hi
i've 3 femaleseeds grapefruit on the go currently growing under 3 floros in soil they are about 8'' at the moment. i want to grow on from these, 8 cuttings to use in a scrog under 600w hps using hydro. anyone got any advice on getting where i am to where i want to be?

i've topped one of them and used a bit of lst on the others but the results don't seem great , i think the floros aren't quite bright enough and the growroom isn't fully light tight yet so i've had to hold back the hps for a couple of weeks. how do i get these plants in shape to take the cuttings?

I have 1 going now I let it veg till she was 12-14 inches, as soon as she went from floro's to my hps the growth just exploded with branches everywhere easily could have taken 15-20 cuttings and still have plenty left to flower, just some advice don't let her grow much higher before you switch over to 12/12 as grapefruit tend to really stretch allot.
