i'v got three nice clone moms that are about 3 weeks into veg. they are about 8" tall...side branching has just begun. would now be a good time to top these girls?
I take it the moms are strictly for clonning? Personally I would try 2 Fimm, then later point top... DO you count 4 weeks from when clones took roots, or when clones have been transplanted to their container? Anyways, topping at 4 weeks is not a bad Idea if you have a bushy plant in mind
i'm counting from when they got potted. i'm starting to think it's a good idea to do it....i'm gonna sleep on it.
If you're grooming it as a mom, one advantage of early pruning is that each snip yields two shoots. Later, as the shoots begin to alternate sides the game changes slightly.
also - my girls were alternating shoots from the start. i got 8+ on each at this point....in the very early stages of growth. i added more lights today to help move those along. i'm also thinking that side branching will increase with some topping?
yeah i'm getting that feeling too. rock! i just sampled a little bit of the goods from the moms. shit's fantastic...tasted like plant mostly but still had a little flavor...i'm high as hell!
