Hello, thats the first time i grow weed so i am a beginner.
I maded a grow box with wood, i placed in/out fans and an extra fan at top of box.
My weed has been vegging for about 40 days now i turned lights under 12h from a week, the problem is that my plants continue in growing and they doest have space anymore. I never topped them before yesterday!
Look at picture and please tell me what can i do! :) no much space left, maybe 10 centimeters.
i cannot make a new box neither move them.
should i give up?

Dont give up man you got a nice looking plant there! Get some string and tie the tops to the side of the bucket.this should sort your problem out.You will probably have to keep tying bits down until its nearly finished in that space but you will make it through(-"

time to bend its called LST low stress training

and basically everyday you bend the hell out of it in a direction that gives you the design

look it up lots of threads and post about it, you basically bind or tie or bend your plant to a certain position(using paperclip hooks, or tie wire helps) and then continue every day till the plant is the shape or look or design you prefer

Don't give up. Don't be that guy. Don't be that teenage mother who shames her famiree and leaves her newborn child behind a church by the dumpster in a fruit basket with a pretty little ribbon and a tag that reads "Tell him what he's won Johnny!" Just don't.

hello, thanks everyone for answers! i'll not give up then, i've bend them and tied them down with a metal string.
however plants looks horrible now! the new leafs are not in light direction now. i hope will survive. (i also broke a leaf doing that) is ok like this now? should i do something else?
sorry for not uploading the images directly in forum but my safari is buggy.

Looks like he solved his height problem,me I just bend then to a 90 degree angle and stake them down till they point back up but that metal screen seems like a better plan for his plant.
