you waited too long to switch to the flowering cycle...

next time switch to 12/12 when they are shorter and they won't wind up being as tall

low stress training, topping, super-cropping and some savage tie-downs are in your future...

probably a pheno that gets tall,keep the lamp as close to the plant as possible to reduce stretching next time

and if you use a smaller container the root system can't get as big, which will limit the overall growth of the plant

next time use Bud Ignitor or Bud blood, they both really help stop the stretch without using banned products. Some of the other products contain known carcinogens.

yes, a few things you could do:
1st would be get another less stretchy strain but, i understand, thats not always an option. so maybe;
keep lights close
fertilize very little for the 1st 2 weeks of 12/12
prune/train
less veg
Then there's the bushmaster bud blood and whatnot which works very well, i must admit but....
