The process is simple, and is adapted from a standard horticutlural technique known as "girdling" a plant. To girdle a plant, wait until it is in flower, but before it has started to produce the red hairs? characteristic of full maturity. Girdling works much better with Sativa plants than with Indica, because the blooming prattern of Sativa is continuous, whereas Indica tends to bloom in successive flushes. Using a very sharp, clean blade, simply cut in a full ring around the plants main stem about 12" above ground level. Make this cut a shallow one, severing just the out 1/8" or so of the plant stem. Make a second cut fully around the stem just below the first cut and…

I was going to do a scrog but am trying this instead . Will it increase my yield by letting light to the lower buds? It is sort of using the scrog method but without the screen Sick and tired of only getting about 3 OZ out of my cupboard due to the lower buds being nothing http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v411/coach1/scrogxx003.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v411/coach1/scrogxx002.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v411/coach1/scrogxx004.jpg

I cloned 24 plants about 7 weeks ago. I only needed 12, But I cloned 24. I was going to pick the best 12 and ditch the worst 12. Problem is they all turned out GREAT!. I couldn't bring myself to destroy any of them, so I veged all 24. Now that they're 20" tall I'm going to put 12 into the flowering room. Is there someway I can keep the secong lot of 12 at 20" for the next 8 weeks, so I can flower them next?. For example, If they grow 3"/week, can I just keep trimming them back 3" each week?. I think this is called tipping. Where you cut one growing tip and it bevomes 2. Is there a limit to how often I can do this?. How much can I trim each time?. If the plants veg fr…

Hi peepz. I've got 2 3x2m rooms that I will be flowering in (DWC) and was wondering if there's any point in growing SCROG style, or if trees will be just as productive? There's about 7 foot to the ceiling, so height isn't too much of an issue. Lights will be horizontally mounted, 2400W per room, and was hoping for 12 plants per room. Does this sound about right, or am I cramping them a bit much? Strain will be Celtic Stone, if that helps. If I was to scrog, it would be like the tutorial with a screen integrated into each bucket, so it wouldn't be too much trouble moving plants to get to each one... What do you guys think? Cheers for the help!
