Gsc bagseed all bunched up help anyone?

[Mr.tokemann420]

Greetings all it's been a wile since I've posted as I stopped growing for quite some time first grow since I'd say 2011 found seeds in a batch of outdoor gsc an decided to be a good opportunity to get back at it well here I am about 17 days 12/12 and my biggest mistake this time around was I way over vegged hearing of how low a yield gsc produces I let them go for over 2 months whoops now trying my best to tie down but there just isn't enough height as they continue to stretch I'm hoping the ol ic fam will come to the rescue and help make it thru this grow hopefully this mistake won't be made again I had just taken so much time off I kind of forgot how funky these things can act slowly getting my mojo back I'm running a 630w dual cmh along side a couple cheaply Chinese made LEDs the girls under the cmh are stretching into the heat zone and are starting to get toasted a few are already pretty heat stressed and I'm almost out of ideas the branches on these are so sturdy it's almost impossible to bend without breaking and there about as tall as the tent(4x8x6) approaching 6feet! any input will be greatly appreciated they're crying for help

I may take the scissors to the tops that are growing into my lights. The buds will be dried up and burned anyways. I think one plant I have wants to grow through the bar light. No bending that one. That plant could have filled a 4 x 4 tent by itself.

Really appreciate the input yes that seems to be the only way as of now I just snapped another top of one of the smaller girls not even ten minutes ago trying to tie it down not even a 50 degree bend and SNAP these things are so breakable don't think I've ever grown anything like it so heck might as well save myself the heart palpitations and snip instead at least I'll have control of how much is taken off instead of playing blindfolded guillotine with them man this whole situation really sucks I guess it could be worse

Few shots of my rocky horror at 18 days 12/12 only thing I'm concerned with snipping tops is ending up with pop up nanners which would ruin all the time and effort put in to this I just need to make it to the finish and things should be smooth sailing next go around

Other side of tent under the LEDs and my little one I accidentally broke the top off of now wondering if it's safe to keep in the garden or not seeing the seeds did come from a batch of seeded gsc I wonder just how hermi prone they really are man I guess only time will tell

Your garden looks really good. When I tie down plants in veg I use a long string and tie it to the base of the plant. If you use a short string or metal tie you will break the stem every time. Make your string a couple of feet until the plant gets used to it. Also, do it very gradually and pull about a 1/2 inch at a time per day. They will bend but you have to bend them very gradually over a week or two. Sometimes I will bend my plants as much as a foot without any problems.

Thx cp I'm trying my darndest to keep things maintained so I took your advice starting them with a half inch bend then inching em down as the days go there's just so many phenos all with different characteristics bending one half inch no problem then doing the same on the next results in a snap, here's where I've gotten so far will just continue your recommendation tying whatever enters the no go zone
