Too much stretch?

Showmethewaytogrowhomestarted grow question 3 years ago

I’m 4 days into week 5, which is week 2 of flowering. My RQS fat banana autos are 40-50cms in height. That’s too much right? That stretch could make for a poor yield. Should I be worried and, if so, how do I slow the stretch? Indoor, hps, 18/6, 26* high, 16* low, 50% RH.

As long as they don't grow into the light, it looks normal. Just be sure to support the branches as the buds seriously get heavy enough to bend and sometimes snap them.

Harvest in 2 times, seeking advice, top big branch/buds first and then lower Now 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

Plant too big for growbox Long story short, I overshot my container size, and now I have plant that is outgrowing my box. I cannot move it, so the only options are to manage the growth or kill it. Any tips that would help me keep the size down and bring this plant to successful harvest would be great.

Do I need to cover the stem with soil up to the first leaves?Do I need to get my plant in the soil up to the first two leaves? Is this important? In that case i’ll try to cut a bottle and fill it up to the first two leaves.

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?

Topping during Flowering: good or bad?Does topping “fast growing” colas during flowering (for light purposes) help or hinder flower dev and/or harvest? Or should I sacrifice tallest ones to possible bleaching? Canopy was level before flower, but a few colas took off, creating uneven SoG (6" diff)

Long and Spindly girl Bubbles is stretching quite far. Long and spindly. This isn't good as she can't hold her head up anymore. I've lowered the grow light and also have the light going 19 on and 5 off for the grow day. What can I do to help her out at this point?
