I’m down to just a few inches between my light and the bud sites. I have about 5 inches of room to raise the light before its touching the top of the tent. It’s a Mars Hydro ts600 led that doesn’t really get hot on the top side. What do you guys do if you run out of height? I’m in the middle of week 2 of flower. I thought the stretching would be over by now.

I’ve had that same problem. Right now all you can do is bend tops and tie them down. Try sculpting your canopy to spread out. If you can turn down the intensity of your lights. Depending on the light and distance try moving tops away from the middle of your canopy.

Id put in a trellis net and start supercropping or LST. Hopefully the netting can keep them down with some other training methods

Did some super cropping last night, as advised. I’ve read various things about after care. Tape on the bend, honey on the bend, bend it and just leave, etc. The bends did turn a brown color. The tops sites have already turned back towards the light. I appreciate all of the feedback thus far! Processing: 20211221_045739.jpg…
