[daneo iyc]

i had three plants grow from last years seeds that dropped off my harvest. went out in april and there they were. they are approaching 7 ft.i have decided to cut at least a foot off the tops. i havent done it yet......any suggestions as to where to cut? thank you for your advice

Seems to me it is a poor time of year to be chopping plants. They are getting their last good surge of growth before turning to bud in these parts.

tie it down a little so its not so tall. Its all good.

yeah i cage my plants with an inner and outer cage so i cage always have something to tuck and train branches under, then i put a scrog stylr screen a foot down in the cage for support, stake it into the ground and say goodbye to floppy buds and broken branches

heres the cage for reference, then theres one inner cage i use also..

Get some string/rope and a stake and pull it over, this could acutally increase yield, if you chop your plant probably wont recover well also additional stress....

Hang plastic fruit on it

Hahaha omg.

Where to chop? Are there multiple branches?

Try not to cut all of the internodes off. That's where the bud sits.
