Evening growers. I have a sativa super lemon haze from canuck. Its growing well. Maybe going to be too tall for for my greenhouse. Still in veg. Any tips or threads folks can suggest about managing the height of the plant would be much appreciated. thanks
 
Tie that bitch down!

No I'm talking about AOC :biggrin:.

My tent isn't that tall it's kinda of the shape of the roof and if my girls stretch under the seedling light, which they usually do I am working on my lst technique.

On one my plants now, the main cola was near the light and I used pipe cleaners and bent it over and get it away from the light. It seems to have worked better than I hoped. The buds are now all pretty even and looking good. I'm at 40+ days.

Thanks but how do I tie it down and from what spot?
 
I use pipe cleaners. Connect as many as you need and tie the off on the side of your pot or grow bag. Just be careful that you don't break it.
The one I just tied down, I put my pipe cleaner low enough on the branch/branches but not too low and gently bend the stem, stalk or cola until it's at the desired height. Just go slowly and don't put too much strain on what your bending.
 
PS. it's always better to start this process early so it doesn't stress the plant too much, but my luck is usually that I have some colas that take off and I have to do something to keep them from getting burnt. It seems to have worked well in the past.
