Your local hydro shop probably won't have slow release fertilizers because they are not hydro nutes. They are meant for soil. Any greenhouse or nursery or hardware store should still have them somewhere. And if you do decide to stick with slow release nutes, only use those, not those and hydro nutes (way too much).
As far as guessing how much more stretch is going to happen, I don't know...how old are they?

TNX for all your help!
I germed them in the beginning of april, but april to may they were real neglected just kinda hung out on a window sill got real leggy w/ only 3 tiers. at the top and a big stringy stalk. Then they went out in the beginning of may.
The description from the place I picked the strain up says Short - Medium height but they are far larger & taller then the Norther Lights I have out. That were started around the same time. I think the light in their plot is a little better then the NL, but only a little and they are twice the size.
The NL are only 2 foot "but they were topped by deer". These are 6. Have you had any experience w/ NL?
My local hydro shop carries all the high end soil stuff too, guanno, fish emultion etc. So they may have the slow release.
I have not had any experience with NL, however, I don't think they will get much taller...less light = more stretch and less bud however. The plant tries to stretch to an area where it can get more sunlight.
Peace,
