Best fix for plant too tall.....

Update,

He/she is now in flower and budding up very nicely, the stress finally made her hermie. But on the flip side I have 4 fresh clones from the weak undeveloped areas that are still in veg. So I've potted them and will grow them indoors with my other clone from a few weeks ago.

I think al continue the grow and get myself a few seeds female guarantee plus a drop of hopefully good bud. By this time the clones will be well vegged and looking to flower so back in the tent and just grow single colas from the offspring. Plus the bonus of knowing the plant now, and how to do it much better second time round hopefully some nice girls and a scrog setup and a big rethink on how to do it much better.

Al put pics on in a week or so when they start to fill out, the plants still in a 10/14 routine now she is forced flowered should I change the timing at all?

Cheers for all the comments guys the help so far has been spot on........

Wow..you cloned it? After all that time and still no bud (and now its herming), maybe that strain isnt the best candidate to grow again. Good idea on the fem seeds though, Id just go with that.

Cheers for the help fellas but the story ends I've chopped it. Time to start again was a good learning curve. Pretty much no what am doing now so time for a proper seed and quick finish plant.

Good move, better off starting with good genetics.
I've done a whole bunch of free seeds recently from seed orders and there are a lot of crap around.
Some don't even start maturing in flowering til you reduce light to 10 hours or so.. and even at that they can take like over 16 weeks and shit...stuff that!!

I have a tear in my eye... It is very unfortunate that y ou had to go through all this hard work without any results.
Like some1 said earlier, try to give it a 48hours darkness time before flipping it into 12/12. And you shouldn't be messing with the stems
when plant enters flowering. If you have a poor light penetration: take off some big fan leaves on the main stem and some secondary. You can do this once a week or so if you see that plant is not stressing over it.
Would love to see the 2nd try with tose genetics...

Good luck
