Lighting DP Auto Ultimate under GN HS1 (60 x 60 diffuser)

Day 30

She's developing into a bushy beast. Not much vertical growth since last update, probably 5cm or so. I still can't get over how huge these fan leaves are. I've been keeping the light 50cm above the main growth tip. Maybe the plant senses it's in a confined space and this is having an influence on its shape. Ideal for me really. I've done no LST at all, probably left it a bit late now anyway, but this is exciting stuff. I can't wait to see how she develops into the flowering phase. She's drinking nearly a litre a day now so a hungry 'ol bird!

Indeed. The plant has actually taken on a square shape when viewed from above. I'm unsure at this stage what effect being confined in a tent resembling a phonebox will have on its final shape. I'm both intrigued and apprehensive in equal measures. I don't think outright height will be an issue, but what may prove a problem are when the side branches start packing on weight and succumbing to gravity. I'm going to need to do some major rigging work to prevent them leaning against the tent walls!

Any advice or suggestions most welcome, aside from getting a bigger tent.

Fun times ahead. :D
