hi, this is my first in the ground outdoor grow. I've been pruning them so much. Now they are flowering and sooooo big I'm so overwhelmed. Trying to create privacy fenceing because they are getting over 6 ft tall. Can I prune the tops if they are a week into flowering?
I'm still trying and it just keeps saying it can't upload them. Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
I understand your concerns, but you really don't want to cut the tops out of the plants. Just take some twine and bend the top down so it's not so tall and it will keep on growing. It's their nature to grow toward the sun, so you might have to readjust several times until harvest. Honestly, I would be a lot more worried about smell than height. About the last month in flower as they load up with resin, the smell gets intense. Even a single plant in bud can throw out some smell for a huge distance with a slight wind. They're kinda hard to disguise outside once they get deep into flower simply due to the smell alone. But you can pull the tops over to make them less tall without cutting tops out of the plant. That's the best part of the whole plant. TWW
I'd avoid pruning any plant this late in the year hide- conceal- camo- is good so is some patience ..lol good luck
