I'm growing some god bud and it is at week 5 flowering. my problem is that it is outgrowing its box. The top leaves are getting burnt and i'm worried about the bud being f-ed up. would it be alright if maybe I bent the plant to the side and tied it down cause there is no way to get more room unless I move it. my roommate and I are using a bloombox from bcnorthern lights which is supposed to hold 9 flowering plants and we have one in it and it has pretty much filled the entire chamber.

so my question is should I chop the top off or should I bend it over please help soon.

Don't chop it!!! You'll just stress the whole plant at this late stage and screw up your grow. Gently pull the plant to the side and tie her down over the next few days to buy yourself more growth room. Don't try to do it all in one day, go slow and work with her over at least 3 days. This will buy you space without stressing the stem and causing bending or breakage. GL HH

negative on the chop it redirects flowering hormones from the top and will stop resin production where you want it. Bending is the way to go it should stop vegatative growth soon anyways if you're at 5 weeks that pretty much the end of it. Pull that sucker down you don't wanna sacrifice your kolas thats like 1/4 of your harvest weight lol
