To answer you auxins question. those hormones always travel up. What ever node is the highest will contain more auxins than the rest. Keeping them on a flat plane would be ideal for the hormones but not for the light source. In the end I always have one thats about an inch above the rest and consequently larger than the rest. I try to make that one the main branch since it already has the most meat(stem thickness).

I heard that the main stem top only needs to be under the rest of the nodes for 1 week to properly re-dist. auxins then it can be allowed to continue growth upward. Is this correct?? should i be able to let the Rating: 5
