very interesting! it's good to know that there is an actual science to removing fan leaves-smaller branches/buds. (i was gonna give u some rep for that but i can't apparently)

Have any of you heard about pinching buds to make them grow larger? The logic behind this is if you pinch the bud, the plant will feel like it's being damaged and kind of grow an extra bud in it's place. By pinching, I think my friend meant squeezing the stem near the bud so the plant thinks it's been severed. Anyone?
dutch.lover Reviewed by dutch.lover on . Our Continuous Harvest...more bud every 10 days! Hey all, I thought it was time to start a new log, this one will be focused on our flowering plants. As you all should know, Harris7 and I grow together.:greenthumb: This is a place where you can come for lots of bud pics, along with (hopefully) lots of debates and info on various harvesting/curing/trimming methods- from 24hrs darkness b4 harvest, to cutting off fan leaves. We have now entered into our continous harvest faze, we will be harvesting a new plant about every 10 days. Rating: 5
