Increasing space between notes?

Increasing space between notes? |

The three bars in the example below illustrate a problem in the middle
of a piece I'm transcribing. The composer has written sfz followed by a
diminuendo onto the following note, but lilypond does not make enough
horizontal space for the ">" diminuendo.
Bar 1 illustrates that problem. Bar 2 illustrates my work-round to
force enough space for the dim. Unfortunately, the work-round does not
solve a similar problem (bar 3) where the diminuendo ends on a rest
rather than a note.
I've tried too many different things to remember, let alone describe
here. Please help!

% This bar gives "warning: decrescendo too small" :
a'2->\sfz\> g'4--\p f'--
% The next bar is kludged to make enough space for the dim.:
<< {a'2->\sfz\> g'4--\p f'--}\\{\hideNotes g'4 g'4 g'2}>>
% But the kludge does not work for this bar:
a'2->\sfz\> r2\p
}
