I am going to cut and clone everything up of the cut, what do you think, my plant is gettin some crazy altitude
just gunna cut the stem? think maby a better idea to top it, also i think if you did cut it there it may be a little small for clones from my expirence cloning (which is EXTREMELY limited) but i only have suscess when it is a larger branch + also remember that when you flower you plant will prob at least double in size
it is about 10 cm of just steam o.O, plus 5cm of the top, it will be 15cm for the clone, i was thinking in that because my plant is going way too fast to the lights, and not too bushy.
by the way, the cut i was thinking is cut the steam, and it will carry everything, the top and the new leaves and everything.
if it will double the size, i better cut right now, i have no chains in my light, i am fixing the altitude with books over the pot you know, sounds "lol" =).
well a double in size maby not bee a 100% correct, it really depainds on strain ww's can easily more that double wile some others maby will add maby 50% of size.
what kind of lights is it under? how old is it? maby its better to fim/top it or maby LST (never lst maby too late for that)
i think thats a great spot to start at....and cutting at that part IS topping. if your looking to get a bushier plant thats a good way to start; and would be a nice healthy clone if everything else goes right.Quote:

alright, let the surgery begin...
40% humus
60% ready soil ph 7
i am pulverizing water from the top of the bottle to the inside, you will know if it work and if doesnt, lol =), eitherway my plant will be more brushy
There you go, grandma style!
my straing pretty sure its crappy, its on 250watts mh and its 7weeks vegging old, i really think its too big for LSTQuote:

In theory what you have done should work in making your plant bushy. However you may just find you have cut off your main cola stem & as yet have not trained any others to take its place, also as you will not get the FIM type new growth you may find none of the existing branches rush up to take on the job of leader which could result in a bush full of branch bud. IMHO I suggest you try some LST training to ensure you develop some leader branches to replace the main stem you just took off.
