Getting too big and too tall

Hi all,

As much as I love watching my baby grow big and strong as we all do, quite simply this plant is too big now and can be seen by prying eyes which is a big concern.

Short of chopping down this beauty and stripping it bare, is there any way to 'trim' it effectively so as to still encourage flowering but decrease its visibility? Bit worried the white hairs have just started too so it won't be ready for a good couple of months I imagine.

Thanks!

Get some heavy objects. Space them around your pot. Bend each branch over to the desired height, and tie it off the the heavy objects. Use a loose loop on each branch to avoid strangling the branch. Sometimes the branches are rigid and need to be adjusted several times to get them to the desired height. Keep bending them until about half way through flowering.

That's really funny but it looks like it just might work. I have the same problem since mine are in my garden with tons of other plants I am just going to tie them down. Thanks for the giggles.

Trim your bush, bro!! The girls dont like it!

Agreed -- Maybe invest $100 at a local Home Depot or something to get some big trees to put right next to it.

That sure is a monster!
