So I’m new to growing as of this year. successfully I’ve already harvested 60 plants roughly. Though they were photoflowers that I accidentally flowered and decided to just harvest. However I’ve done a lot of trials and errors and research and learn extremely fast.

I moved to outdoors and successfully managed the harvest 3 small 36in autos.

I need some help with some answers or advice. I currently have a 7ft tall, 5ft long, and 4ft wide sativa plant.
I had started LST but it got so large I couldn’t manage to keep up. I now have 4 main branches of the one plant.
The issues I’m concerned over is that it’s been 8-10weeks of Pre-Flowering and no signs of moving forward in the budding
I’m also concerned about the overall condition and if it will even support all the weight from the buds. Or if I should be trimming some stuff down

Or anything that may help at all with any advice

Sativa can take 12-14 weeks to mature.
I know how u feel, though. This is my first year growing ( have garden knowledge ). And have a couple hybrids going. That are huge, in my standards.
My fear is the stretching during flowering. . And perceived...trim jail. If I make it thru this season to full maturity, without any hiccups.

Get some bamboo stakes and start supporting those branches!
