LST or Super Crop?

[WizHigh]

OK, heres the thing my plant is growing out of control and its short and bushy. Theres not enough light getting to the inside of the plant. The stock is extra thick and I was thinking of supper cropping but fear of snapping the stem all the way off. So I lean more towards LST. I just topped it 3 days ago and 2 new shoots are starting to come up and I think theres a third one also. Im using T5 54w 4bulb since its only in its third week of veg. The fan leaves are huge and falling to the side not really perky as I thought they should be. I tucked some of the leaves but I dont know how effective that is. Im upgrading to MH 400w this week. Can some one give me pointers on what I should to as to Super Cropping or LST? Thanks!!!!!

I would just wait till you get your 400w set up and see how it does then. Since what it is under now is just a temporary situation. I would wait to do any serious modifications until it is into it's new environment. The difference in light is going to make a huge difference.

I was thinking that also. There already in 3L pots and I noticed that when plants become root bound there leaves tend to drop a little. And I think the same is happening with these ones. Bout time I get the 400w I think there going to explode even more. I feel like there starving for more light. I added 5 100w CFLs and still isnt enough. I was thinking about putting tape on the fan leaves until further notice. Really cant do anything else until my 400w lamp is delivered.
