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!

Height Difference when growing different strains in one tentIm afraid my Gorilla will outgrow the Lemon Cherry significantly in height, will that be a big problem? or will the lemon cherry maybe catch up a bit in full flower so the difference in light intensity wont be that big? both same age.

Oh no! I didn't give them the proper light power and they stretched too much!The girls are already in their final containers and they are only 1 week old. Any tips what should I do to fix this issue and avoid stressing them out while I do it?
Perhaps I should just use a guide? Add more soil? (it's already near to the top tho) or should just ignore it?

sehr unterschiedliches WachstumDie Rechte hört nicht auf in die Höhe zu wachsen mehrere Zentimeter täglich! Sie ist mittlerweile über 70 Zentimeter hoch und langsam kann ich die Lampe nicht mehr höher hängen. Die Linke hingegen wächst fast garnicht mehr und sieht auch etwas traurig aus. Beide gleich alt.

Plants too tall in back row.The plant's in the back row are too tall.
We cut the tops of the trellis boxes off about 18 inches.
Even with LST I still think they're too tall.
With the plants in pre-flowering (10 days)
should we cut the top of the plants off or is this a bad choice?
What do you recommend?Week 14

Harvest in 2 times, seeking advice, top big branch/buds first and then lowerNow 7 days from harvest. 3 plants with cloudy tricomes, no spottted ambar it's fine.
Is necessary to harvest in 2 times? Give a week more for the bottom "popcorn" buds and the third plant, shorter in shadow?
Should I cut whole largest branches entirely, or cut all at same height

Keep it small.I'm starting to think about training her, because I'm very limited in height.
My goal is more than 40g dry weight in the shortest possible time. (<14 weeks)
The plant before I had fimed, no idea how exactly to proceed this time,
is moving to 12-12 soon a good option?Week 2

Should the first tiny node be removed?Hi guys! So this is a fb auto day 22. I was not planning to stress train her in any way. Could you please advise is this first node should be removed or kept? It looks unusually small to me and I wanted to remove it but I've never removed anything so early. Thank you, growmies!

Hight ProblemsI’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?
