have you read all the books so far mate? i thought the books where much better but i downloaded the audiobook. roy dotrice reads most of them and he does different voices for the charectors
i read all the books in less than 2wks mrt best books ive ever read and also the 1st sci-fi or whatever u would call em kinda books ive ever read, i carnt praise them enough or thank a riu friend of mine mantizm for reccomending then to me even tho i fink i said 2/3 times that i dont fink its my cup of tea lol i was and am hooked just waiting for the next book cause it aint finished yet, amazing reads although i will say i had a go at the audio books 1st and didnt like the voice of the person reading them much better reading them yourself m8.

Lmao yorkie lad im a man that does shit not one that says it does work lmfao top the fuckers as much as u like believe me i get more from lst or supercroppin than i would if i topped !! Why is this!! av u the answer for this???????? Wen you ve mastered a strain come back tell me that toppin gets u more lmfao and to say u get the same size cola than you do wen untopped is fuckin childish lad no1 on the planet could say that as the cut the main tip off ya mad cunt !! Proffessor my arse lmfao rofl and yes i read those a few yrs back did i learn anythin?? No
haha educate your selfs dont talk wet lad go on uncle b's toppin thread an post "if i top above the 2nd node say the 10th ill end up with 20 colas the same size as the main cola right?" an see how many experinced growers say your wrong they get smaller once you go over 4 colas i proved it to myself also with the SLH once you go over on youve got loads of colas yes they all think there the main cola but never get as big cos all energy is more spead out like i said every fucker would do it its a no brainer.

ps ill bet you owt you want that every cola on them of yours dont end up as fat the main would have an you end up with popcorn low down unless you go vertical.
Yorky go on uncle bens thread that uni bollox info you posted has been pasted an requoted many a times on therr every fucka knows it but every1 on there knows its bollox cos hundreds of growers have tried it. as soon as you start to toppin over 2nd node colas start gettin slighty smaller till your at like a good side cola size if mr proffrsser is right then every fucka would grow big plants 20 nodes snip top an get 40 colas the same as the main cola would have been, with no matter about light? wed all be swimmin in bud.
If either of you paid attention instead of jumping in with both feet assuming you know what you are talking about you would understand I have NOT topped my plants, I have removed the apical tip which is something entirely different.

Topping is a technique that forces the plant into producing multiple main stems all showing apical dominance.
I have removed the apical tip in late veg so the plant no longer has a "highest point" thus distributing the indole-3-acetic-acid (IAA) auxin evenly across the plant.

The main bud on this plant is NOT that size because it's closer to the light source,it's because that's where the most amount of IAA is produced (in the apical tip).

If I remove that apical tip bud altogether then you will see that the now top buds are all pretty much the same size.

(This is the same shape that my plants are now,before flowering.)

Because the plant doesn't have an apical tip it CAN'T have a single main bud, thus making ALL the top tips the main ones producing an equal amount of IAA and yield buds of an equal size.

It's a very simple concept that has been scientifically proven over 70 years ago, I can't explain it any simpler and if you don't understand it now you never will.

and whats all this i keep reading bout you smoking? thought u gave up years ago m8?
Me lary hahaha na lad was just tryin to put him right as instead of readin books and shit i try shit myself and rightly so like i said i ve done around 20+grows experimentin each technique and lst and supercroppin is the only way you ll gain in yeild tbh lst takes to long so i prefer supercroppin as it strenghens each shoot u do it to + its less hassle than fuckin around with string and shit ;-) toppin will get u the same yeild but with more buds as pukka said the same as fimming does the only technique i av nt tried is scrog as i av to move my shit around to get to feed em and tend to em :-)
Me smokin neva hahaha na lad i have a joint now and then wen i throw 1 out its becomin a regular thing tho but ill nip it in the bud sooner rather than later hahaha

its all abit not needed yeah i dont doubt u may get that extra bit of yield out the plant but i could chuck up pics of many a untouched plant that many more have asked has it been topped,fimmed,scrogged when its had fuck all done to it..............

but imo which aint scientic or shit topping will just leave u with the same amount of bud just spread out to smaller tops instead of that main cola, i personaly think its pointless with a good strain but what do i no im just a vodka swilling fatman lmao

I have just explained the difference between topping and removing the apical tip Ched but your arrogance really knows no bounds.

I'll bow to your superior knowledge when you've got a Ph.D. in biochemistry mate.

all i will say yman is the plant in the pic looks to be 3-5oz max and knowing your veg times that i have had many a bigger plant in less veg time, but i dont doubt for a minute what u say is scientifically true.......

No, I am correct;) I agree in that it's all about how a plant distributes auxins.:) Absolutely nowt wrong with that lad, lol.

Only my current grow has had long veg,other than me moving grow locations 4 times in about 6 months thus dragging it out I need big yield because I'm splitting the crop with my helper.

The plant in that pic stands 35 inches from the top of the pot and yielded just short of 4oz after a month cure,it was flipped 12/12 when it stood 15 inches from the top of the pot.

If you notice it only has about 10 nodes.
