As I slowly move from 1 grow to the next, I am learning things each time. Even as a self made horticulturalist for 50 yrs, I’m still learning how to grow and am very excited trying new things /ideas, after reading people’s post’s! Can’t thank you all enough for sharing & caring so much! I am so glad I joined the forum and website! I usually don’t do post’s, social media etc… bit I’d be lost without you guys! @ShockDog I absolutely loved your post to newer growers in panic mode. I, like some, spent a year reading here, prior to posting. And while I LOVE trying new things, experimenting,I do NOT have $ to waste,but I’m not going to blindly do something & then freak out begging for help on something that could’ve been avoided! I owe ILGM AND ALL OF YOU, A HUGE THANKS FOR BEING HERE!!

I’m still learning… Guessing I keep my lights too close?? That’s why they stay squatty fat bushes?? Mine never reach for the sky like I see others do… I must be missing some pages here on growing, topping, sog… I’m not at all unhappy with what I’ve learned,but, just wanna be like the big dogs! LOL
I did find a plastic, snap together, cheapy kind of trellis on Temu, but, I’ll bide my time & see what happens Thx again for a great idea!
Beautiful 
See? I don’t get it… my plants at maturity are only a few inches above fabric pot, granted, I do bend them over pretty far, but still… I must be complaining about something I should enjoy, huh? I’ll find a pic, from last couple days and post Thanks for making me smile… A lot of really good things come in small packages!! Hehehe
And don’t laugh at how I stretched NL on left side Yep, it’s part of a wire put together shelf system & works great! I did it to AH also, but when she grew faster & fuller, I removed it… Now, I’m in desperate need of trimming etc… not lazy, just not doing real well lately March kicked my butt… anywho
Here is a couple more pics, just cuz…
Looking down at her… this camera sux, sorry…

Here’s Runt! In a spice pot LOL I’ll transplant if needed,but thinking it may mature early and just be a quick turnaround… we shall see!
I was replying to you, but the system didn’t tag ya! Sorry, hopefully you’ll see… either way, have a great evening! Thx for dropping by & commenting

For sure man!! I’m all about utilizing resources in anyway that will function properly 
I had to cuty biggest bud on Northern Lights out of the metal ‘frame’ shelf part, so the lower buds could get some love 
from the lights
After reading on other people’s room set ups, like @GreggT (<-- ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR ROOM!!), I’m giving thought to moving everything from my 3rd bedroom/office, to the walk-in closet of my bedroom… already have 2 more lights and a roll of mylar Now if I could just get my hands to cooperate 
Wish I had let the electrician install the exhaust fan and new outlet… but, I’ll manage Not like I’m going to overload with what I do
Wishing everyone a spectacular day!!

@ChittyChittyBangin meant to say that 5ft of space is rocking! Wish I could grow 5-6planys at a time… could grow for a bit and take some time off, give the lights a little reprieve Very nice! Healthy plants… I know the post is older, but still lol HAGD!!

I built my entire grow area out of cardboard and duct tape and aluminum foil. Its not completely light proof. But that’s ok…helps with ventilation. And is definitely serving its purpose…
