My plants are going to be too tall. Help?

SoOrbudgal Thanks! I didn’t train mine this time and regret it. Faster turnaround but yield and quality seem to have suffered

Super crop results

Yeah that looks pretty sweet

This is exactly what happened on my tumble weed, I truly believe it added more weight

I'v only done LST for my first two indoor grows, just tie/loosen /adjust them through veg, and keep a flat table top..all the flower tips are the same distance from the light.(really important if your height restricted!)
This way, all your main colas make about the same size bud.

Previously you and I were talking about target yields. Now I can see why you’re reaching yours. Beautiful.

Although height was not an issue for me I still did some training. bending and now there are way more flowers. Remember since your indoor lights are in a fixed position, the light only reaches the top of the plant. Unlike the sun where it moves and allows more light all over the plant (assuming you have it in the right spot in a garden or yard).
You should start training/bending at the first signs of flowering...I started at week 4 and the amount of glowers has likely doubled

Where on the stems are you bending once flowering starts. My stems are pretty woody almost all the way to the top already.

Thank you all for the killer advice! I just pruned them and they’re 22-24” tall. I think I’ll get some 4” disposable trellis/scrog netting and zip tie it to the horizontal bars. Then keep the plant under it and spread out. The plants are putting out a bunch of main stems now which I’m assuming will all be colas.

I broke my knee today so I can’t get down to tie them down or trellis/scrog. About the most I can do is water them. Fingers crossed that they don’t get too tall. The stems are already so woody that I’m not sure I could bend them anyway.

Oh, that's not good. Hope you get better soon.

Was sprinting with my dog and slipped. A race I never would have won.
