My plant is way too big.
I was growing some strawberry cough... my first and only feminized seed that grew. I grew it for 2 months in about 1 1/2 gallons of soil under 3200 lumens until it was 2 feet(it completely outgrew the soil by halfway through the second month). I waited so long to flower it because i was trying to get some clones to survive before i budded her. She has been budding for almost a week now under 150 watts of HPS and has grown about 6 inches. So she's 2'6" now. I only have about a foot left of room to grow her until she starts to burn near the HPS. Because of the growth rate i'd say i have about 2 weeks MAX till i reach critical height. The problem is that i believe they tend to grow for about 5 weeks before the buds fatten, not 3?
I think that the small root mass might keep it from growing too much... but i'm afraid it may also lead to ridiculously tiny buds(I intended to offset by making sure it's fed very well).
I'm wondering if I should
A. try some low stress training
B. try topping it(sounds stupid I know)
C. put the light on the side of the plant so that it starts to grow sideways
D. bend the main stem so that it focuses more on lower growth
I was also wondering if i should bother moving it into a bigger pot this late in the game.
