Yeah I read 7 to 8 weeks done and dusted with xxxl yeilds (or I think it was that one). @ValleyDragon the earliest I have heard a plant can finish is 6 weeks from week 6 it just swells up but then I thought what about these 12-13+ week strains??

That looks well over a week. It's really budding up. They look dosed up on N..

However, I do prune mine up to week 3, you should see what I chuck out. The reason I do this is because they are still vegging in the first couple of weeks. If I cut too early it would encourage them to grow taller.

Personally I'd be brave and cut off the first 2 nodes or so. The other lateral branches will all be bigger instead and it will fill out the canopy more.

Do you mean cut off the 2 highest braches or all of the braches?

Last time I was given advice like that mate it sounded mad as hell, but once done

(you will see what these pros are talking about lol)

Mine was in veg still I nipped the main stem and was told to chop two nodes down I refused lol, but few spliffs later his explanation made allot of sense so I did it while still stoned lmao...

The results is my avatar pic, so far in my 1 tiny year of growing I never have grown one that good yet.

It makes all the other tops at equal level to battle for main cola job, and it fun to watch em all go as fat as the main colas:weed:

No, the centre branch, two nodes down, that way it will be more level and the top will look like a crown. It will still grow after that but with all the lower branches coming up level.

Cut under these 2 buds

Brilliant, thanks for advice..(:

Was getting a little worried because it towers over the other plants (different strains) but ive never topped in bloom before, only lollypopped plants.

If you didn't want to chop it off you could alway supercrop. Where you've been told to snip it off if you bend it over 90 degrees it'll be the same size as the rest of the tops and you won't lose any bud!

It was when I came on this site I realised how little I knew about growing, had learnt some stuff off mates but most of that info was counterproductive..

Also bought a book to learn at beginning by Jorge Cervantes but its 100% better to learn off pros on here with more practical growing advice..(:

I did my first grow with that book and had such a good harvest (and far better than many inbetween) that I went out and got a flat straight after to grow in. I got too experimental though and wanted to try everything out! Lol

Just take it easy with the book and remember that nothing compares to experience. And when you feel like you could write a book on how NOT to grow weed then you pretty much have it nailed! :)
