What do you call this? Look at me, i have weed coming out my ears and i still need to ask dumb questions
like "how do i top my veg plants" i wanna get a handle on my plants, they are sooo big by the time they go into flower. These veg plants have pretty thick stems and the asymetrical branching, it seems like it might be detrimenal if i try to top them .

I top most all of mine at least 2 times so I have 4 or more main tops. Just cut above a node so that the 2 branches above the big fan leaves are still there. those 2 branches will now grow up rather than out. So then you have 2 main top branches now rather than one. If you look at some of my outdoor pix there are bushes that are only 3ft tall and 4ft wide cause Ive topped them so much they stay small but bushy. There are many arguments of topping and I have tried most ways and still top mine. You dont get as many huge big buds but more smaller med size buds. If you have height issues top them. If still in veg it wont hurt them at all. It also redirects growth hormone to the lower branches when you cut the top ones. hope this helps:weed:
 
STINKBUD on the ph subject mine is about 7.1 I am ordering ph down as I type but is there anything I can use till it gets here in about a week. Will it hurt anything its that high rt now? Im only in veg rt now anyway. How harmfull is this? Could I just add say lemon juice (acid) for now? or just wait till it gets here. :leaf:Got all my nuits yesterday. You could see them grow 1/4" in a matter of over night.:-P
thanks for all the help:weed:

Hey Stinkbuds, I like the setup. I'm wondering what type of timer you use (brand or perhaps where to purchase) It seems the timers capable of doing one minute on 5 off are not super easy to find. I'll continue to look and hope for a reply. Nice thread by the way.

Light color totes let light through = growth of funk
didnt know if it mattered ( i think it does) and higher temps cause funk too. just figured more info might help.

I know Ive been watching his grow from start. I top my indoor too.
still not sure were your getting master grower at. Ive grow/experimented alot over the years but nothing serious till these last 2 years. Im growing the stink way also
 
Yo what up andy.. yea man my 3 current flower systems are so overgrown, (NOT A BAD THING AT ALL) but alot of the undergrowth buds are under developed, and it would be ashame to lose all that bud. So ive had to stray kinda from the 3 week cycle to let the lower buds catch up. Which brings an interesting question, " will the underdeveloped lower buds mature during flush with no nutes?)
I hope stink can answer this for me.

This next batch i want to tame down a bit. And get things under controll. I just might have to limit the # of my plants in the flower system so that they wont turn into a jungle again, so that all the buds will get light.

Hey Andyman, you happen to have a thread involving how to make your timer. Thanks for the links by the way, now at least i can just buy one.

I plan on putting one in sometime. it cost about the same to buy one made as it cost to make mine. but mine has parts i can change if go bad rather than just pitching it. with the contactor built with mine I can run multiple pumps without overloading it too:bigjoint:

When you harvest only cut half the tree down. leave the lower half to develop more. Like when stinkbud says to leave a little left when you have a plant not done. to keep it alive so the roots dont die since they all get entertwined. just my 2 lincolns:leaf:
 
guys, need some help with sprayers
according to the plans the sprayers are facing up 90 at degrees on the main line
the line is then placed at the bottom corner of the fence tube
where do the sprayers end up being located inside the tube,
a sprayer directly underneath each plant, or one between two plants?

centerd between 2 pots so that one sprayer sprays both pots and the next one sprays the otherside. its the same spacing as the netpots just staggerd inbetween them. hope this helps:bigjoint:
