Tips for flowering... anybody???

hey guys,
im a couple weeks into flowering stage (white widow) and the buds are starting to develop.

i know alot of you guys have been growing for years, sooo just wondering any tips that you could give me would be great

ive herd of some people putting the lights 8 on 16 off during the last week to put a little stress on the plant and add some more resin.. is this true,, anybody try it

Stress is bad. I would just do 12/12 all the way through. Some guys run 13 hours or 14 hours of light for the last 10 days two weeks. Keep in mind that in the outdoors it rarely hits 12/12. Plants will flower fine at 13 hours of light. Don't get too fancy and flush that girl good.

stay at 12/12 you dont want to take forever to harvest. I top mine at 2 weeks into flowering and this is how they turn out.

the one on the left is not toped. I pulled more on the ones that were toped

Generally topping/pruning should be done in the veg cycle as doing it in the flower cycle can hurt yields. As far as tips go, fertilize your plants twice and water once, repeat. Follow the directions on the label and don't be afraid to cut back the recommended dose by 1/2 until you get a feel for your ladies.

Oh, and don't fudge around with your light cycle trying to pump out more resin. 12/12 is just fine.

i wouldn't top at this stage. at week 5 you can use a pk booster which really helps.
