Could you snap some more pics of her?

Topping::::::
top=topping=FIMing
FIM = Fuck I Missed

When topping, the idea is that you cut out the top of the plant, and she'll grow two or more spreads in that top.

From my experience, it takes about 2-3 weeks for the plant to 'recover' from such topping.

Do a search limited to the Advanced Section... I know there's various kick-ass threads that explain, in much detail and with pictures, what's FIMing and how should it be done.


IMHO, this is wrong.

I'm not an expert, but::::
I believe that you should permit a plant at least 2 weeks (aprox) to recover before 12/12ing them.
If you top, don't 12/12 immediately.

And I wouldn't FIM if I'm in 12/12.

But what the hell... that's the best thing about this... EXPERIMENTATION.

Best to you all,

turtel you could be right .Stylus could you get some good pic of the weird plants as it may be polypiod . and from what i have learned i will go with turtle on this and say always give at least 2 weeks after topping before going 12/12 you want at least that time for the plant to recover from the stress .Plants should be a stress free as possible during 12/12.be safe the postman.
