I have been growing for years now until i had to start out fresh, got some N lights seeds from England.
When they were 800cm high i switched from 18 to 12 cycle and now they are stretching out of control, what have i done wrong.
Can someone please help

What you did wrong was letting them get 8 meters high before switching to 12/12! But I gotta be honest, it's hard to believe you've got an 8 meter tall plant growing somewhere in your house. Do you got it wrapped around the room a few times?

did you mean 80cm...i think thats what they meant...anyhow not sure what went wrong but if they are stretching like crazy you can tie em down by gently bending the top of the plants sideways...gradually the plant will adjust and u can continure to tie the top down about another inch (few cm.) further each day by pulling the string a little futher under the pot...will cause the plant to bush out tremendously and that top cola u tie down will get pretty big

Even though I imagine it was a typo, he did say 800cm, which IS 8 meters. So don't go around calling people dumb.

lol, big difference

plants will stretch two to three times their preflowering hieght. stretch is normal in flower.

LMAO :S2:

800 cm = 8 meters = 26.25 feet! LOL Talk about cannabis trees. :)

Hey, remesh. That is normal. Unfortunately, I think some NL crosses...mostly the #5, I think are big stretchers in flower. They will go 3 times their height...even from clone. Compensate accordingly (i.e. putting them in the back, etc.). G'luck, man! Start a log! :)
