Iv just checked out a way to bend the plants using paper clips it seems really good http://www.overgrow.com/growfaq/1138 i was wondering tho if anyone knew at what age or size of plant you would start to use this technique and do i need to top the plant first to get results from doing this ?

Does this question not make any sense or does no one know the answer or is it that no one wants to answer ?

Sorry Majic Bud.... I was really stoned last night and forgot to reply.

Bending a plant accomplishes at least two functions...I am sure there are more but what I do know....

1. Causes hormonal changes that force the plant to grow thicker stems throughout the entire plant. Hence, the "twisted" stem appearance.

2. It exposes the secondary growth to light. (If done adequately) The end result is designed to produce a higher yield.

In bending, esentially you are trying to not grow the plant vertically but rather horizontally.

You can bend at any age.

Not all plants need to be bent.

You must anchor down your bend...or the plant will unbend...at least untill its trained.

Bending is good for most MJ plants.

You are attempting to increase yield...by causing growth that normally is shaded by fan leaves...to get complete light exposure. In time, the main cola will be growing but so will all the secondary grow shoots...thus you have have more bud in the end.

Pic #1 is whore. This is how she stands.
Pic #2 is whore. I have my finger on the MAIN COLA. Note how the secondary growth is almost as prevelent as the main cola.
Pic #3 is an outdoor plant I just bent over in fact yesterday. I took thepic last night, in the rain for you but forgot to post....sorry.,,,,
Pic #4 is how whore looked...only 14 days ago...and how she would still look, had I not bent her.
PIC #5 is Cunt. There is NO NEED to bend her at all. Bending her might induce stronger stem strength, but would not increase yield. She doesn't NEED it.

I Hope this helps.....

HAPPY BENDING

Also, when bending, try and keep the leaves from touching dirt. The leaves touching dirt will die faster than they need to and while it wont harm the plant it can stress it.

Place rock or gravel or something with little or no microscopic life on the bottom where the leaves might otherwise touch.

Thanks for the patience there majical bud....

Thanks alot for the reply m8 its all very usefull i think im gona use the bending technique but im not gona go totally horizontal with it as got lots of space for them to grow vertical aswel gona go with about 45% bending then bend whatever comes from that 45% and hopefully ill have some big bushy bitches just as i like em . THANKS ALOT M8 IM BUZZIN NOW
