FIMMING EXPERIMENT

I decided to post a little experiment that I started about 1 week ago... I am trying to make (4) tops on one plant at a young age; 2nd set of nodes. I took a razor blade and cut all the new growth off of the stem and leaft (4) leaves in total plus the fan leaves. I am guessing that the new growth will make (4) tops on this one plant.

:leaf:I will be posting pics every week as the experiments takes way:leaf:

I just recentley done this, My plant started to grow 4 tops, but 3 of them out grew the other 1 by like 4-5 inches, so it does work just when i did it it just stunted on 1 of the 4 main colas

This is phrased really wierd, so it's tough to follow - but are you talking about topping?

And by the way... I looked at Uncle Bens Topping and the plant goes from being topped to a mature female budding plant... NO REAL HELP... I want to see it as it grows... How do I know that The plant that was topped is the same mature plant in the set of pics... I DONT... I will have alot of photos so people can see what happens in the plants life...

I am thinking about making (4) tops and then doing the same technique to the (4) tops and make (16) tops...

Is this possible???

Yes it is possible but it wouldnt be worth it, i did that on my first plant and it just creates smaller colas, and it also deformed on 2 of the points where i topped it, i would just keep it to 4 tops

If i were you id just take the four colas and foucs on those. But if you want to scrocg then thatd be a good idea to keep topping. And yea FIM isnt forum lingo its just what its called

You won't get 4 colas with your technique. Go back and read UB's post.

You are the one that needs to read. You are topping and randomly trimming, nothing else. UBs tech actually redirects the plants growth hormones to get a prescribed response.
