Okay so its 2 1/2 weeks into flowering, starting at 1.3 ft tall its now 2' 6" tall. Sour Diesel (Sativa Dominant), how much taller can you expect it to get?

a plant can triple in size depending on strain and envrionment. most plants double in size within the first 6 weeks and the last 6 weeks it can slow down and concentrates on bud growth. thats why people complain about bud size till the very end they fatten up

tie it down if you need to, like heathaa said expect it to get about approx 3 times bigger than it was before after the initial huge growth spurt they get the first 3-4 weeks of flowering, then they slow down and like she said seem to kinda stall out a bit.

how should you tie down *i dont have a height issue yet but im predicting one, i think im gonna hit 4 ft by end of grow* but I cant tie down because of the stems being to thick, i think they would snap if i tried that *sry for thread jackin but figure it might help you later as well :D*

been about a week, they were super cropped, only 2' 10" so like 4" in the past week, not too bad there is still about a foot and a half head room to go, only about 3.5 weeks into flowering

yep. supercropping is the only thing that i've found that works. then tying it down afterward.

yea everything was looking good till about 3 weeks in some leaves started yellowing, but only one plant.. Ive heard this tends to happen not really sure what the problem/solution would be... my guess would be anything with higher [Nitrogen]. Otherwise it looks really good, but compared to some other sativa journals ive been looking at I would say it looks like its 2nd week vs their "third" week growth wise which is somewhat disappointing. Not giving up yet, I understand the best weeks are the last weeks of flowering
