As for how and when...

I use Al B. Fuct's Method...
and thats why i love you!

Trim the lower 3rd and anything that grows more than one inch... no branches allowed... at cloning and again by week 2 or 3 of 12/12...

Some strains do really really well... some not...
my sweet god only needed it one time at week 3 but my widow gets it twice. especially in the aero/nft. my current run has been trimmed 3 times in 6 weeks and 5 days....but in all fairness. i did discover a hell of a light leak.
Bugs really knows this stuff.. he's experimented quite a bit with one vs the other... if I am not mistaken...

In all honesty... I think it is a preference of styles.. what works better with YOUR hand...
i can grow white flies and powdery mildew better than any of you fuckers!!!:bigjoint:

But I am a FIRM BELIEVER that buds grown in the shade are of lower quality/weight...
AMEN BROTHER!!!!!! sing it from the mountaintops

first off........fdd said gypsy had a "very nice grow" everyone. so, look out for the ego trip. :-P

it's what happened to me! al was all.....polishin my balls one day and it went straight to my head. hell i'm still recovering
Yeah... but you started by being all WEED BARON and shit...

Here I am .. a year later and still calling myself a newb...:eyesmoke: notice a difference????:o:-P

Plus... only I know how scared I am of killing those poor plants...

Everyday I wake up expecting DOOM AND GLOOM..

LUCK alone has made that grow possible...

Any skills I claim... have to be limited to reading the pH and PPM gage on the dashboard...


gypsy will dig up pics for you if he feels like it.
Wish more people had a key to AL's galleries....;-)

Hey alb,
sorry to bug ya but just to clear things up,
Heres a pic of one of my plants at 2-3 weeks flower I trimmed the bottom 1/3





I drew some red lines where i SHOULD cut as well? If i cut all these branches off that are longer then 1 in. I will just have basically the main stem ( hopfully thats what i want?)



Thanks a whole bunch

Mr. Ganja




Perfect. :smile: Well illustrated. That's exactly what you want. Now, get about 45 of those under a 1000 & call me in 8 weeks. :wink:








and i trim at 2 weeks and again at 4 weeks. bottom 1/3-ish is gone and anything that tries to grow out and away from the mainstalk gets "dealt with, tuite suite"
Yeah.. like he says...:razz::eyesmoke::weed:

Ok so leave the top 3 to 4 knods? Do The cloas actually get larger than not trimming? So they don't get trimmed off right at the steam, it looks like I leave A little stub of the off shoot's?

ok so take them off right at the steam! sweet, I can't wait to give it A try! Do you top them at all to stunt vertical growth?

Well... I have cut them RIGHT AT THE STEM... but I have also left a "nub"

In the cases where I left the "nub" I ended up with with some smaller "golfball" sized nugs...

But I gotta say nothing compares to the top cola of a "truely stripped" lollipop...

As for topping... that is not a good way to control height...

I recommend you do that by appropriate sized clones...

Sativas usually 3x in size while the Indicas 2x in size...

At least that has been MY experience with the strains I have.. which are mostly bagseed...

Have you ever read Al B. Fuct's threads...

Get a harvest every 2 weeks

A batch of clones in rockwool

https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/10004-how-not-grow-dope.html

Everything I know and have done in my grow has come 100% from his threads...

His illustrations alone answer 75% of the questions...

See my gallery for pics of the op in action as well as pix of clones in rockwool cubes and clonebox details.
I followed his recipe with GREAT success from day one...

I started with 1x 600w and grew progressively until I achieved the same exact results he did.. except I used 4x 600w instead of 2x 1Kw

There are quite a few grows doing Single cola SOG with 400w and getting AWESOME results...:clap:

Have you seen Xare's?

Flowering day 33:













Here is the Veg Chamber:

On the right of this pic you see a basil clone in hempy and my mini bubble cloner with 4 cuttings in it.

Its just another 2 liter with an airstone in it. I have the cuttings held up by a piece of Styrofoam.






Update Day 62 of Flowering:








Checking Trichs of another plant day 62:

That is great! I have heard about al but never read anything! Thanks I will check it out, everything else I do great just was nervous about going to far on trimming.

you're missing a great, educational informational thread.


out of all the threads on RIU to read....i would probably recommend AL's thread first


its so much knowledge in that thread....talks about everything and not just SoG techniques...

FLIR, how to 'use' your money, etc etc
