    Ok heres the deal, my plants are getting way to big to fast. There growing space is only a 2 1/2' X 2 1/2' X 5 1/2' chamber and they are reaching over 3 feet, and need a good 8 inch space between the tops and the lamp or they will fry. what could i do to keep them from getting much taller? im only on week 3 of flowering so i know there going to get a lot bigger am i doomed to top of my main kola buds? plzz help i really dont want to cut my babys :(

    Place a net above your plants then as they grow weave them in and out of the net this will keep the height level.Then about a week into flower let them grow straight up producing a screen of green or scrog.

    After the first 3 weeks of flowering, upward growth pretty much ceases.

    Just read the link, never heard of scrogging meaning wild sex. Learn something new everyday.

    Yeah, wild sex makes the screen fall down and really messes up the plants!!! I finally realized they were talking about two different things. LMAO
