There isnt a way to completley stop the plants growth in height, however you can LST or, Low Stress Train your little girls. Basically its just a method of tying the plant down to produce more of a bush type growth, and spread equal light throughout to get equal sized buds instead of one big cola and have the rest be increasingly small ones. Heres a link: http://forum.grasscity.com/absolute-...-training.html.

Hope i helped you, and GL with the plants!

I am having a similar problem, maybe not quite as severe, but I am just tying the ladies down, they are totally into the bondage

but seriously, tie them a little, then pull a little more down, its working ok for me, just dont do too much to fast and you should pull through...

Theres an advanced nutrients product called b-52 in thier product guide it sais that it will almost halt growth, so dont do it when you want stretching, so that might be an option, but its a little expensive... like 30$ wouldnt pay for it unles i had your situation if you are really dedicated use it i guess i dk

It's too late to do what is considered "traditional" LST, that's true, but you can still tie her down. Depending on how woody the stalk is, you can tie a line and pull the main stalk over a bit, tie it tight, then tighten it a bit more in a couple of days, and so on so that by the end of 2 weeks it is growing at a 60-45 degree angle. Just careful not to snap that main stalk, but it can take some bending and will adapt slowly. The string will be very tight. Use thick string or otherwise protect where it wraps around the stalk, you don't want it cutting in.

If you do that, re-position the light if you can, because your greatest "height" may not now be available directly overhead. If you can position the light to be parallel to the main stalk you will have more room to get it away from the plant. Yes, this will cause the colas to start growing back towards the light, but you are trying to buy time and inches so it will help.

There also is a method that is supposed to cause the buds to grow more outward than up. Basically it is trimming the very top of the bud and then it will grow more fat rather than tall. I've never done it myself so can't vouch for it or instruct on the particulars, maybe someone else can chime in on that.

Don't wait to tie here down, do as toastybiz suggested and start tying now. If you wait till it starts burning the buds it will be to late.
