HELP plant too tall!!

[Mnoutdoorz]

So one of the nevilles is growing about 4 times its size in 2 1/2 weeks of 12/12. It's to the top of the cabinet now and still growing. what are my options? i heard a guy talk about what he called "tipping" where he cut the buds a few weeks into flower and they turned into short fat nugs instead of long medium sized ones. is this a good idea? i need options quick it's still growing a couple inches a day!

if its in dirt ?
i'd put a drywall screw in the rim of the pot its in n gently bend it n tie it down w/ yarn or something similar . i suggest no stress w/ tipping / topping once it's already started flowering .
peace

Yeah just bend it a bit, diagonally across your grow space.

that's pretty much what i was thinking to do with it

[greenmanondeck]

well put it in the woods or cut it and sell some and what type of plant is it and i might be able to help you some more

squeeze the stalk till it squishes a little, then lay it in the direction you want it to grow.
where it's been squished it will form a hard knuckle.

with this advice, i wouldnt want help, i wouldnt top it either as your flowering already, i would take the advice on lst'ing it, start pulling it left then right as you go up and then rotate 90 degrees and do the same i would just start pulling it which way it will go with the least amount of pressure, it should give your an extra half foot, be careful as not to damage the main stem. dont do too much at once either, you can keep pulling and tightenign the strings as it adapts to the pull.

or use yoyo to pull the branches down, but if you limited for space try underpinning the plant with cane next time.

If you are using a 3 part food cut out the grow. Just use micro and bloom this will help to slow down the growth.

Hello Mr. DOORz

DO not cut the PLANT (any substantial bud producing branches) during flowering... this IS NOT GOOD..

YOU can tie a string to the tip of your plant and then tie a screw or a bolt to the other end.. this will tilt your plant downward... Add strings and BOLTS/WEIGHT every couple days to bend the branch further and further..

cheers
