    Really!! That thing is gonna be tapping on the ceiling at that rate. Personally I'd pinch and bend those tops over. Not really sure what the proper term is but what I do is on the tallest top come down 3 to 4 nodes and give it a solid pinch. It will flatten out, then bend it over 90% or a little more. In a couple days it will heal and turn upwards. Then after the last one healed do the next highest one as needed. The lower limbs will shoot up to catch the top of the plant. Looks great dude!!!

    Nippie I have a second Lowe's bucket with the air line attached... All I do is fill the second bucket with fresh nutes... Then lift the plant off the exsisting bucket and set it on the new bucket.... Very simple... Then u clean the bucket with previous weeks nutrients so it will be ready fir next res change...

    you may consider stakes in the coming weeks, hot glue them to top of you lid. I remember those dame things trying to fall over on me trying to move them. then again that was the one grow I was least proud of, so many issues I was having


    looks great though

    Actually that's where the vacuum lives.... My only closet is being used for growing. I knew the Silver LA was stretchy... But this thing went nuts... Takes up almost half my cabinet by itself.... Ughhh

    DWC is the balls. The growth rate is fantastic compared to soil. Those tops are going to swell up nice!! Good job. :thumbsup:
