    How to make plant bush out?

    New grower here. I have a Girl Scout Cookie plant that just wants to grow straight up and doesn't bush out. How do I get it to bush out?

    Not enough light is what makes a plant like that in my opinion.
    Just because people are over 50 doesn’t mean they know everything.
    You can teach a old dog new tricks - But it will still think the old ways are the “best” lol

      Howdy MarkK, My first two grows were the same way, tall and no bush! I added aluminum foil to the walls of My grow room (converted closet). It had white paint on the walls and I had read that that was sufficient for growing. Before the third grow, I added aluminum foil to the walls with plain old thumb tacks and wow! did it ever make a difference! Bouncing back all of the light towards the plants really made them bush out. I had also read that the foil could create 'hot' spots, but that never materialized and there has not been any damage to the plants at all. I could not tell what Your walls are made from or what type of lamp it is that You are using, but the addition of the foil is cheap, easy, and can be readily removed if needed.
      Good luck with Your growing.

        Not enuf light, nor soil or info, feeding something with a high center number (NPK) could help produce more nodes to make it bush out assuming its short on it.

          Agree with lightning and topping when it's grown out to at least four nodes or even six. Need a better enviornment to get a good harvest.

            This one is not going to get very bushy at this point. Next grow, as mentioned above, adequate light, 3-5 gallon container, provide LST early and often and lose the Miracle Gro products I see on the right and left of the plant. They may be causing your leaf damage. Is that a clone?

              I think that light is your problem and that it’s not going to get bushy at this point either. This is always a learning experience no matter how long you have grown there’s always something to learn in this hobby.
