Here's an example on my seedlings.

Before:


Tied down sideways:


A couple weeks later after being transplanted to larger pots:



You can kinda see how the lower branches start trying to catch up and replace the top.

thanks for the pics showing me dude. all you're plants look beautiful. how about the tape method? do you guys approve of that?

Thanks. You mean where you tape a leaf to the pot to lst? I've seen it done in a YouTube video but never tried it myself. I'd worry the leaf would tear off in the wind but like I said, I've never tried it.

Yeah that's what I mean. I'm just wondering if it's really that bad. If you tape the very tip of the leaf and it does get damaged or tear would it cause high stress? Cause i know some people cut the tips of their leaves after a while anyway.

How about the nutes, once a week? twice a week? at 1/4 for now of course
one of them is solid stuff you mix in with soil.

I've had good luck with feeding liquid nutrients every other time I water. That's usually once a week for me but I wait till my plants just start to look thirsty before I water so when it's hot out I end up watering more often than when it's cool.

Stuff you mix with your soil is usually a slower release and isn't needed as often. I'm not familiar with the one your using though. Maybe someone else here knows more about it.

I'm pretty sure I got something around here, good call. Or if it gets a little to windy i can just see the tape giving out. And is it weird if these little girls (hopefully) kinda smell already. As I was playing with them i noticed a faint aroma that i am quite accustomed to. i was very excited

So I went out this morning to check my babies out and i saw what i think was a fucking caterpillar. It had already chewed up one of the smaller leaves. i flicked that mother fucker into the street. Anyway it was green with and orangy head, anyone know exactly what it is?

I was doing some research and it seems like this wasn't a caterpillar at all, it's a rose slug. Bug issues already ad they aren't even in there guerilla spot yet -_-

I suggest leaving the plants alone. Not much time left, Id let them do their own thing. What if you cut them wrong again and stunt the fuck out of them for a month? Then you'd be lucky get a pinner dried off one of those plants.
