What would you do with these 3 Plants/Space?

Ok so my 2nd grow ever.
I’ve got 3 ladies in a 4x4, 1 big, 2 small. Day 4 from flip.
It’s (Chem D x Purple Punch)
The back left of the tent has a slim 400w heater. That’s why I went with 3 rather than 4 plants.

Last run I used a net & hated it. Made watering/maintenance a PITA.

So what would you do with this setup…
Bamboo stakes?
Plant YoYo’s?
Or just go with LITFA?

I would put some bamboo stakes in there now and train them when/if they need it. Just mind your eyes :eyes:

Ok cool @ReikoX I’m in 5gal canvas/fabric living soil pots. How would you go about placing them, like how far between the trunk of plant & the edge. And 1 per or 2 per plant? :+1: thanks!

And @LivingBlackSoil I will next run!

I would do two or three per pot. Place them at the edge between the fabric and the soil.

Package it all up, plants included, and ship to me. It will reduce your watering and maintenance pains to zero.

Stakes would be my suggestion

I’m right there with you… nets are a bit of a hindrance especially if you’d like to spin the plants to get a look/maintenance…

last run I used garden wire. once a branch got to heavy I just wired it into the main stem. or a single stake and some wire if the entire plant struggled to hold itself up.

Good looking clean setup. How are you feeding?

Oh it’s no pain at all. In fact, I love growing these plants so much it’s basically a singular obsession.

Someone commented the other day… “When I die I hope I can come back as one of your plants” :laughing:

@LivingBlackSoil Thanks, i treat it like a passion & keep it clean. Just one top-dress of 4-4-4 so far 12 days before I flipped. How often do you top dress, every 2 weeks? So in 2 days should I do it again (but with a 2-8-4 maybe).

Half and half veg and bloom and yes in 2 days. Any compost or worm castings? Bokashi?

Negative, should I get some castings to mix in? Like is it neccessary, trying to go easy on expenditures. No idea what Bokashi is yet. I’ve got “recharge” though.

Hoop, sticks, and zipties keep 'em in line.

or, you could get wire tomato cages in there now… do not procrastinate, when it’s too late, it’s too late!

Id train em sideways if this is all thats gonna be in there - scrog net, sticks, cage, benders, ties Whatever you like. Fill the area by going sideways then flip once 90% ish is covered.

Wrap a Piece of Tape around the end of each Bamboo Pole… @ReikoX was right in cautioning about Eye-Pokes.

As soon as you do it, you can’t Not see them. Safety freak here, true colours showing. And a little sun-setting from a couple years ago; Congo x 2 (Ace)
ps I did go to scrog on the next grow. this was the first grow that actually took off vertically. I just went with it.
