Well hopefully some are male, you can yank them. As for the tall ones, listen to tussel tie them down if you can. I would say prune them but not since they are in 12/12 lighting at the moment...

Hey could be worse, you have a good problem....lol:mrgreen:

Yes bend them but gently since they are old, tie some string to them and slowly day after day tigthen just a little...BE CAREFUL, no shit, right? Pray for some males 123puff. Like I said earlier that's a good problem you are having...lol.

And yes I think you can use multi spec cfls to flower...plants like all kinds of light

Like bend them??? Do multi-spect cfls work on growing?
tie a string about 3" from the top and pull it down slowly don't go to far as to break em but you can usually get em bent down so the stem is horizontal maybe more. it also makes for great bud growth, all the would be popcorn nugs grow like little colas and its oh so sweet

When training plants by bending it is best to stake the plants first by securing stakes firmly to the outside of the bucket so they won't move, then start tying them down like others have said. Be careful not to kink the stem, but when you do, don't try to straighten them as this kills the upper part. You usually only get one chance with a kink, just secure the upper part without bending it up and down as you do it. You'll be surprised how the stem swells at the kink and gets real tough. You cannot pinch the tops any closer than 3-4 weeks of lowering the light hours or you will stunt the plant and any buds that would have grown
