Hey everyone, I'm almost at 8 weeks of flower. On day 54 I was bored and wanted to put stress on my plant. I decided to stab the stem with a knife then stick a skewer in it after hearing about this stem splitting technique. If this technique really been around for so long and used across the world then count me in
. This is on the day of stabbing. I'm not counting on this to give me mind blowing results but I thought it would be a fun experiment.

I know it's risky business stressing the plant at this stage but it actually took it very well and showed no signs of slowing growth. It actually looked bigger the next day! I'm not sure if this was all because of the stem splitting but I'm glad I tried this experiment. This plant also responded well to supercropping in early flower. Here's what one of the buds looked like today.

Anyways, I'm planning on taking out the skewer at the end of week 8. I'll post updates.
