    Strange thing happened when I topped my plant

    So I topped my plant early, to be clear I cut it well below what would have been fimming. Now the two shoots on the side are growing out as expected. But the stalk that I topped is also growing two symmetrical shoots. Now I have 4 mains it appears, I am not complaining but is this normal? Will...

    Grow techniques for a first time grower.

    Should I be doing anything like LST FIMing, topping etc. on my first grow? I’ve done my research but I’m not arrogant enough to think I’m a master grower cause I read a few things on the internet. I plan on starting a thread in grow journals for people to give their input as I go along, catch...

    LST/FIMing 101?

    Hey all! I have some seedlings of varying maturity, but some of them have reached about 6" tall and have 3 sets of leaves so I'm beginning to think about plant training and when/how to do it. My question is, for maximum yields, should I bend the main stalk first and allow multiple shoots to...

    Should I LST/FIM my outdoor clones?

    I'm growing clones in dirt in 10-gallon fabric pots outdoors in northern California — Cookie Glue, Chiesel, Frosting, and Gelato. My first time with clones, and I didn't realize that they grow with alternating nodes instead of paired ones. Each clone has 6-8 growing nodes off the main stem, but...

    Day 22 since seeds were planted. Are my plants ready for FIM/LST training?

    FIMing and Topping Question

    Alright, newb question. Is FIMing and Topping only done to areas of new growth coming off the very top of the main stem, or can you do it to areas of new growth on branches? It's okay to laugh at me.

    Saving leaves on FIM?

    I have experience pruning lots of fruit, vegetables, vines, and trees so learning to prune my baby has required some restraint (I want to prune it to death I am afraid.) I have a good understanding of the nodes/growth tip the difference between topping and fimming- My question is when I FIM why...
