First grow "White Widow"

Me personally with my experience would terminate. There are other options but you got lots more to chop off

You’ve probably got a couple record-setting fan leaves there – one of them seems to spread almost the entire width of the unit?!

I agree with Todd she’s not going to stop stretching. Need to bend her at much lower points and/or just chop off some of the tops entirely and focus on lower buds giving them room to stretch. Might be a bit too late for that if she’s already started flowering a lot though.

If you continue without doing much but bending the very tops, the yield will suffer for one reason or another and depending how much stress is needed to bend/crop it away from being burnt that’ll slow it down even more so (time to heal), which is why the recommendation is to terminate and not waste any more nutes than you have to. It’ll also be much more thirsty since it’s larger which will drain the water/nutes even faster. It’s a compounding problem. Even just having more fan leaves means more to prune which adds to the stress and delays (and overall nutrient consumption). Those are the things to consider, really.

I would probably just chop the tops off and focus on remainder (leaving room to stretch a bit) but can’t say for certain if that’s actually the best thing to do.

Are those pics after you super cropped again? And when you do are they stay at 90 degrees? If not you’ll have to use something to keep it at that 90 until she recovers or it’ll just pick back up again.
Todd may be right on this one though if she wont stop you’re not going to get much or anything due to the burning on the top. Idk how she would take to cutting all the tops off. Could work but might shock her and might affect things too. Have you pushed the coco pod down at all? Won’t help much but might give you and inch or two :man_shrugging:

Drop the pod, buy some supports and magnetic hooks, trail the hooks along the wall in a circle around the wall of the grobo and hook your branches under the hooks with the hook part facing down so she doesn’t wiggle out.
Making sure to not break, you can use your supports to hold the plant down until you can get them under the hooks without having to break.
Or
Use a scrogg at the top before you get close to the light and bend them under the scrogg.
Or
Take the plant out if possible and finish the grow in a tent or outside.

You have to super crop and tie down … if I were I’d super crop all those big branches again and tie them so they stay sideways… the buds will
Slowly face upward over the next few days …

You also need to trim the hell out her too many leaves for that space your gunna run the risk of PM

Trimmed her up this morning! She is all tied down and pod is as far as it will go down. She has been very resilient! I just want to see her thru to harvest. I really appreciate all the insight!

Get you some grobo supports and anchor your branches from direct lighting so they don’t burn.

Looks good! My first grow only yielded 29 grms of bud.
Did you use big bud by advanced nutrients on this grow? If not give it a try next grow, it really helped me!
