from the experance of having to keep trimming off side branches to stop my sogs crouding themselves out. yeald was down by about 25% on that grow.
now i am not saying that a plant that has showen sex like this cant b soged all i am saying is if u intend to sog or u want to grow a donkey dick then a plant that has been alterd to grow bushy or lots of tops is not the best choice. just like u wudnt top plants for sog.
now im not tryin to knock ur thread, i think its a crackin peace of work. iv been taking clones from flowering seed plants for ages now since i found this out by accident and if a bushy plant is what u want then this is a good way, but i have found them harder to clone and in some cases yeald has been down compared to topped unflowerd plants, sometimes its been up tho so i put this down to strain more than anything else. veg time for me so far has allways been less tho so i find this makes up for the slighty smaller yeald when it does happen. i have had plants so bushey from doin this that they have crowed themselves out and i have had to trim whole branches off to stop the streach, annoying when u gotta do it in flowering.
i do think this method has a big place in growing but its not the best thing to do with every plant grown in every style. at the moment i have a plant taken from a flowering plant and at every node its splitting into 2 more branches, this is happening about every 1/4inch. this was my fave plant that iv been growing since last year, i had a few probs and had to go get some cuts off a plant that i had given away cus i lost my (unflowerd) mother, the plant i took the cuts from had only been in 12/12 for 9 days. im now spending my days hacking the crap outta these cuts in the hope it will carm down otherwise its back to the seeds for me, even cuts taken from these plants branch at every node. i really dont want to grow just popcorn so if i dont get it back the way it was then that plant is gone forever.
