What Is Fimming

Hi All

Could someone please explain what Fimming is.I've seen it used in threads but nobobys telling how to do it.

Thanks

HI Supa Cola

FIMing is the F*CK i MISSED method. This involves removing about 75% of the lead growth tip of the plant. You take some sterile scissors or a scalpel and pinch the leading growth tip. Then you snip off 75% of it with your scissors or scalpel.
This will then develope 2 leading growth tips instead of 1 but they will take longer to develope which allows the rest of the plant to branch out and adopt a candalebra shape.


Hope this helps

Jon

Ahhh Fimming...I remember reading alot about it on the old Overgrow.com site....seemed like an elusive holy grail. As I remember, proper fimming is as Jonda mentioned, where you cut out the tip of a main main branch, but leave just enough so it branches into many cola tops, like 4 or 5 or more. I've never been successful at it myself. If you pinch the lead growth back with fingertips, it WILL cause that branch to split there giving you two tops instead of one. If you get it to work give us a pic! Good luck
