[bluezman]

Hi there...i think i am gonna sun some easy ryder af and some ak48 sagmaratha af.
And i would like to give me some info with the pruning ??
When the plant need it?
And how you prune....cause at some previous run of non af plant i used to cut
the fun leaves little by little every day...But i understand that this make the plant more slower and not faster as i thought at the start????

So can anyone tell me fro pruning an Af ? and a normal plant?
thx growers info will be valuable!:rastasmoke:

You don't need to prune it. I would suggest trying LST if you're looking to increase your yields. You can find a lot of info on it, & it's pretty easy to do.

Not sure about the philosophy so to speak. It's like the art of bonsai I guess, it just kind of speaks to you after you learn the basics...Here's a plant I have now that I'm turning into a small mother plant that can give up at least a dozen clones every 7-10 days. I topped the plant after the 4th set of leaves, removed bottom growth, cut the resulting branches above 1st, 2nd, & 3rd set of leaves (from top to bottom branches), then again after the second set on each branch after that, and cleared out the center & badly placed branches. The key for me is to keep a nice, small canopy at the top because I'm using a fuorescent light that will give plenty of possible cuttings.
