Ok I'm 2.5 wks into flowering and i got about a 6.5ft room and i have one plant atleast 5'9 i have 3 thats atleast 5ft I had to take the bulb out of the reflector to make more room so now the bulb is hanging from the ceiling the only thing i can think to do is tie it to the side of the wall and keep it away from the bulb. the bud will grow past the bulb at this rate take a look. wut do you think?... has anyone grown strawberry haze does it normally get that tall (its the last pic, its taller than me) very tall and strecthy

Put back the reflector, and bend the plant. That way more light gets to the rest of the plant.

just remember if you start bending her over and tieing her up ... that sounded dirty... lol anyways... your gonna slow her flowering time down.... just be prepared to wait an extra week or so...

look on youtube for 'supercropping'. There's a great video on there showing how it's done. That's a little easier than just bending them.. a bit safer, too. Bending, at this stage of the game, might snap your stalk. It'll recover from that fine, I'm sure, but it'd recover from supercropping much faster.

Also.. sativas in a 6.5' space is probably easier with ScrOG. Next time, try a ScrOG if you want to grow sativa giants.
 
thankks guys im soo pissed now tho cause i had one tied to the side wall so it wouldnt be too close to the light and i went to go move it i forgot it was tied to the wall and it snap the main stalk off its at 2.5 weeks of flowering i hope that doesnt hurt anything i hope i end up with 2 main colas, if you look at the pic you can see where its was tied at.
