LMFAO Epigenetics = Stress Your Plants

I plan on conducting 2 more stress techniques on this plant.

1. I will stab pins through all the stalks like 4-7 days before harvest
2. I will harvest the top of the plant, and see if the bottom can veg still, because I think it looks like it will since it's a tall and bushy enough plant to block out the light to the bottom.

what do you hope to achieve by the first?

and i'm sure the bottom will reveg. almost all plants will. In fact people do this all the time too.
this isn't a stress either. Simply a process by which one can retain a good strain.

your idea of stressors is baffling for the most part.

So now you think that EVERYONE already knew that chopping and slicing and putting plants through STRESSfull situations was good for THC content?

:lol:

Stretch fucking Armstrong over here.

I know people re-cycle plants, that is WHY the strain Flo exists
I know people use LST to stress plants, but they do it to have more colas
I know people clone, but they do it to get more clones
I know people FIM, but they do it to get more colas
I know people super crop, but they do it to get fatter yields

What I am pointing out, is that stress = better genetics short term (in the stressed plant) and long term (in the seeds that come from that plant if it breeds)

lookie lookie who has to resort to namecalling. No need to get worked up here fin. I think you need to smoke a bowl...if you have one.

and you are truly lost if you think any of those PRUNING techniques do anything to the genetics of a plant.

if you lst a plant then polinate it, it will not produce seeds that make auto lst'd plants...although that'd be cool.

if you fim for more colas the clones of that plant will not produce automatically fim'd tops.

see where I am going with this?

THat would be a change in genetics fin. I am really not trying to be a dick but you are very confused.

Pins, Zip-ties and Razor Blades will be a part of every grow eventually, and not just for people that takes their own clones.

Finshaggy · Feb 25, 2014

I also plan on testing some "crutch" and "puppet" techniques.

are you on acid today fin?

how exactly should I use a razor blade on my plants?

very interested

It just seems like you are trying to justify your lack of attention to detail and basic knowledge as an attempt to grow better.

I don't think so balzac. He really thinks what he is doing is proper. And that the pruning techniques he has been talking about are really stressors that will produce different characteristics in the plants future generations.

pretty out there....but whats new with this one?

I read about this shit for years before I did it, and I grew other plants before I grew weed.

So you can think whatever you want about how I came to my conclusions, but you are wrong unless you ask me.

I am actually going to go back to ignoring you now since you ignored me.

Just a few posts ago I said "I chopped the plant with a razor blade so as to super crop it", then again I reiterated "I chopped it like an emo kids arm".

Can he explain how pruning will genetically affect plants.

God damit joe, I really want to money shot that chick in you avatar..

you've never been able to produce a decent pot plant until now....and that's only because you didn't fuck with it.

and chopping the stalk doesn't count fin.

for fucks sake I chop the fuck out of my mothers every ten days....they look far worse than yours did after your cloning mishap.

he hasn't yet

so far when he gets backed into that corner he gets mad and threatens to put me on ignore....again

Dyna Ryda · Feb 25, 2014

Hook me up fin.

well I'm first dammit. but since you are in such a nice place like Hawaii...I bet she'd go with you..grumble grumble grrr

Dyna Ryda · Feb 25, 2014

I'd treat her right, c'mon fin. I'd help you with your grows too.

joe macclennan · Feb 25, 2014

he gonna tell you he doesn't need your help on growing bro....that's his m o
