my plant is doing fairly well... had to LST her to keep from being taller than my fence and being spotted like last year.

She has a nice growth on each limb of about 6 to 8 flowers in bunches. overall making a bud a little over a 2inches.

Is there anything to do to pomote more flowering. I figure I have about 1 more month til cold weather sets in.

Any help would be appreciated... will add pics as soon as able

At this point theres no way to get more flowers. You could have topped her and fimed her but not now.

What you can do is get them flowers bigger:thumbsup: Theres a ton of bllom buster type additives you can use. I use Maxibloom, but black strap mollasses is a natural additive that Im going to start using. Ive heard alot of good stuff about it.

Good luck:thumbsup:

here are the promised pics.. the camera doesn't want to focus on single buds or the bud groups real well...

She is about 7 to 8 feet long atm with many nice sturdy limbs

Looks great brodder...Let her ride, youll be fine. Add some flowering ferts, just a lil bit though. Do like half of what the instructions state, and slowly build upto it. Then stop a couple weeks before chop down:hippy:

Does topping and fimming promote more flower growth? or just create more limbs for the flowers to grow from?

You'll wind up with 2 full tops rather than the traditional single cola, but as mentioned it must be done fairly early. I top after 8 weeks to keep the height down and usually wind up with a nice 4'-5' bush.

actually if you pinch the top back quite early in the growing season, like after 4-5 nodes, you'll end up with more than 2 colas. I did that and three plants branched out with way more branches and sizeable buds, not colas, and the other 4 have about 6 colas apiece and they are small plants since I started in late May. i am flushing now to prepare for harvest.

I use the deer method. That's where deer eat the living fuck out of your babies and if there's anything left they're quite branchy. No seriously, fuck deer. :chainsaw:

I did a FIM on a bushy grape ape I just harvested. worked WONDERS. my plant was under 24" when done, but yielded over an oz dry. main cola had 4 tops...it was like a fist of beauty.

you can remove some leaves so the buds get more sun:hippy:
