Start Tieing branches down or top it if you havent and if u arent in flowering...take clones..

might sound a bit nooby but ive never tried cloning it aye, what do you mean by tying branches down but? would that stop it growing?

Hi DON..

1. what kind of light are you using?
2. what is your medium?

You may not like the sound of this BUT i bet it is your best bet..

You will not have enough light to FLOWER that monster....
You should clone the shit outtat that plant.. BASICALLY, CUT it in half and make about 50-100 clones. I am assuming that this plant is a healthy 6 feet..
Then let it veg for 5 more days and flower..

Why are you vegging so long?

cheers

if u dont want to buy nothin to clone
jus cut a branch coming off the main stem..cut the little leaves at the bottom of the cutting..if their are any in the way atleast..
get a cup that is dark and no light can shine threw and fill it up with water and put the cuttin in the cup for a few weeks to grow roots..sit it on a window sill or something..it takes a while but is alot easier then buyin cloning gel and then gettin a humidifier and everything.make sure no light is shinin directly on the cuttin ..:blsmoke:

wow....90 days vege....and 2 m ...no flowers. thats a tough one. with typical 2-3X gain in height into flowering? I am with GK.....how will one ever effectively light such a monster (indoors)? I think the idea of cloning would be the thing to do.....but as this person only has one plant (assumption?) 50-100 clones might not be practical. but cloning certainly seems to make the most sense.

Good job on making a 2m plant.....and good luck with your road forward.....I'll be watching.

its crazy that you let it get that big in the first place considering you have limited space!when you change to 12/12 obviously it'll grow even more!if you aint got a bigger space to grow it then you guna havta tie it down or chop it up which you probably dont wana do!

its kind of an outside greenhouse i rely 50% on natural sunlight, i only run the lights for about 6-7 hours a day, as the pigs are always sendin choppers round my way. ive been doin this for a couple of years now and 80-90 days seems to be around the time they start showing, mind you there big girls once i harvest, but ive never had one shoot up this tall before

Do you know the sex?.... If u dont know the sex wouldn't it be
pointless to take clones and it turn out to be male? Wouldn't the clones be males too?

HI :)

take clones now.. mark which plant the clones came from.. i prefer using tooth picks and masking tape.. with a marker... or several different colored markers..

then, when a plant turns male,you can throw away the corresponding clones..

or you can just wait until the plant shows sex and then clone.. but flipping back from veg to flower and then to veg again is not time efficient..
