We don't know anything about your grow so...
What are you growing? Photo, auto???
If you are growing photo then you can prune the top of the plant and cut some height. You can also do some training. Since the plants are a bit old you will have to move slowly. Bend a branch a medium amount and wire it in place. Then a day or two later bend it some more. If you are growing auto's then I would not trim. I would just do LST and try to deal with really tall plants.
I use light to help control the size of my plants. During veg I will give more or less light to make the plant the height I want. It's not perfect and the strain still has a impact but you do have a fair bit of control. With more intense light the plant will grow shorter and have a smaller distance between nodes. Less light causes it to grow taller and with more space between nodes.

@GrowCN They are all Auto. 3 Amnesia haze, 1 lemonAK, 2 Exodus cheese.I'm thinking to transplant to give more soil and more space for the LST.All this stretching will impact on the final yields?

Topping or LST after 1st toppingLast week I topped this little baby, the plant now is growing ok. I noticed that not only the two top side branches are growing a lot, but that the ones on the node under it too.
I would like to make the 4 grow and like that I don't have to top more, is it ok? How can I do it?

1st go at scrog. Any particular way to LST you guys can recommend?Hi folks.
First time going for scrog, ladies on day 18 with interesting node spacing.
When do you guys reckon i should start with lst in preparation for them approaching the net? Also, where is the best starting point for that, so i just bend the main stem sideways and tie it?

Please help with LST on Seedsman Auto LemonShe grows very squat and bushy. 3 weeks and only 13cm high. Big fan leaves cover many branches and grow nodes completely. Not sure what to do with her. Is it a good idea to bend the main stem 90 degrees? Or just tie the side branches to the edges of the pot + make defoliation?

What are my chances of a cutting that was only meant to be stretched with LST, string surviving without any root products. Its placed directly into a grow cube, with water and then the mini greenhouse. I have a perfect LED grow light gently willing it on. WILL IT SURVIVE???

Small/compact plants, light intensity? Genetics? FC-E 3000 50% 24” lamp to plant, 2 weeks old, fastbuds and ganja farmer seedsSince upgrading to my FC-E 3000 I’ve noticed that my plants seem to be more stumpy/compact. I’m just curious if I have my light intensity turned up to high causing them to be short with little space between nodes the way a weak light causes your plant to stretch?Plant. Spaces between nodes
