i think it would help in certain situations like low humidity otherwise your good without it, ive done about 4 harvests without spraying at all during flowering and they did fine.

Looking pretty! 
How much more can you expect from a topped plant? I mean, as long as they have the same amount of roots I suppose they take in the same amount of nutes... sooo the same amount of bud...? Idk 
it just seems wierd

I'll tell you, timers are a life saver. That is until the power goes out and you gotta reset them bitches.

Yeah it was completely my fault tho cause I run all my lights / fans 24 hours, I just turned the fan off to take pictures then forgot too put it back on! Luckily it was 95 at the very top of the cabinet so it shouldn't of upset them too much!

props on the dyna gro! lol i love that stuff, you know it only makes about a 650ppm solution if you follow the directions
(which i didnt do at first lol) but i think thats the key, it supplies everything the plant needs at a low ppm so it wont burn it. genius! lol

well, my veg batch consists of 1tsp (5ml) per gallon "gro", 3/4 tsp per gallon bcuzz root, and 1/4 tsp per gal pro-tekt,and my waters t.d.s. is about 250 ppm before i add nutes, and about 7.0 in ph.after adding nutes to the hard water, the ph levels out to about 5.8-6.0 .when i ad the nutes to R.O water it becomes very acidic and i just compensate with a little extra pro-tekt because it is very much a base. i could up the gro to 2-3 tsp per gal if i wanted to get aggressive, but i did that last time and it cause some nute burn, i said forget the directions and just set my ppms at 1300, but learned the hard way that it was too much. from what ive heard since then, is 600- 900 ppm is optimal for all vegging plants even seedlings, even though i try to cut it down to about 400 ppm when im cloning.

Wow that sounds a lot more technical than I can be bothered too get into! Haha maybe in the next grow I'll look into nutes more. For now iv been pouring a tablespoon or 2 of 'gro' and 'bloom' straight in my watering can.....
Nothing bads happened so fuck it! Lol cheers for the info mate, glad too see ur grows going well!

how big is your watering can? and how often do you feed them? too much nutes can cause lockup and burning, but if your flushing it well with water in between feedings id say youre probably ok...

topping the plant makes all the side branches grow out, in my case if i didnt top it the plant it would be hitting the ceilling of my cab,because i only have 21" max inside the cab.for me topping and spreading the plant out on the screen gets me about another 10 grams of bud because it opens the plant canopy up and the buds that would usually be shaded now get full light. but i strongly believe that your maximum yeild output depends mostly on your lighting, not quantity of plants under the light. 100 plants under a 150w light will yeild the same amount as one plant under the same light.make sense?
