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
love mand xxxmand Reviewed by mand on . MY SET UP 1ST TRY Hello I I'm having a heat prob, I got home from work and my closet grow room temp was 109%F with a 3ft fan moving air around in the closet by the way i have a 400wMH. Today was the 2nd day with this set up yesterday it wasnt as hot I think the outside weather had a lot to do with that being that it wasnt really cold today. But my question is should I install an A/C in my closet (its a window a/c) cause i dont even think 3 fans would do any good :confused: or should i get a 250 MH the Rating: 5
