 4 - 4ft x 4ft SSSDH even with super cool, cool tubes i cant see it being productive... if you have a month cut them right back to keep the big root system you have bigger the better and the growth in the next month will be enough TRUST ME!!!! i wish you all the best i like to see people succeed not Fail...

well some people think you DON'T Lollipop IF your doing vertical, think about it, with vertical you can have bud colas running all the way from the top to the bottom. That's just ONE reason I went to vertical when I saw the potential for much more yield, Aerohead's thread goes into this and he describes HOW much bud he got from the branches he normally would lollipop.

Just my two cents though, good luck!

im with what mega said 100% just look down the plants to the lowest node on each branch and cut it there so you have at least 6 to 8 branches with nodes and in the month vegging you got they will come back tenfold... all lollypopin is for SOG imo you want your side branches for big fat long base bat buds.. not a tal skinny plant with buds only in the top half of the plant hitting the roof!!!!

just had a look at the plants from in june and they look like you had quite a bit of growth down low!! thats good because if it was a problem i would have said thin them out a little in the middle and round the edges and then bend and train the top end tips back to the main stem at the base and let the internodes on each branch become the new lead shoots...

some pic's of the plants now would be cool :D

Like this but with multiple stems...

if you have the growth down low dont worrie about it but if not then bend over 6 stems like above and cut the rest off!!! you only have to loo down the stems you have tied down to know how many new main colas you are going to have...

i want picks :D:D:D

Also just my advice and what i would do like i have in the above pick i would defoliate and take every large fan leaf off of the plants as this will let more light into the plants and promote new growth and if you have a month to recover them girls will be rockin!!!
