Would suck if you have to chop those huge colas off. I would try to give the LST away from the light if possible. Either way looking good, this is an auto-flower? what hours is it on? they should stop stretching their third week in flower?

If your plant is not showing bloom signs, then chop it, it's not blooming. If your plant is blooming, even if little tiny white hairs, then LST and bend the main stem so it's the desired height. Keep on the great care! Happy smokes!

Plant stakes for heavy branches???Do you add structural support to branches before they form buds? People have warned me to add structure to my plant ASAP. I don't see a lot of photos of plants with stakes. My plant is really tall & I didn't train it because I was scared to break it & horizontal space limited.

Hight Problems I’ve got 3 plants in my tent, but they’re all different heights. To compensate, I’ve hung my light at an angle, so one end is closer to the smaller plants. My question is: Does this help, or am I better off keeping the light level? Any tips for dealing with uneven plant heights?

Too close to the “sun”(light).... any advice?My plant grew close to 4x it’s original size during her stretch, 10-12” on day one of 12/12 to 46” tall. She’s on day 30 of flower and I set up a second ScrOG net. Other than blocking light to shorter plants, do you see any other potential problems this second net might cause?

Size matters??After one week the Cheese and the LSD got pretty fast to 3-4cm in height where as the big bang, which started developping its first node and the second one is still very short. This has to do with the pot size, the genetics or both?
