If you want the plant to streach back the light up or cut the light cycle back some.But,IMHO,you will not get more bud by streaching your plant.Bud sites is the only place that buds will grow.So you have to work on getting more bud sites.Which would mean try and keep your nodes nice and close.You'll have more bud sites in alot lesser area by keeping the nodes closer and a stronger plant that will beable to hold the weight of the bud up..Keep it GREEN:hubba:

Stretch is the LAST thing you're going to want. Trust me, your plant will grow more than tall enough. Especially indoors, get a fan on it to simulate it blowing in the outdoor breeze or it WILL fall over eventually. I'm growing a short Indica, and at 5 ft tall, on top of the 22" of res and rockwool cubes, now I'm at 7 ft tall. Colas are rising past lights on all sides. Get's kinda interesting with an 8 ft ceiling.

you dont even know, I vegged my clones to two feet, thinking that bigger and stronger plant would be better, I didnt think my plants would get to big cus they are clones.... Now im freaking out trying down every branch cuss im running out of room, I would veg untill first signs of pre-flowering, if height is a problem, top your plants it will slow the height growth.
