Yeah, the stretch can get out of control.

If it is only a little slowdown that you need, you can
also just pinch and crush the runaway stems slightly.

This will stall growth slightly, and result in a thicker stem too.

Good luck,

JD

Oh....no, it will *not* be...at week 2 you have most
of the stretch to go. LST....tie some of the taller tops
over to the side.

This (preparing in advance for final plant size) is something
that I am also still working at.

Good luck,

JD

It is hard to be certain, and to be honest this is an area
that I am very much still figuring out myself. ...but that
looks like a good start. (I would tie it "over" more than "down")

The fact that the stretch varies with breed is another complicating factor.

My main concern on your behalf is where you are at in the flowering
cycle. It is likely that much of the stretch is still to come.

My ping-ponging this around with you is at least keeping it at the
top of the threads list (it sorts my timestamp of latest post), so that
hopefully one of the grey-beards will come along and settle the matter.

What you are trying to do, from my perspective, is to try to visualize
where the plants will be when the stretch is done, and to take the
necessary steps now to help make this happen.

Good luck,

JD
