20190819_133602.jpg Should I top a bit more? Manifolded and only topped once on each side. I kinda want to veg longer but I'm afraid she's too stringly as it is. Think it's ok to wait? I want to get a half lb from her so I'm looking for advice, i don't mind waiting at all, in fact I almost have to.

Id clean it up a bit. But remember the flower stretch. Its gonna double or triple in size. Like @hotrodharley said. Super crop it. Level the playing field

Clean it up a bit?? As in defoli or snipping branches? I'm aware of the stretch, no worries on that except if they're weak branches they might not hold buds.

Itll toughen up. Get some fans blowing on it. Also dont be afraid to cut and snap and bend. If its too lanky you can always just stake it up.

Its a learning process.
Wait til you get a few grows in.. Instead of being all careful, youll think. "Fuck this branch and just snap it off" lol

If that was my plant id supercrop the hell out of it and toss a net on it and veg a bit more

Only a 3gal.. I don't have space ATM for another 5gal, can I keep her in veg for another month before transplant to keep her small for a while?
Soz, I fell of the planet for a few days...

3 gallons should be fine; u could stress her if u repot now or later. If u keep her in veg she will grow anyway, so will the roots

Those branches will def toughen up. Like srh said put a fan on her.. not too lanky at all... what light and size space r u using?

More light.

Introduce some potassium silicate.

Treat her mean. Tie her down and hopefully she'll strengthen up.

That plant will be lucky to yeild an ounce unless you start to train her.

8oz?

Come on.... You can't be serious.

Looking back I can't believe I had any expectations over an oz. Still in veg, only topped twice so far, manifold plus once on each side. Just figured I'd update y'all on the progress and thanks again for the input. Front n back, I actually really like how she's growing so far but I know I'll have to tied her down and spread her out how she likes it. Might have to find an outdoor area to flower in the spring, she's not gonna fit in my tent lol15684098885844314362455151637575.jpg 15684099299414706789625903411066.jpg

That's actually a different plant than my initial post, my bad, I actually did end up throwing the other one in my tent, it's packed in there, I'll post that one in about 2 hours when lights go on..
