Absolutely - just make sure that the part that you hook on the plant is soft and thick enough to avoid cutting the plant's skin.Would debarbed fish hooks serve as anchors, hooked into the top of fabric pots, with garden ties through eye of the hook?
Alligator Clips?
I've been curious about that - maybe with one of my experimental seeds (from a herm).I would be interested to see the plant with the main stems buried.
Here you go. Main stem buried. No problem. Grew roots in the end. LOL.I've been curious about that - maybe with one of my experimental seeds (from a herm).
I think (and right there the complications begin!):
That a buried main-stalk would behave similar to a downed & buried Redwood tree - each viable branch becomes a sub-tree --- the main trunk is still intact, just horizontal. -- Might get killer rooting, watering will suck (maybe a SIP)
Sort of the thought I'm trying here - just not buried.
My original thought was to grow a "regular, untopped, Christmas Trees shaped plant" - A Christmas Tree drawn on a table. --- I need to SCROG next time...
It's really interesting to see how apical dominance has had some branches thinking they're the main - hoping this translates to big buds!
So far I have not removed a single branch from seed, a couple are approaching 30 branches as of today.
I try to preserve leaves by tucking; but I do moderate pruning to remove shade leaves and under-leaves that are looking unhealthy.
I'm not topping either - curious how the main bud will come out with apical dominance nearly even.
I was actually worried about that when I added soil to my pots. I wasn't even here to ask about it.. lol Thanks for the post.Here you go. Main stem buried. No problem. Grew roots in the end. LOL. View attachment 4959353
Downright inspirational ! WOW dude...I topped this girl in half at 6 nodes and have been LST’ing the hell out of her ever since. This is my current grow, and couldn’t be happier so far.

Just wondering, did you find MORE roots than average?Here you go. Main stem buried. No problem. Grew roots in the end. LOL. View attachment 4959353
I grow roots. So always MORE roots. But yes. It did give me additional. No need for them though. Just the plant doing its thing. Did help with stability in the wind before I put the greenhouse up.Just wondering, did you find MORE roots than average?
In other words, something worth pursuing?
I dig the look of it!
