1. Make sure where your plant is that is has the most light during veg so it doesn't get stretchy because they can get huge.
2. Train them .... lst works well. You can even scrog outdoors.

don't answer the door when they knock, change your phone number....
keep your light as close as possible, and cold water kelp contains a lot of cytokinins, they promote short internodal length

You could set up some lattice behind them or trellis and top and tie them down or as suggested you can scrog them

1st off why bother? (neighbors?)
The only way out is topping, not recommended if the plant is past 4 weeks, or LST which means putting stakes in the ground and pulling over the top of the plant.
I recommend stakes and string.

You're going to want to top your plant, as suggested by Beachwalker; after you'll want to train your plant to have a low profile.

Weekly or more foliar kelp application combined with warmer evenings than days.... and bring the lights closer.

i missed it at first too, he's growing outside, so moving the sun isn't an option
kelp does work pretty well, but i agree with Jim, tie her down, change the silhouette, people have a hard time recognizing familiar things in odd configurations.

Unless they are stoners, then they will drool, and probably rip off your plant

I was thinking about topping but i heard it's not recommended When growing early girl, this strain seem to have the largest bud on the main stem. Or what do you think? I was thinking about tie it down.
How would the result be if i just have a net over it, could i keep the height down this way?

somewhat, you'd be better off at this point bending her over, and taking the downward pointing branches, and training them to grow upwards

Topping, LST, and super cropping are really your only options. That and strain choice will have make a difference. Indicas grow pretty short for the most part and flower sooner.
Even after all that tho you still run the risk of having a monster. my last yrs outdoor grow i tried to keep my girls down cuz i cant have them going higher than my fence (2 cop neighbors on either side of my street and i dont want to advertise to any rippers) but i still ended up with one plant that finished at just over 5ft tall and just under 7ft across lol. I trained the shit out of her and she loved everything i threw at her. She had her own plans to go beast mode tho.
