Plants too tall
Dingle_Danglestarted grow question 3d ago
The ladies are exaggerating and the veg season is going to last at least 1 more month or more. I keep doing HST but it's not enough. Even on multiple branches. Even stopped feeding. Any suggestions?
Can't LST due to strong wind during storms.

why is being tall an issue anyways, you are growing outdoors and not autos, of course they are going to get tall

Bamboo canes and spread her out and loosely tie side branches to the canes and try and run them up the canes. Make sure you spread her out as much as you can.

Hey growmie just top her. She is healthy, branching like mad, and clearly still got veg time ahead. no harm done.
you’ll slow her vertical stretch, trigger more side growth, and keep her a bit more manageable without relying on LST during storm season.
After topping, you can try supercrop or stake jer to keep the new tops wider, works even if wind is a factor. 🌿💪

Las plántulas se estiran buscando luzTengo una lampara QB LED de 50W a 30 cm de altura, pero las plantulas de los laterales del cultivo se estiran buscando la luz
¿Acerco más la lampara? ¿Las botellas de agua están disminuyendo el PPFD?
Fabricante indica a 55 cm para esta fase

How long into the flowering phase do plants stop stretching?Title says it all! This plant is already so much taller than either of the plants I grew the first time around. I still have some room in my tent to accommodate a little bit more height - just not THAT much more.
Which week of flower will do plants typically stop stretching?Week 6

What can i do now to keep my plants down?So they grow about 9 cm over night 😲 I'm starting to worry,
that they will get out of control with stretching (Landrace strain).
What can i do now to keep them down. Can I top them now in flowering stage?
Continue with LST? More light?

How to manage a tall plant with a thick stem in week 1 of flowering?One plant I ordered online was pre-grown. Now, it’s about 20 cm taller than my other plants. At the top, the taller plant gets more than 1000 PPFD, while the lower canopy gets about 500 PPFD. It’s currently week 1 of flowering. The stem is too thick to bend down.What would youdo?
