i have a headbanger in hydro, next to a runtz muffin, and an unknown seed- all doing well, but while the runtz and the unknown have finished the stretching , the headbanger continues growing... i'm in a 5x5ft tent, and i'm running out of headroom... HELP...

That Headbanger is some good herb. I really liked that one for potency. Never took cuts as I've never had much luck with Karmas gear and wasn't expecting much. Dumb lol

Yup, she shoots up. Weave into your screen, use multiple screens. Lots of lower stem and budsite removal. Thats the way.

How many days of 12/12 got the plants? If you have a heavy Sour D leaning phenotype she can stretch until day 30 pretty strongly. If you are in the first 2 weeks of flowering you can still cut the part who could be too tall or bend the branches. Did you top your plant or not and what day of 12/12 is it ? Without those info it's not easy to know exactly how to help you.

At this stage the Headbanger should stop to grow and only will gain height with the flowers forming, you can bend the taller branches to reduce her height that's what i'would do in this case. You have to pinch the stems and slowly work it to allow it to bend without breaking, it won't form a cola making this but each level will make a decent sized bud.
That's an ultra vigorous girl you have there, if you have cloned her you know what to expect on the next grows, she looks like she's leaning heavily on the Sour D side on the cross, you should have some very good buds to smoke out of her.
