@@GreenGrows, thanks for taking time to check out my grow diary, I learned a lot growing this strain. I am believing you are saying your tent is only 4 feet tall? If so...yeah, you are going to be in a pickle if you do not train them. My mature veg/ flowering tents are pretty tall. 70 and 80 something inches. Now I had some room and I did some low stress training and then I used a net to make a line i wanted to keep my plants at, I let the plants grow 10 inches past that, recommended by ILGMJ website, then pinched and bent them over. And i hear its best to do that in big groups or all at once so the plant can heal, same with trimming leaves. You can see i should have done better at that but i am learning.
During flowering you can expect plants to double, maybe triple depending on a few factors like lights, nutrients. But i would do my best to veg your plants and get as short node distance as you can, you can control this somewhat by keeping light as close as plant likes it, i found mine liked a little distance. And like you said, training. One think i also read is if these plants run out of space vertically or horizontally, they slow down their growth on their own. Not sure if that's true, but some fish do, so maybe lol.
