Depends on the plant. Those were just topped and a little super cropping, I was expecting them to be short phatty Indicas but goddamn did they leap up like mad things lol. Sats get topped and some branches trained down... It is all about the canopy and planning it out for max tops and also good penetration... Goal is full canopy with enough light no lower nodes to keep herms at bay on Kush crosses and their kin

Now that's surface area! Thought you were a scrogger...

I've noticed a lot of Sats don't like topping. I like to let em go and snip some lower branches lately. I call it dick with groomed balls technique.

Next run will be a SCRoG, as it is a Diesel run. Headwrecker x JosephBX, true Diesel structure already they are going to be fun! I only screen up keepers usually but I have a strong feeling about three of these girls!
The Groomed Balls Technique works insanely well for high plant counts and small pots. If I need to get a lot of plants into a small area it is the only way to do it.
Sats LOVE being topped, but wait for the 5th node. Let them reach structural maturity first, if you top them too soon it hardens up the shoots a bit. A little trick that helps is supercropping right below where you topped, the instant you top it. Make sure it knows auxins are needed elsewhere ;)

Fucking A bro. Health and beauty. I love it. You are at the top of your game. With the insane outdoor run and now this.....I am just so happy to see such wonderful plants.
Thanks bud :) Got some good momentum so going to run the motors till there is no more fuel. That might take a while hehehehehe...

Lol your a hoot red. My favorite red headed hermaphradite ever.

The plants look great Hamish. I need a t5 to promote some height during veg. The wife doesn't like the power bill either.
If you want some legs on your plants, best is to choose something leggy. OG's, Diesels, Chems. Joseph OG crosses can get nice and tall no problem, you actually have to work hard at keeping them low, which I prefer myself to the Indies that just hug the ground. Leggy Sativas indoors, yeah baby :)

Ham, I'm very curious as to how you maintain that even canopy. When I supercrop, they take off when healed. Do you think you'll have to crop some branches twice?

My ex told her lawyer about my hobby. Can you fucking believe that? Has she lost her mind? She was apart of it for the entire duration of it's existence. Wtf? She watered, cleaned, bought supplies, etc. Are people really this dumb?

It can't get any lower. I would k**l a b***h. I feel bad for you brother. Stay low until this bullshit rides out. There will be better days.

From week 2 of flower I let them go as they want to, at that point every bit of stretch up is a good thing, getting each bud maximum light. Attempting to train after that harms yield big time. More leaves in the bud, less density....

Sounds like she is getting desperate. Desperate = dangerous... You know this is an attempt to get you to leave town right?... So whatever you do, don't hand 'em a victory just to keep a hobby going. Sucks rabid dog nuts.

Would 1/3 cup EWC, 1/2 cup alfalfa meal, 1/4 cup kelp meal, and 2tbl of molasses be a good veg tea recipe? Any suggestions or changes?

Also, how should I tweak this for flowering?

Thanks,
ADT
