fimming?

[Volker]

I've been fimming the moms with my fingernails. I wouldn't do it on a plant that is supposed to go into flower that month because of the recovery time, but it seems effective for getting the most possible cloneable shoots off one growing tip.

This plant isn't scheduled to go into the flowering room till Jan 19th, so there will have been a 2 week recovery time between FIM & budding start.

EDIT: looking close, I may have cut too much. The 2 nodes below the fim are growing, but I see very little growth on the FIM cut itself. I may hold off on the bud another week.
