Are they going to outgrow my tent?

Random bag seeds, first week of flowering and I'm getting worried I waited too long to flip. The tallest is 51cm/20in from the top (not flush, but pretty close) and is about the same in height from base to top.
Do I need to throw the little ones out and start bending?
I wanted to at least keep the autoflower cause I no longer have a source and it will fill my bowl sooner or I can take all of them out of the grow tent and turn the closet they are into a tent.
Any suggestions? Do you think they will def. Outgrow my space?

You need more light or a flash, can't hardly see anything.

Yea, didn't realise how dark it was until I left the hs. I'll take another one this afternoon.

About a pound.

If that's how tall they were when they flipped they will probably outgrow your tent. Indica usually doubles in height and sativas can triple.
(except maybe the short one I think I see in there)

That's what I'm hoping for!

Well they were flipped Sunday...so through the week, I've seen so much growth already. That's why I started freaking out haha.

You need to read up on Low Stress training. You can control the height with training.

Then you might be okay, but I think it'll be close. If push comes to shove, just pull them out if smell is not an issue and put them someplace you can hang your light and add supplemental lighting

I have the space to start bending, but they will block the light for my small auto and I was excited about that one being finished a month before the others and providing me w some smoke to have while I wait on the other 2....but I may have to either pull that auto out or turn the entire closet into a grow tent to provide more height.

Yea, I figured if I have to just turn the entire closet into a grow tent...but it's so much more work hahaha

Nice! Good idea. I had to do that once and didnt even think of suggesting that. My closet was pretty easy to convert though. Just took out the bar and removed the shelf and had like 2-3 extra feet.

That's essentially what I need to do. But I'm not sure how to completely light proof it bc it has gaps at the hinges of the 2 doors.

And I'm sure light will leak through where the two doors meet

Now that would be a lot of work for sure. I was lucky enough that the closet was in an office type room I could just turn everything off and blackout the windows.

For my second closet I left one door on and took the other door off and replaced it with a plywood wall and cutout two 6 inch holes (one at the top and one at the bottom for an intake and outtake fan w/ducting). I could slide the other side open to access the plants and covered it with a reflective white and black poly I could unroll from the top when the plant is sleeping.

Looks like you have a similar closet. Just have to be careful when cutting the holes out. I used a Rigid holesaw and made sure to use vice grips to clamp the board down to a table so it would not move while making my cuts.

Thanks for the advice! Damn, sounds like so much work lmao. Here is to hoping they don't outgrow my tent! Haha

You can hang a dark curtin inside the closet doors and only open when lights are on. did that when I grew in my outbuilding, blacked out all windows and hung heavy black curtains over the insides of the doors.

I like that! Doesn't sound like as much work! If I do that, just need to think how I'm gunna set up my exhaust and intake.

They make the blackout curtains with white on one side to help with light reflection that you can hang on a slide rod on the inside of the closet doors you can push them to the side and go in and do what you have to. You can also tack them to the walls to give you more reflection and with also help insulate the closet... Hope this helps. Looking great!

Thanks for the suggestions!
