so I've got a blue mystic thats been flowering for 24 days now, and a few of the pistols have just started to die. I was thiking it's too early for them to start dying off, but what do I know? It might be because I was trying to make my buds fatter by "bud pinching". Since they're looking pretty kinda small. The pistols have only started dying off at the top, where the pinching occured. I was also thiking about using molases but I'm unsure of how to use it. Anyone care to help me fattening up my girl. I'll get pics up if anyone wants.

Well in truth bud pinching works early on and only about 55% of the time. The remaining cases you loose your bud sites till ending of flowering cycle. Second blue mystic is a awesome strain but easy to screw up I wouldn't try too much stress training with that strain. Just my opinion
I only tried bud pinching that one time. The next dead I saw dead pistols and never did it again. I shoulda known it would hurt it (it's kinda commen sense) How much does it look like I will get off this little girl? I'm using a 3 part general hydo ponics nute. in a perlite/vermicculite/soild medium. This is my first grow from seed that hasnt hermed out on me. Anways, heres some pictues... Please judge and give advice.

Thanks, I knew it was a bad idead. But I saw this video about bud pinching and it looked like it worked (I'm trying to get my buds bigger). I only tried it on a couple colas though. After that I decided that it's just not a good idea. I picked up some Blackstrap Molasses yesterday and now I'm wonder how and if I should us it or not. Would it effect the smoke or flavour at all?

just wonderin u can try puttin some boost in on the last 2 weeks and watch your girls beef up. pk all so help. hope this will help u. i got 25oz on 4 plants in 11 weeks BLUE CHEESE.
Shit, that is some pretty good weight for 4 plants. I wonder what I'm gonna get... It's 1 day from week 5 and I stared using Molasses. Is it too early to sart Molasses?
Molasses should be used throughout the plants life cycle (the contents of molasses isn't really for the plants, they're for the micro-organisms that help breakdown salts/nutrients that are already in the plant).
Although this is still debated, two sides; dunno the other yet because people still use molasses only in flower (need a side to side journal).
