The funny thing is, I have hardly any stretching at all. In fact, they are kind of close together, I was going to top 4 of them but I am lost at exactly where (never had them this tight! Hard to tell exactly where to cut and still be able to get roots on the cuttings, trying not to waste one iota!)
you cut above 1 node and get to colas, cut above the 2nd node and get 4 colas and so on. IMO above the 2nd true node is the way to go, get 4 fat all colas.
it must be the leds and the extra blue thats helping them not stretch, if CFL or HID they should be pretty lanky. also strain matters.
