Ok they have been flowering now for two weeks very little flowers but enough to know all girls and over 3ft. high and still growing . Should I start chopping their tops off to keep away from HPS?

Hi , how big is your light HPS. The only reason I ask is because lower than 1000 and they will grow into light and burn. There for they will top therirselves, no choice. If you go back not too far you will find my REDHAIR ladies. One did this in a 400 watt light, I got a 1000 then my bro got the 400 back. It was like super cropping. That plant took a month extra but I got 8 OZ's off it. bend the plants down, tie them down you can make SSSS shapes if you don't want a screen for scrog. Don't start chopping unless you can go the extra time. Bending and tieing are better. Just keep the light as close as you can.
LST it, may be the only way, but its not a good idea to be chopping the tops!
Is it just getting to high for the grow room?
If thats the case, then you should have concidered this, and flowered it early, as they double in size while flowering.
LIP bubbles is hilarious, I almost puked a tequila shot in his face. I chose his bodyguard instead, it made for some good free drinks and a good laugh.
But as to the problem at hand, i recently added some different nutes, and got incredible growth, i use an aeroponic system. I had to do the unthinkable,(i will need to move asap, i made too much noise) i let some relatively trusted people in on my secret because i needed help to lower my table almost a foot. Be very careful. I am blessed with great friends. And if you are using a table, you will need stong individuals to help lift, or get some jack stands raise the table and cut the legs down, if you do it yourself, don't be mad if drop your table. I tried to do it myself, it started to fall. I had to call a friend to lift it for me, i had my cell in my pocket. So this is not the ideal method, it may be the only feasable method, i do not have room between my pvc pipes to bend them or tie it down. I just try to grow tiny bushes.
I hope this opens doors for you. But please be careful, like I said the idea is just as bad as it is good.
Are you sure you can't bend them over? Cutting them at this point is a very bad idea.
Bend them...if you can't do that. Rub the stem inbetween your fingers about 1 foot down the cola. Sqeeze and rub it till it starts to coolapse on itself.Don't break it in half! Just sweeeze it until it falls gently.It will heal and continue to grow.:thumbsup:
Pics first for informed feedback. Use multiple angles. Best case scenario, you can just tie it down, but pics are a must for the best advice.
Ok I have bent over them slightly 30 degrees or so. just enough to keep them out of the light. I started to flower at 12" these must have a lot of sative in them. What other products should I put in with 3 part genral, superthrive and overdrive? I'm afraid the same fate awaits these as my first grow when they got so tall that the flowers small and underdeveloped. So, I want something to up the resin and flower production. Big bud or Bud Blood is what I was thinking.
