why so bushy

Discussion in 'The Great Indoors' started by big bud boy, Jan 19, 2017.

  1. is northern lights autos supposed to get bushy. there 5 and half weeks old
     
  2. Nothing like a big bush.
     
  3. Any recommendations to give.
     
  4. If you really decided you need to you could tie some of the upper fan leaves to expose more bud sites to light, scrog would work too.

    It's really not necessary tho...They look great.
     
  5. OK I just started using Fox farm big bloom. I have 1 gorilla glue and that's got a lot of bud starting but the lights not as much any is that? IMG_20170118_180737.jpg IMG_20170118_180731.jpg
     
  6. Different strains take longer to start forming bud sites, and to flower in general.

    What's your temp and humidity?
     
  7. 75 f and 30 percent humidity
     
  8. I don't have experience growing autos or either of those strains.. but your leaves look heat stressed don't they?
     
  9. So raise up my light to how high!!
     
  10. 1000 watt HPS is my light
     
  11. My NL autos are always bushy so i'd say its normal. I think autos are always bushy in general though cuz they stay pretty small.
     
  12. In general I think 2 feet from canopy for 1000w HPS? It varies slightly based on brand of bulb so hold your hand right above canopy for 30 seconds, if it's too hot raise it. What are they at currently?
     
  13. 15-18 inches
     
  14. Could raise it to around 22 and see if that helps the tacoing.
     
  15. He means things like topping and cutting off fan leaves, and that's true, they don't like being cut :)
