Since I'm outdoors from the get go, I will plant 2-3 seeds in a pot of the lesser strains. I have to transplant them before they are sexually mature, so I can count on 1 or 2 of them being male most of the time. But when I do end up with 2 females, I just tell them to LOB {Lean Over, Baby}. I'm not a big smoker, so yield is not a big deal to me.
It was basically a way to increase the harvest in a grow with 3 bigger plants in 4gal pots and a bunch of small plants in 2.5gal pots. There's .pics of it in my little grow journal, link in my sig. No more dirt for me for the most part.
Imo fiming was slower than topping and made for less even growth. Lots of nodes from one point seemed more relevant to futher training and not short fast crops aimed at max yeild.
Yeah.. thanks. Thats really an interesting style.. but I'll have to leave it for the day i can make my own seeds. 30 seeds woild kill me to buy now. Aside from that little nugget, this is my first grow using LST and topping ffs.. I have a long way to go..
It's that orange line under each post, Occasional pic of current grow. Out of date but what I was up to the last grow. Brought some of that OG out with me and the guy at the dispensary loved it and a relative of mine who grows commercially, 160 light and 84 light grows. All 1000W HIDs smoked some with me and wants a few clones. Felt good to have people who deal with tons of pot from lots of growers dig my shit.

It wasn't a great grow and I'm going back to mostly DWC to up production. Should be scoring gear like CO2 controller, more lights, another light rail etc and some new genetics. Also getting a decent used car to haul it all back with instead of taking that shitty Greyhound back for 24 hours in hell.
I'm in Kelowna, BC atm and will be heading back to northern Alberta in about a week or so just to clarify the last bit.
Early withdraw on my inheritance is what it is. Was just shopping for a car today in Vernon but found a deal on an '06 Chev Aveo that had just got traded in and will be detailed and serviced/inspected tomorrow. Only 25K km / 15K mi on it. 35-40 mpg. Always been a Chevy guy and for a small car it's got a solid feel and the door shuts like a Chev twice it's size.
Paid under 6 for it. Literally owned by that little old lady who only used it to go to church on Sunday. She had a crippled left arm so there's a squished 4" section of the steering wheel where a suicide knob was so she could steer better. Got them to toss in a pair of real winter snow tires for the front and toss the old ones which were original but fairly worn. Back ones less worn with about 75% left so they are fine. Need that soft rubber for the -20C and lower temps where I live.
I use it was more than topping, it creates way more new growth in my experience as to, topping creat s a funny looking plant lol
