Up until the point where the upper portion of my bud tips were exposed enuf I would pinch the stem to cause some damage to slow growth. Once the upper 3" of each stem is covered by premature bud and hairs that I don't wanna damage is when I stop and just let the plant do its own thing. Only thing I'm not sure on right now is quite a few leaves on the lower half and inside my canopy r yellowing and dying so I was thinkin I might wanna hit it with some veg nutes to get it some nitrogen in the next 1 or 2 watering cycles. Then go back to this flowering tea recipe I found that I like to use. Plant is Orange Krush strain.
