They have been on 12/12 for 4½ weeks. The stretch is over, but the plumping continues. Pinch them how far down? Just pinch the white tip or the whole bud?

basically like that. just google around a little bit, there are plenty of quick guides how to's. pinching in the middle of flowering can cause undue stress and maybe slow it down a little bit, but if it's a healthy plant and a stable strain it should be jsut fine.

If you can tie them down. How much space you got?
Look into bushmaster or top load. It will make them short and stocky.
Your plants are still going to grow taller. Tie it down. Put your tallest on the outside of the garden so you can tie it down towards the light.

Can't tie them down. It's a sea of green and the ocean is 13" away... and rising.

Well i think you should hold off for another week. There is a time frame for harvesting that is usauly 2-7 days for an average indica. It seems like you didnt flush after the 4th week of growth. Or just over fed. They are a little small but im guessing around 7 weeks by the ripeness. You should flushHere's one for you

no.... but your brain is an oval. the earth however does follow an elliptical orbit that looks like an oval maybe that was the information you were trying to convey?... maybe it just came out that way because your so stoned off of your amazing BC bud right?

I have not flushed yet. I started veg around Nov 20. I started flower Jan 1st. Thats 2½ months no flush. What are the symptoms of needing to flush?
Tell me if this is right:
I dump the reservior and clean it, fresh RO water and FloraKleen. 48 hours later dump and clean again. Fresh RO and fresh nutes. Should I add ANYTHING else to the FloraKleen like H2o2?
Then I will do it again for the last 4 days of flower before harvest.
Is that all correct?

seriously man get a second opinion. Is it even possible to get salt build ups in hydro? i mean you are changing the reservoir frequently. its not like soil there inst much medium to hold salts and the only way you would have a build up in hydro would be if you added to much but in that case its causes nute burn you would know right away for certain. and it would be more of an excess than a build up or are you trying to extract mor foolish answers from this guy for everyone's amusement? you should hoever flush your rockwool or whatever medium your using periodically if you occasionally top feed.

wait until you have 5 stes of true leaves then cut after the second set this would include the spear leaves and the next set after that typically the 3-5 bladed sets of leaves this will give you 4 tops in most cases although where youcut should depend mostly on plant size and health if it doesn't feel righ to cut that much go up a set.
My man! Good one

You just come onto this thread to lip off. You know i was talking to the guy with the nuteburn on page 6 right? If you knew so much about growing you should know your sappose to flush your hydro system. Does a grow medium hold moisture and nutrients? YES. Is hydro a grow medium? yeaaaa.
WHat is PROMIX? a soilless mix. So its hydroponics. Do you need to flush promix? yea i think so. Hydroponics can be anymedium that doesnt contain nutrients. The difference is passive and active.
Now if your growmedium is aerated water then no you will not need to flush once a month. Altho you should keep your system clean and do a final flush.

everyone else read this right? I came to this thread to prevent people from receiving your poor information I've recieved more rep in you informational thread than you have....
and just so you know I never said you shouldn't flush I just asked if it was necessary to. I'm not too familiar with hydro.

agreed, i also have gotten a lot of rep from the thread 
and you do not HAVE to flush, in the same way you do not HAVE to flush prior to harvest if you don't want.
i've never flushed a plant over than before harvest (well other than one which i gave a whack with some funky ph) and they all did just dandy.
