Ok and last but not least how in the world do u top a plant? Let alone without ruining it?

Flowering and veg cycles are completely up to the grower preference, you can induce flowering in a rooted one inch clone if you want or you could grow a sativa dominant plant 14 feet tall before you induce flowering its up to you... What it really comes down to is how much time you have to wait for the plant to grow big, and how much room you have for bigger plants (obviosly while practicing "supercropping" techniques in veg such as topping, bending,bansai-ing, FIMing, lollipoping ect...will multiply your yield as many times as your patience and percistance allows. Hygrohybrid has good advice and vids on youtube) Just one thing though you absolutly need a seperate veg and flower rooms to maintain a perpetual harvest and get enough yield to make paying the light bill worth your wile. As far as cloning taking a clone from a vegitative plant is the only way to go in my opinion because you take a clone from a flowering plant you risk waiting up to 2 months for it to revert back to vegitative growth and in the long run will cost you extra nutrients, inefficiently used space in your grow show, and money to veg it extra long before your desired size. Also another important side note you can grow them bushy and wide rather than tall... I will post a pic of my finished product of suppercropping plant. The plant in this pic yielded over a pound after it was dry and cured! it was only 20 inches tall, but almost 4 feet wide! you can manipulate these plants to grow however you want! I took this Liberty haze plant when it was 2 ft tall and slowly and carefully bent the top branch where it met the branch below it and in the opposite direction and where there is a gap between main branches bend the horizontal smaller branches that are coming off the main branches into the open space where it will get more light ( you can even convince the plant to make side branches by carefully bending the branch just above a new node, if you bend it until it either pops or can be completly bend to the point it can touch itself then the new node below it recieves hormones telling it that it is now the new "top" of this branch!) check the bends daily tape over any splits that happen, its ok if your new bends leave the leaves upside down it will revert back to facing upwards in a little as an hour! every 5 days bend some more creating a big round bush, also apply the other supercropping techniques listed above (except basai in this method)you can top again every 7-10 days or so, skys the limit. Cannabis plants are like hoes the more you smack them around the more they want to please you! If this was helpfull please "like" my post and page or whatever lol View attachment 2740794

Too many big words, stop yelling. Lookin for a wattage on that plant. I hope you dont think im going to believe thats a 150 watt grow. .??

Whats up man. Any thing reflective is prolly better than nothing so that should be ok. IMO id use 1 gallon buckets with round saucers and just fill in light footprint. Id guess 3x3 or 4x4, so 9-12 plants. 2 gallon pots will work as well id just veg the plants a little longer. There are many things that can cause a plant to stretch....lol Just try to get that 150w as close to canopy as possible without much heat build up. Id guess about 12" will be good. Also remember when you switch the lights to 12/12, depending on the strain your plants will stretch 1 to 3 times the height they were when u started them into flower. Just keep that in mind. IMO also fuck that bottom half of the plant! id cut all that junk off after your plants stretch in flower..lol it just seems thats where all the junk bud comes from. Not always but in general. Good Luck man and hope all goes well for you. HighplainDriftr

wtf, you are telling him to have 12 plants under 150w??? OP you should have one plant under 150w and you should train for an even canopy and have the 150 w about 4-5 inches from the canopy.

cut the top of your plant off. make sure to leave some nodes for new branches to grow out of. if its 6" tall id cut the top inch of or so. it seems like it might hurt the plant but its cool, it wont. it slows vertical growth a lot and makes your plant bush out more. helps when u get into flower so your plant wont reach the light as fast. if not u have to keep moving light up and thats a bitch. top em, let them get some good branches then switch..
