don't worry about the yeild just try and get them to harvest. I'm 13 wks into flowering and really getting sick and tired of babying them.
dont worry bout yeild?? sik of babying them??? thats what growing is all about... its not about gettin free smoke, its about gettin the most quality and quantity u can... its a hobby and the most satisfying thing is the end resault and acomplishments u made, not the $100 u saved by not having to buy weed for a few weeks.. when ur done, u should feel proud of ur work and what u did to achieve that... not to feel overwilemed or inconveinenced by it... its a reflection of u... they r like ur children.. u want to raise them the best u can, rite?? if u do feel unsatisfyed with yeild or quality, then u should have atleast learned/learn what went wrong and what can be done next time around to give u beter resaults... its a learning process that can be rewarding mentaly and financialy
you have to keep a couple things in mind when vegging. how much headroom do i have, and what is the wattage of my light? if you let them get too tall for your area in veg, then in flower you'll really be in trouble. you can always tie down, but it's better to plan ahead, and flower early if you have height limitations. you also don't want your plants getting too tall with a 400 watt light. each light wattage will only penetrate so far into the canopy. if a 400 watt light is only penetrating 6" into the canopy, there's no sense in growing a 3 ft. plant.
thats y u suppercrop or LST... it will get those buds at the bottom mature and keep ur hights low with an even canopy with all ur bus, not jus the tops
yes buds come from each node...topping is very easy.. its jus cuttin the top down to make it smaller and the nodes below ur cut grow into ur tops/branches so now u have 2 or 4 instead of 1... suppercropping is the way to go... by doin this u can turn every bud at the nodes all the way down ur branch to become tops as u will see in my pics...its bending ur plants down/sideways so they cover ur grow surface area and open ur plant up so all ur buds see more light... it creates a sea of gren affect alowing light to penatrate every bud... heres a link to help u understand it... any QnA imaginable is on it.... and heres my p pics to show what u r trying looking to achive... there is 12 experimental SOG clones in the corner that u can see.. the rest is 7 plants that r about 18 inches high... with out doin this they would be a bout 30 inches high and the buds at the base woulda nvr sen the light of day and woulda been bumfluff..
npz'... good luck!!!
