    Get those LED's right up close to your plants. It might be easier for you to do this by stacking books or something and putting your plants on top

    Thanks for the help guys! What about topping? How do I know when I can Top the plant? and should I Top and LSt to keep them short and bushy?

    personally i perfer just lst ing.....

    topping does make more tops but you slow the growth for a bit when you pinch the top..
    but with lst you are simply manipulating the branches by bending them down allowing all the smaller inner growth to become tops.

    a plant will spend more time repairing a broken top, then to adjusting to branches being altered.
