    Default Running out of space. Fast!!

    Hi all, i have a 60x60x120 tent!
    Running a dwc
    I veged for 5 weeks then flipped.
    But 3 weeks into flower it has got huge!
    I mean having to tie it up all over!
    I have possibly got another 3" higher to pull the shade up then its going to foul on my carbon filter!
    So i can either.
    A, take out the filter and blow through
    B, just keep tieing back!

    Its a monster, starting to wish i have just gone into 12/12 from the start!
    Any other ideas????

    120 isn't a huge amount of space, especially with the filter in the tent...

    A combination of both your A&B ideas sounds the way forward

    No lol i was scared off by a 400w so ended up with a 250w switchable.
    The 400w took it to 39° on a coldish day.
    It was too hot.
    Stuck with a 250w and vegged to arse off it!
    Hindsight, i shouldnt

    Never lose sight that a 250w HPS has a holy grail of 250g dry bud... most people will struggle to achieve that

    I'm not bothered about yeild on this one tbh
    Its my first grow for 6 years so getting back into it.
    As soon as im a little more confident another couple of grows i will look at maximising the yeild untill then keeping her alive is a bonus lol

    Ah! The reason I mentioned about yield was to do with how far you veg your plants mate... no point of vegging for months & months if the light won't allow bigger yields...
