Crimping.. i learned this technique from subcool and kyle kushman. Kushman does it in veg and flowering and subcool only does ot in veg. I found that doing it in veg is really the only way to go for me.. i tried it in flowering and my ladoes didnt like the added stress.. they all hermed. So with that being said.. here is what crimping is.. crimping is the rupturing of the the outter and inner cell walls without breaking the stem completly.. what this does is the crimped part will break. And then heal.when it heals it creates a bigger passage in where the plant can uptake more nutrients which helps in creating larger fruit. This is notfor everyone and it took me a while to figure it out..
I use two techniques

1. For the upper more flimsybranches isimply squeeze the stem with my thumb an pointer finger until the stem collapse s..

2. For the lower , harder stems i simply twist with one hand to the left and twost with the other hand to the roght till i feel the inner cell walls collapse.

If u go to far just tape up the branch.. it will heal.

This technique is for the advanded growers not for noobs..

Hope this helps..
Can you explain a little about this "crimping" technique?

Day 31.

I think running organic i lost a week due to the transition... Chemicals definitely make them flip way faster..


Had to do another defoliation/bullshit trim due to over crowding..

Heres the before..
