Hi Everyone.

Height is now becoming a concern. Some of my plants are approaching 4 ft. I guess I can't complain. hehe

I'm on day #17 flower. My plants have been growing at about 1/2 - 1in a day.
I have about 1ft - 1.5 ft left of wiggle room. At this rate my plants will exceed my height limit.
What can I do?

Thanks!!:leaf:

Thinking they should be slowing down now? Bend the stems and trim shit off?

Ya they should be slowing down a bit because more energy is concentrated on the bud production. Is tying and bending the top colas ok? I don't want to trim off anything off the top...

Not the top, lower down after you bend the tops over - lower stuff might not be worth the trouble as might be shaded from the bent colars?

Yea you can lst with no stress.just tie down the tall ones to keep low.like 3-4 weeks into flower you will notice the branches are harder and more sturdy.so get them low now before branches get strong.good luck :)

this is good advice, i am two weeks into flower and i let a few branches get too strng and now they cant be tied down without doing damage, so im forced to supercrop which isnt ideal this far along.

depends on the branch. My strongest beefiest branches are not going to bend for me without some serious pressure which will stress them.
