search the term 'FIM' and 'pinching' this was answered VERY recently.
yea i did and ok when my plants about 4 to 5 weeks i kut off the top branch with about 10% left so it grows back with several colas...???or no and any advice on what u use to cut will be nice...
simple, ya can't screw it up (in fact, the term FIM stands for "fuck, I missed"):D ... just prune the top-most growing shoot ... you can either use a knife, a razor blade, a small pair of scissors (my favorite) ... or, if you are growing one helluva plant, these work well, too: :chainsaw: :jointsmile:
can i do it now or should i wait my plants r only like 2 weeks old but i wanna keep them short...and i cant remeber my other question hahaha too much weed ehh...:jointsmile:
yea i found those earlier but when should i do it is it safe todo now...
wait till it has 4 to 5 sets of leaves.
Karma i posted a download of an(updated) Overgrow grow tutorial in the lounge.. very easy to use and lots of information.
ok ill check it...
allow the plant to grow 4-5 internodes, sets of branches ... you don't need to be in any hurry, it matters little, as to when it is done, as long as it is still in it's vegetation phase ... best reason for topping is to control height, I have done it both ways, many times, and I don't think the yield differs all that much ... it's "six of one, half-dozen of the other", in my opinion ... some strains do not like it, and can be stressed, supposedly, but I have personally suffered no plant damage yet, from topping ... :smokin:
