Indoor Keeping It Small and Simple

Can you just tie her to the side and lightly bend the top? Should get you a couple more inches

I thought about this and I like this in theory. In practice, however, I am concerned that it might pull the rest of the plant over with it unless I tied off the bottom side of the plant to the opposite side of the tent. This might snap the stem or supercrop it anyway.

So what I was thinking was that I would pinch the stem and bend it over less than 90 degrees...maybe something like 45 degrees or so. I also would not tie it down. The buds and branch will grow back toward the light and put a natural swerve into the branch. In theory.

To be honest, I usually don’t have any idea what I’m doing most of the time...just educated guesswork.

Ok. Quick check of the official records says that today is Day 66 for the 2x2.5 tent.

The Colorado Cookies is developing what appears to be light burn on the fans of the main cola. I should have supercropped her but I let her go. She’s about 8 to 10 inches from the light. I may change my mind and do it anyway. We’ll see.

Yep. I had to the down most the tops on my pineapple express this time. Out grew my setup. They are 10 days into flower. Didn't bother them a bit. Just bend the soft tissue, not the woody stuff, trust me. I almost wanted to cry lol.

Day 70 in the 2x2.5 tent. The Colorado Cookies is chugging right along. On Day 68, I pinched and bent her main stem over and leaned her against the back of the tent. She seems to have taken it in stride. No ill effects can be seen just yet. She’s stacking buds just fine and aside from what I believe was light burn on the fans of her main stem, I don’t see anything untoward going on.

Sometimes a lady just goes wild. FULL TENT. Sweet to see it.

Wall to wall bud from a pot that size, that's some mastery going on over there

I swear I didn’t do anything special. You gotta believe me. It’s just dumb luck. Honestly

It really is just luck. I open the tent every day amazed at what’s happening.

Thank you, @St. Tom. I appreciate the rep again. You’re too kind.

Day 77 (yesterday) in the 2x2.5 tent. Well...the Colorado Cookies is still alive. Still going. Not done yet. She’s still throwing white pistils out. The trichomes are mostly cloudy with still quite a number being clear. We’ll see how much longer she has. One of the side colas seems to be taking over as the dominant cola. I can’t really get a good look at the formerly main cola as its in the back of the tent. Mental note to self: next time bend it over where I can see it better.
