Hey SC!

I do the leaf tucking and take large plastic coated paperclips, unbend them ( is that a term) so that you leave two hooks on the end and attach one end to the bud/stem in the way (that little hog) and the other to a sturdy branch or stem. Doesn't even matter if its on the same plant. I look at the top and just try to figure out where the light is being block from an emerging bud and move the offender. Keeps my canopy nice and mostly even. Still doing it at flower week 4 of this grow. It's fun. I see you little bud, come out, come out where ever you are! OK that last part was pot induced! LOL!

The paperclip idea sounds great! That actually may solve part of it for me....It's crazy how just one out of my four is like this mutant giant

Did your cheese stretch like crazy in the first few weeks of flowering?

SC,

They pretty much all do. Some as little as 150% ( mostly indica) but some are 300% of veg height (sativa). Plan accordingly if you have height restriction.

I have a bunch of BB Blue cheese that streched a ton. I think it's pretty normal for them. Yours look great (about like mine ), I think I'm just a little further then you though.

Think you're right on the stop growing. Mine stop around 20 days in flower and then they get to filling out. I have about 3 weeks left to cut before I pause to reconfigure my grow room for more production. Eventualy want 2-BP's and a couple of 4' fence post ebb and flows with 6 pots in each that I'm going to build but I keep coming up with ideas and I'm fluxing between a couple of layouts. By then I might be able to take pictures.

Here is a couple pics of my Blue Cheese for you. These were taken at 21 days flower. The first pic is of my grow space, 4x4x6 cab with some blue cheese, white widow, and a freebie pure gold which actually looks pretty good.
