Blood, Sweat and double C22 with 1K
OK, I may have a problem, I think that my ladies may out grow my cab before flowering is over. Right now they are about 20 in and on their 5th day of flower, 36 days from seed, indika dominate strains with a 55, 60 day flower time. They only have about 20in of grow room left giving enough clearance for light not included in the 20in, with that I have about 30in all together. 2 thoughts to possibly control the situation. 1. I was going to move them from the 2g pots into 3g pots because the roots look like they will be bound in about another month or less and I am thinking that if I just leave them that it will slow down vertical growth, but I don't want to significantly ruin bud production with any root bound issues.
2. I was thinking about doing a little light bondage/LST, but I am not sure how this will work out since they are already in flower.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Adieu

Heh, I had that happen last grow. I veg'd my plants too long (out of necessity, had to leave town and didn't want them flowering until I got back). They got too big, then in flowering they exploded into growth and I had to tie them this way and that way throughout the rest of flowering to keep the lights from burning them.
So, your plans both sound good. I'd leave them in the 2g pots. Not really a great idea to shock them with a transplant during flowering anyway. And tie them however you must to keep them from frying on your lights. That didn't seem to bother my plants at all, they adjusted fine. Don't really see that you can do much else; it'll probably be a struggle the rest of the way...but it'll be worth it! ;)

Hey Jam thanks for checking up on me. Well I guess that I will have to just roll with the punches and ride it out. I will probably start tying down in a week or so after I am done sexing. So far 1 for sure male and 1 other possible male out of 12. Got rid of one male already.
May post pics tonight.
