Help me week 5 flower first grow plants too close light l wanna get a second opinion

[BeatManGG4]

My plants are in week 5. I haven't eveer tried to grow for real and they turning out pretty nice. I went on Vacation for a week or so and came home to my plants touching light. I have two 1000 watt led 70$ lights from amazon. I was able tpo move them over and lights up some, but I don't know if its gonna be more trouble, what to look for, when these will be ready to harvest, etc. Any opinions or advice greatly appreciated.

Hello and welcome to Since they r so far along in flower, I imagine they just finished stretching so they shouldn’t grow up any more

Hi BeatMan,

Welcome to

 

[BeatManGG4]

Thanks glad to be here 013. And stormblessed, do you think that the light is gonna hurt them being so close now? One is about 6" from closet cola and other like 8. They seem ok so far, but I don't wanna burn them. Thanks again for advice...

It being a not super powerful led I think u should b good, but u could try to tuck it some where or super crop it a little

 

[Stormblessed]

I imagine they r 1000w equivalents right?

 

[BeatManGG4]

I think idk. I'll take a pic real quick

Haven't used any nuts cause I didn't know how lol and kinda just started learning cultivation a few months ago. Been a smoker 25 yrs

 

[BeatManGG4]

Also, while I'm at it, I need to get some good decent prices seeds to start germinating for next go round.

 

[BeatManGG4]

Oh and used blue and red through veg and red only in flower. Lol. I know that's prolly not right but it's been like 5 weeks in flower. Scared to turn both blue and red on. Or will that be ok?

 

[Stormblessed]

I think both will b good, and yeah the lights r between 120-130 real wats so u could use the extra power from using both spectrums

 

[BeatManGG4]

ok thank you. I really appreciate the help! I'll get better lights for next grow I guess lol

 

[Stormblessed]

What size is ur tent?

You have you a couple of WILD Sativa(s) there, it looks like you have room(3x3?)) to spread the branches wider by typing them down to anchor points. Be careful the stems/branches are tougher(woodsy instead of flexible) in this stage, GO slow. I've had this happen to me before, having outdoor plants that were suppose to go in the ground, plans change and straight to the 2x4 tent. Long story short, one of the plants was literally a half to three quarters of an inch away from a Mars light and only had slight bleaching and the bud was HUGE. I still have the cola actually. Anyway, get that left plants top trained up at least and get it under the light instead of on the side. In my situation, I had to Zip tie the light straight to the top tent pole for a few more inches of room. Get creative, that being said... your plants look frosty. Good Luck.

Thanks Johnnie! Yea the stems are super stiff. I had one bend on me already. The one that's leaning into the right one so bad from the left plant. It didn't break so I guess its still ok. I been nervous to do to much bending. I'm going to use the Sea of green method for the next round. Anyways, thanks again for help and I'll keep updated. Going to work on rearranging today...

 

[JohnnieJC3]

Go slow, they will bend, focus on the top 4-6 inches of the plant, more than likely the whole branch won't move much to help. Bending is fine it won't hurt the plant, just don't go to far and snap it. You will feel the tension on the branch trust me.

Ok thx. I'll update with pics in a few days
