question about plant size

[YungBud]

keep ur lights low enuf ur plant doesnt have to stretch but not so close they get burnt also u can trim it after awhile to keep it from getting to tall its best to trim then wait awhile for a couple new nodes to grow b4 trimming again, the best thing to do with ur lights is to allow them to grow on almost 24-0 or 18-6 or watever u choose until u get the height u desire then switch to veging stage which is 12/12
ne more ?s just let me kno ill check bak n c how things r going

you can top your plant while it is young. growfaq. sounds perfect for you.

 

[poutineeh]

a plant will double in height during flowering, mind you

 

[YungBud]

yes thats tru but if u start the flowering at the rite time then u can predict fairly close to wat ur plants height is gunna b

 

[genfranco]

early topping is awesome..

lol... its all about how you grow..yes strain is important... but ultimately that is all based on a few things..

1 veg time.
2 nutrition
3 environment
4 strain specific characters (phenotypes)

allot of people on here will say ..

y are you asking questions in my thread? make a new one lol... also thanks for help everyone... appreciate it

 

[dhhbomb]

u can topp which means that u cut off the main cola or u can lst which means u tye down the top so that the sides grow in which will give u a more bushy plant

 

[poutineeh]

after doing LST and seeing how easy it is without shocking the plant, i vote for that. if you tie the main cola, all the side ones turn essentially into main colas instead of just getting 2 or 4 with trimming

 

[Hasheesh]

yeah my friend told me about that i just didnt kno the term was "LST"

well yeah but i didnt start growing yet but when i do i will

 

[genfranco]

i think i will try lsting some time..for know i just dont want the extra time and i have plenty of height... I think for next your outdoors ill start lsting the clone... How long do you think before the side shoots establish as main stems? Meaning until they fatten up and grow... I have heard of people slting for a whole year to get a decent 5 foot bush...for know topping or better yet fimming is what i do.

 

[YungBud]

i would say anywhere from 4-8 weeks b4 u get good growth on the side shoots
