I've never seen any stress on my plants when I take them to flower. In fact they go off big time right from the start!

Might I suggest following my directions exactly. Everything is on Page 75.

You need to use my nutrient formula. You will find that organic nutrients are better in every way.
wouldnt it be neat if we could tweak your forumla and actually learn something 2! haha just kidding.

I am using GH 3 part as I feel they are all that I need. I bought some of the botanicare stuff, but never got into it yet. I will give it a go next time if these transfers die off...though i think its obvious that your nute formula has little to do with transfer stress.

I went to get my MMJ license renewed yesterday. I found out that they changed the law so you can only have a total of 4 patients per grow site.

Before it was 4 patients per provider. So I was able to put two of my patients in my wife's name. That way I could provide for more than just my limit of 4.

Now I have to either find another place besides the one I have or drop two of my patients. There is no way I can afford another grow area.

So now I have to pick which two patients I have to drop. I'm crying as I type this:cry:. I just don't know how I'm going to do it.

I really care about these people...

I can tell you one thing though. My patients won't go without medicine because of some stupid fucking law.

Time to cash in some Karma.
What is the definition of "grow site?" Is it address? If so, you might be able to separate your house in a duplex with address 123 A and 123 B.

I know it's a stretch.

Also, I just picked up the new High Times (I don't really know why, I've been following this thread for months and have read the whole thing). Anyway, because of this thread you've helped many more people than you could have ever helped by yourself.

thanks lionsroor, how long should i run the clearex for before going back to nutes?
Check your PPM's as you flush with Clearex - they will rise as the salts are leeched and rinsed. Depending upon your salt build up - 2 or 3 hours seems to get the job done. More saline solutions will likely require more time. When the PPM's stop rising, the salts have been removed.

I just read that Stink used Clearex for 24 hours on a final flush - before flushing with Sweet for 6 days.

Hey Stink - sorry to hear about your caregiver issue. You always do the right thing... we all know you have some good karma coming your way. I am confident you will find the answer.

Wow! I just picked up the June HT! Speechless - amazing... Congrats, Stink! The pics are beautiful and reading your info in that format is such a thrill - the glossy magazine and all with the "Stink Method"... 1 copy so far. Wife wants 5! (she's like that! - she loves your inspiration and positive, nice, attitude too - the world can't get enough of that!).

Thanks for for turning all of us on!

Sucks man. But keep up the good work and keep racking up that karma no matter what the whim of the legislature is today. You've done amazing good work in your grow and on this thread. God love you brother! :joint:

The fact is, if you grow from seed you are going to have one hell of a big harvest.

Even if you take them into flower now they will still want another extra week or two to start flowering.

Start topping them now. If you don't have your flower system built yet, now is the time.

As soon as you have your fence post system put the plants in and set your lights to 12/12. Be prepared for an extra 2 weeks on top of the normal flowering time.

Plants have to reach a certain maturity before they can start flowering. Just like us..

What you look for is the leaf structure. When the side stems first come out of the main stem they are symmetrical. For every side stem there is another side stem on the opposite side.

Once the plant reaches maturity the side stems will start to grow asymmetrical. One stem will come out and then you will have a gap. Then the other stem will form higher up than the last.

When you see the stems coming out asymmetrical then you know the plant is mature enough to flower.

You will also see pre-flowers form at this time. Time wise you're looking at 6-8 weeks minimum depending on the strain.
Hey Stink, Stinkbuddies,

Questions about topping. I don't want to waste anyone's time, but, could we talk about FIMing or topping? Pros and cons. My plants are 10" started from seed on the 20th of March (4 weeks). Pics below. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks guys/gals.

Those are choice! I like the store you selected it from too! I would love to have those for each res!
LOL... I'm gonna get a couple of these... Thanks :leaf:

GC Hydro has a location about an hour away from me. They are a pretty good store. I didn't like that they won't honor advertised web prices when you walk in... Maybe that is industry wide, but its a new thing for me to comprehend.

The guy that helped me there liked cars & my car so we got along great.. He went to bat for me and got me a good price on the grocheck meter 8-)

Seriously, this thread is long enough without continually getting choked by side questions that are completely OT. He explained very detailed how what he does from cutting to flower. Can we keep the discussion to particulars of his system please? Thank you.

Really?
U mean, thousands upon thousands of forum pages on this site to sift through, not sure that the person answering is somebody who knows what they're doing or a monkey at the keyboard? I am using his design/system. As I'm sure you've noticed, there have been things that have changed, evolved or been suggested that have strayed from the grail. So, to me it makes sense to ask questions on the pages that I've been following. Sorry if I've clogged up the tiny bit of cyberspace here by asking questions to people who have already led me in the right direction on a number of occasions. If you don't like our questions or think they're off topic, don't answer them.

I'm really disappointed. I thought u were better that. Live and learn.
Enjoy your remaining years.

Are you really that selfish? Just fucking WOW! is all I can say to that.
Do you really think everyone else on RIU are just monkeys at the keyboard? Are you really unable to discern whether someone giving advice here knows their shit or not? He was asking about topics that has various opinions and have pages of discussions on those topics alone.

Not only is topping and FIMing in the GrowFAQ but there's a sticky in the Advanced growing section of this site. There are many other people here on this site with many years experience. It only makes sense to ask specific questions to those that have the experience in the area you are asking about. Since SB isn't topping or recommending it, then it follows that he might not have the answers you are seeking.

As someone that had to wade through all of the posts in this thread when you first got here, it should be obvious to you why I'm recommending getting those answers elsewhere. I don't think his question was OT, it was. Do you think it would be okay to ask about a soil grow here?

You might not be concerned with clogging up this 'tiny bit of cyberspace' but others are. I guess you can't accept my polite, gentle request to stay OT but to be disappointed is ridiculous, especially since I wasn't even responding directly to you.

I've tried both but I stick with good old fashioned topping. Just pull the last grow site off of the top.

I've tried the FIM (Fuck I missed) techniques but it seems to give me too many tops. It would work great for a SCROG (screen of green).

By State law I have to keep my plants under 12". So I keep topping them as long as it takes. Sometimes I'll end up with 6-8 big colas.

Actually I do top my plants. I have to keep them under 12" by law.

Your right about this thread becoming huge! I think one of the reasons for the popularity of this thread is the attitude of the people here.

Everyone around here helps each other. Even if the question has been asked a hundred times, many of us will still try to help (again).

It's frustrating to have to read through all the posts but it's worth it in the long run. It's even hard for me to keep up!:roll:

People need to have the freedom to post whatever they want here. I don't want someone not asking a question because they are afraid of being ridiculed.:dunce:

The more you hang out here the sooner you will become a Stinkbuddy. Everyone is welcome. Many of the Stinkbuddies have become good friends. We help each other with more than just growing meds.

Sometimes it's as simple as an online hug. We need a new word for it, how about "cyberhug":mrgreen:.

The StinkBuddies slogan is "Spread the love". No one ever said it would be easy!:peace:

Hey there Stink...hows it going my friend? Man im lovin my new dabney blueberry,,its still has 4 weeks to go and its already packin on huge colas!

I had a quick question; when you hook your AC unit up to your controller, do you un plug the exhaust? I notice the outlet on the controller is for either ac or exhaust.

Another question i had was how much bottom trimming do you do to get such big colas?

I trim the bottom branches.... but i just cant get myself to do to much...and i think if i trimmed more ..my buds would be even bigger. what is your process?
