How much Topping can a plant take.(w/pic)

Homergrower · #1 (**permalink**) 11-26-2006, 06:16 AM

This will be the experiment for these two outdoor bagseed plants.

The one on the right with Stonecutter-Homer is growing slightly slower than the one on the left.

They appear to be different strains as the one on the left has short fat leaves and the one on the right has long slender leaves.
I've been growing since beginning of October which is spring where I am.

So the plan is to top these two as much as possible, which should make them into two large bushes by the end of summer. Both plants have already been topped on all new growth 3 times already and lots of new sprouts.

Keep watching for updates.
Cheers

Someof the bottome leaves started to yellow this week, so i'm pruned them off and started them on some light feeding.

The best part of this grow are the Homer figurines.

you can top (so the "experts" say) 2 times, i top once creating the Y and then on each leg of the Y i top again from there i only fimm.

Homergrower · #14 (**permalink**) 11-29-2006, 12:28 AM

Well I topped creating 1 x Y branch, then i topped both of them creating 2x Y's off the last one. Then i've already topped again creating 4x Y's off the last 2.... so now i have a total of eight seperate heads on each plant...
How far can I go. If i keep topping will it just keep dividing.... thus creating more of a bush than a plant.
Opinions please ???

Well chritmas is upon us once again... pulling out the christmas tree and cover it in shit...
here are some pics of the two girls Mary & Jane...

I think i may be growing one indica and one sative... SInce they came from bag seed they could be anything really. But by the look of the leaves and so on.

TOpping is going well, i'm topping and fimming.

Stick around for more simpsons updates.
