I'm not really sure what you removed. 90% of what exactly? Is it 90% of a new shoot? It was my understanding you remove part of the new shoot before it starts turning into a node. I hope I'm not sounding like too much of an idiot here, but I always get freaked out when it comes to fiming. It's like I'm in the twilight zone every time I try to understand it. Perhaps it would help if I tried to understand it some time when I'm sober.
Opie Yutts Reviewed by Opie Yutts on . FIM technique: past experiences? Thinking about doing the FIM technique on a smaller plant. I hope to 1. create more colas, instead of one main cola (on icmag they were saying you can get 8 colas there). The second thing i'm hoping is to slow down the main cola growth, and allowing the lower nodes (which are immature) to catch up. As I understand, the plant will take about 1-2 weeks to continue growth at the top, but in the meantime focuses on the lower nodes... is this correct? anybody do this technique before? Rating: 5
