Can you top/fimm a side branch?

I'm pretty sure femming IS topping a side branch

 

Subscribed and a bump cuz I was wondering the same thing.

 

Probably. Try it. It won't kill your plant, that's for sure.

 

Yes you can top or fim a side branch. Topping makes 2 new shoots, where fimming, if done correctly makes 4.

See the guide here:

I don't think it would make much of a difference unless you were doing a ScrOG.

 

it can be done to any growing tips,anywhere on the plant

i've had up to 9 new branches shoot from 1 fim'ed top(only on 1 plant).i usually get between 3&7 new tops when i fim.did a purple kush in 5gal. bucket,fim'd at 18" then every couple weeks till flowering i fim'd every tip on the plants main branches & tops.the result was almost a pound of big,tall,fat buds from a plant 5' wide &`5'6"tall including the bucket.

 

Whoa. Do you happen to have any pics of that monster plant?

 

unfortunetly no they were on my cell when it fell in riverbut my buddy grew one of the same clones in the ground.her sister was 5' tall,7'across & 14' in diameter w/buds the size of his forearmsright at 2 poundsi think there's pics in his gallerysearch jbyrd's 3200watt perpetual organic growlots of good info there & good people too see u there

 

Awesome! Just found the link: jbyrd Gallery - Marijuana Pictures, Photos & Videos - Grasscity.com Media Gallery

 

Now THAT is a plant. *whistles*

 

5 feet? This guy had plants outgrow his carport! lol

 

has anyone seen side branches grow from the nodes on side branches?

 

Awesome post, Respect! My question is does bending work better than fim tec on certain plant strains that have more of a main cola style such as grape ape compared to cherry kush wich is much more branchy and spread out? Fim referring to cherry kush being bore branchy, and bending referring to Grape ape strain being more main kola style? Does it make a difference of should I Stick with Fim Tecnique/Topping All Around?

 

I got some serds from colorado and.i topped it and for a few days it didnt grow but one morning i look and i see some leaves developing and with in a few days it grew almost 7 inches but if i was you id top it and wait a few days for it to heal then start some lst then top side branches and just keep alternating. Get a nice bushy plant that grows nice buds

glad thats settled

 

nope. Fim means "fuck, I missed" in reference to topping. Please try researching before you make yourself look so stupid. Thanks.
