Bagseed most likely a landrace strain.
And how much longer should I wait before topping I’ve been told 4th pair of leave
There is no strict rule. Learn about your strain, experiment and read FAQs…
Is pinching the stem really good to help strengthen it and increase the nutrient lines it
Do you mean pinching like in FIM technique?
I was reading it earlier but I can’t find it agine you squeeze the main stem to crush the walls not to snap it but just Enuf to fell it cave in then 3 days later you do the other side of the plant and after so long the plant becomes harder like wood
The fimming was the topping I asked how long I should wait earlier I’m gonna run a test I topped one plant today now I’m gonna wait to top another then not top the 3rd at all
Crushing the stem a.k.a. Cropping. Yes that works. Not my favourite, but worth a try. Don’t be afraid to experiment and see for yourself,
OK thanks for the help
Today’s a hot one that’s for sure
Topping successful
So far looking good…
Maybe you could consider using proper rich soil next time… plants would benefit from it.
I think that it is too rocky …
This was cropped and tied. All of this slows the plant down in veg. I do it because i can, (have the time) and i don’t like twine and nets in my way. Like @LemonadeJoe said experiment and don’t be afraid to mess up. That is how you learn.
The rocks I added on the surface for stability and filtration and all the small pebble looking things are the perlite just looks rocky lol
