    MY SET UP 1ST TRY

    Hello B Well pinching/topping, firstly there is no need to do it if you don't fancy it on you're first grow

    I think the general rule is don't pinch untill there are at least five nodes. I usually have about five or six nodes on mine when I just pinch the new growth off between my finger nails and I only do it on the top as well....................to be honest I've never tried doing the sides.
    For me it depends on the size of the plant to determine when I pinch because I like to end up with plants about a yard/metre in height at harvest time. So when they look about right I just nip the top off and then start inducing about five days later.


    Also B if/when you pinch them for the first time I would suggest using a small pair of sharp sisscors to do it with being very carefull not to take off any of the diagonal sprouts were the new stems are going to grow from ..........................very important that


    However B you don't have to pinch them, it's just down to personal preference

    May I suggest you do the LST instead?

    Just read through HARDDON's LST thread, and you will be off to a good start!

    Lol nice work BukDatAss, the worm castings or bat guano aren't going to smell thÃ*t bad, trust me i'ts not like you have nests of them taking group craps on your plants. The smell is rich, but not sick.
    So i've been told that vermiculite isn't the best for a beginner, so i would propose the use of perlite in this case. I'm currently using the Plagron Growmix. Perlite absorbs water and gradually release ist, so that the less experienced grower can have some control on the flow from top of the soil to reach the lower roots, who definately need water too.
    And with that, plenty of information is to be found here on these boards, about product information, brands, NPK value and sorts of bat guano and other to use. (I saw that RastaKaze is a real expert at this, he and turtle had a discussion about the bat shit but can't seem to find it)
    Happy growing!
    peace
