If you staple some form of mesh along the 3 walls then you can tie plants to it to keep the back.

Should mean the plants won't over grow your cool tube like they do unrestrained.

If the mesh can't be done then some bamboo stakes in the pots can be used all the same to keep plants back.

Do you really need it though? With the size of the light and a cool tube I'd think you could run them right up to a couple inches around the bulb...

Looking good, what size pots are those?

 

[budelight]

I think they are half gallon... Have them about half filled with soil

 

[RosettaStoned]

I think they are half gallon... Have them about half filled with soil

Why only half? Do you add more later on?

 

[budelight]

Nah. Why would you add more?

Looks good, do you rotate the plants by position or rotate the plants themselves? I'm pretty ignorant about vert growing?

 

[RosettaStoned]

I think it could increase yield, otherwise it's just empty space.

We are down to Two female plants. The White Jones who is loving the vertical lighting and some bagseed (1 of 4 - rest were male/runt) that is very sativa.

Lights are not on yet - does it shock the plants to open the cabinet to take photos?

How was everyone's 4/20? I'm just recuperating right in time for the weekend!

If I have plants in flowering, I don't do anything at all with them with the lights out...even small light leaks can cause hermies...of course, I've only read that and haven't experienced it for myself...

After thinking about what you said, it makes perfect logic to put more soil in the pots. Just learned an experienced California medical grower transplants 2 days before flipping to flower. Allows the plants to and just in healthy conditions before the flip. You can bet your bottom dollar that's what I'm doing next time

White Jones and the other plant both got pollinated today with two different pollens. One was Nirvana NL & the other was unknown. This is my first attempt at making seeds so will keep people updated on how it goes

Here is how they look, adding more soil was definitely the way to go.
