Big Bud

[phytokind]

OK so I've noticed how Big Bud has these four or so big ole lower branches that grow out and up, each with a nice cola, are there other strains like this? I think that my plant may be a Big Bud because it looks just like some big bud pictures and has those great appendages. Of course my plant is about two feet tall so it's like the mini me big bud, but whatever.

You can make pretty much any strain do the 4-cola thing if you pinch it right.

Grow to 5 nodes, pinch terminal bud.

Let side growth develop.

Pick 4 strongest branches.

Prune off all other branches.

Wait 3 weeks.

Put in flower.

Make sure no other side shoots sprout.

Enjoy your 4 fat colas.

Yeah I suspected that every plant could do that. And I did trim off two sickly leaves right at that node.

If you like Big Bud.. try Big Funk, it's Big Bud X Skunk #1.. it's just a giant skunk plant..

Yeah I was thinking about growing something that's a Big Bud cross, but that's not going to happen for awhile.

You might have trouble finding Big Funk anyways, it's fairly uncommon. I've got a couple, just not the equipment or the space for such a large plant.
