I'm got 3 og #18 They have been in veg for a little over a month and are about 16-18 inches. I just switched to 12/12. I have about 2 more feet of space. Will the plant stretch more then that? Should I start worrying about them getting too tall? SUGGESTIONS PLEASE!!?

Ok man its like this all strains are different, some will stretch tremendouslyy and some only just a little. I flip my girls when they are 23 inches tall and by the time flower is over they are probaby close to 60 inches 60/40 sativa indica hybrid. They will continue to grow upward and outward during flower. there will be a time when they stop growing up and out and start to fatten up... cant tell withought knowing what your growing. If they do get too tall bending the tops over works great for me. The buds dont care.

well they could double or even triple in size, just make sure you keep your light close as possible to prevent strech and maybe think about tieing them down if you have the width. mine are nearly 3 weeks into budding and i have 1 foot left to move my light :/
next time maybe try some training like toping and FIMing

The OG18's do have quite a bit of stretch. Generally 2-3 weeks after 12/12 plants reach their full height (minus the buds that grow). Just tie them down or whatever you have to do to keep them from getting too tall.

Thanks for all the quick replies. Next time I plan on super cropping but for now i'll just hope they don't stretch too bad. I'll keep the light as close as possible with out burning my ladies

I super crop the first 2 weeks of flower, so it is up to you if you want to do that or not. I usually do that with OGs and my White Rhino
