My first top.

Still unsure of the sex of this bag seed first grow, but practice is experience! I watched some videos, Sterilized some scissors, and went to surgery on my first baby. I've talked about some LST as well, but as a first time parent I'm still nervous.

what you feeding ?

Seaweed and alfalfa extracts help with topping a lot along with b12 and b1

triacontanol as a foliar feed can practically topp a plant without cutting it but when you do Fim it just right they`ll go crazy

Looks like it`ll top nice then you can remove all the lower growth that`s not getting fat in a few weeks

Everybody's scared to touch their plants in the beginning. Give it a year and you'll be man-handling those bitches like they owe you money. Looks good man.

Just the GH trio at the moment, I've got some super thrive too which I'm told only to really use when transplanting.

It's in a gallon planter with FFHF soil. I'm actually going to my brick and mortar store tomorrow after work for some better light hangers, some clone gel, more soil and a bigger pot. Is there anything that's not super expensive supplement wise(or anything else) that i should look to buy?

Yeah get pure Triacontanol as a powder and mix it with alcohol, 50ppm to 100ppm is all you need in a foliar feed, nothing else I`ve ever used made plants grow and bush as much

1 gram will last you ages I buy 4 to 20G at a time cheap and keep it in the fridge

or get some seaweed extract most places sell their own brand or a local brand saves paying out for a fancy label

my foliar feed right now just consists of a little green spray bottle with PH'd purified water in the AM before work and the PM before i go to bed. How does one mix up a feed? What % alcohol? mix with how much water? sorry for all the questions, but im trying to sponge as much as i can!

Well, I am currently growing 2 gurlz...I topped one (Barneys Farm LSD) at 6 days old and the other (Barneys Farm Violator Kush) at 8 days. Both are being grown in FFHF the soil I have always and will always use. They are 34 days old now. I have topped each one about 5 more times since the first. If you want too see them check my journal in the link below.

Good Luck and Great Growz

I normally take 20 to 100 mg of Triacontanol and add 10 to 20ml of pure alcohol to it and shake it up then add it to water along with whatever I`m feeding, normally wetting agent, fulvic acid and halo works but anything with a bit of iron or copper seems to help it get in even just with tap water and wetting agent it`d get into the plant, that`s to make 500ml to 1L

Seems to be recovering from surgery quite well. No drooping, still perky. I picked up some goodies today!

-Some clone gel and a little rapid rooter dome thing. I have an entire black bag of seeds I've picked out over the years, so I picked out 5 of the best looking seeds with "volcano" and rounded texture. I know sexing from seed is BS but for karma sake I experimented anyways.

-I got pointed in the direction of "bush Doctor" kelp me kelp you seaweed feed suppliment. ( which I think ill add between feeding and watering, Feed-Water-kelp-water-Feed ect...)

-Some fancy new light hangers so I can stop panicking over the thought of my old rigged up yarn ties breaking and crashing. Not to mention its adjustable so i lowered the light a bit!

-A bigger pot (3 gal) and some more FFHF soil for when i transplant.

Some pictures of the setup!

The more reading i do the more i see that the bush doctor can just be mixed in with my regular feed.

Does anyone have any experience with it?
