I was scared with moderate defoliation last time too but it worked out.

The tiny pot with coco on the near right is going untrained. Just to see.

I am mad at myself for snapping several flower heads while reaching in. ....tried tape but ultimately had to cut the branches off a few hours later. Lost dozens of bud sites.

Looks good. Don't be afraid to cut off some leaves. I typically chop all inward facing fan leaves and and big leaves that block lower bud site that I can't keep tucked. It doesn't seam to phase them.

My tent is 3x3 and the light chassis is maybe 24"

I am toying with the idea of adding a reptile UVB lamp and mounting the tube vertically in the empty corner.

Alternatively I could get a compact CFL and place it closer.

I keep reading about new mercury vapor lamps burning out so I will avoid those.

Thoughts? Experiences?

I took off a huge pile of leaves...more? Really? (said while shaking at knees)

I tried self deprecating humor
....But...
I wasn't very good at it.

I deserve at least 2 more for being a klutz in the tent.

I have a similar setup, HLG 300R and I bought a UVB light bar and just tilt it towards the plants. You can see it on at the top of the photo.

I never over think things. Really.

Yours was the first configuration that I thought of but maybe a bit too close to some of the plants...
