prune them, super crop, if your going to cut the use sterile instrumens and make sure its a clean cut dont forget to take clones
I took a side wall for a dog cage and laid it across the canopy. left 2 weeks and removed. trains a bunch at once
how bout u dont take that guys advace about pruning them an go with either lsting or scroging them lst means low stress training search for it in this forum or look in my thread it works wonders cut fanleaves as appose to tieing them or training them stresses plants as well as killing its power factory fanleaves
tie the mother down!
A product called Bush Master from Humbolt growers will stop them from growing any taller once you apply it.
and what product would make them support the first floor of my house like yours Zandor???? :D

Also, what I would suggest is also to tie it down which is called LST (Low Stress Training) and continue to die it down. Actually, I would sugest topping it but you said you don't want to cut anything so yea.
Hi guys a quick note to say thanx for all your sugestions and help
i have solved the problem by bending the stems (worked very well)
as for Sharpstoner, m8 u know nothing! havein limited space makes growing more of a challenge i have attached the pics.:rasta: :thumbsup:
Auxins promote node growth and cytokinins promote cell elongation. With sativa varieties such as yours it is not a bad idea to increase the auxin to cytokinin ratio. Thrive alive red is not all organic but it has added auxins which come in handy for sativas. Norwiegn kelp products are a natural source of auxins. Thrive alive is made from the tops of the kelp where the most growth cells are. The thing is liquid seaweed extracts break down in terms of biochemicals quicker then dry seaweed. Because this is the case a time tested product such as maxicrop is benefical.
Supercropping is another good measure to use as someone mentioned. People that use fans will tell you the movement of the stem strenghtens. Growers can bend the stems, starting very gently at first and it works well. I use a different method after the stems have been bent for a while. I call it spinning. I use smaller pots. When they are dry I hold the 6 inch plant by the stem and twist it back and forth. Once she is warmed up play DJ. Spin the pot one way till you get a bit of resistence then the other way. Keep doing this more and more each time. Eventually with practice you can twist the top of a plant many times in a circle on a small plant. The stems get to be like solid jello. Experienced supercroppers can take say a 8 inch plant, make it into a circle travelling around it twice, lay it flat on the soil with a hand over it making it under an inch tall, then a min. later have it stand straight up again. I had hundreds of plants to practice with so I could afford to make some mistakes. If you crack the stem just tie a bandage around it for a few days and keep your cracks clean. Dental floss works well tied like a ballarenas leg laces or seen on a roman farmers sandels. The dental floss will grow into the stem when she starts to swell so keep an eye on it. Your stems will no longer be hollow and they will swell quite large. It is good to do it every few days. My advice is clone like its the last time you will ever grow and practice. The worst thing that can happen is youll have to many nugs to smoke. If that is the case and you become over burdened with stress just mail them to me and set your mind at ease.
One love
