Did you also prune a good amount of fan leaves and other foliage just leaving the nugs exposed? If so, lemme know your success with that. I'm having some thoughts of pruning some foliage in my tent to increase light penetration through the canopy to lower bud sites.thanks jhod and 400aZ...400aZ, I topped my plants using the FIM method and then proceeded to do LST(Low Stress Training)...there is a good tutorial on both FIM and LST under the Advanced Marijuana Cultivation forum...FIMming with M Blaze and Low Stress Traing (LST) Guide...these two methods are the way to go, together they give you the same result as doing a SCROG (Screen of Green)...
i would not suggest doing that until your buds are done swelling and damn near at the very end- your fan leaves are the ones you need to soak up all the "rays" cutting them off is like taking your solar panels down and wondering why your batteries are no longer charging, your best bet is lst and at most "folding" some of your bigger leaves behind other ones to expose lower branches, also supplemental lighting on the sides and underneath is they way to go- NEVER CUT OR PRUNE UNTIL THE END (within reason)Did you also prune a good amount of fan leaves and other foliage just leaving the nugs exposed?
