Hi all, I read somewhere that I could increase the size of the buds by folding a few branch until I hear a crack sound.. at first I wasnt really good as it and I broke a few, now it's turning brown where I took the branch off and it wasnt a clean cut it was all done with my finger ,... what could happen, is it ok?

Hey Endur, I'm no expert like some of the growers in here...I did the same thing to one of my plants, I just waited it out and there was enough branch left to feed the bud on the stem, so it was all good. What you're trying to do is called "super cropping"....the idea is to get the hidden buds below to grow out from the plant to catch more light. If you search by that name you'll get some instructions...I just used fishing line to anchor those buds and force them to grow out from the plant, worked well for me!

brokenbranch.jpgwhat I believe to be well bent.jpg
I know the branch will die, its not on the plant anymore, I am just wondering if its ok that it hasnt been cut with clean cutter and what can happen, 15 days into flowering now...

its gonna be fine..just dont break anymore branch or trim anything. pretty much it just lowers your yield

i will tell you ive broken branches. branches split cause buds to heavy and trimmed late into flowering and its didnt effect it much..
but not to say it wont lower your yield

It looks fine. The "stump" will just die, don't worry unless you get mold or slim-funk which is extremely rare. Relax, you're plant is doing fine.

You killed a fan leaf...no biggie. And the bent stem isnt gonna kill the plant...if you want to tie it up to another branch to support it . It will grow a knot were the damage was but will be fine.

thank you all, how about the leaves that are all curled down, is it a lack of a certain nutrient? too much fertilizer? should cut those leaves? thx

Could be all of the above, but cutting off the leaves doesn't fix the problem. It looks like overwatering a bit.

when I look at the instruction, I know how much fertiliser to put in the water, I just don't know how much of it I should give the plant, I try to water like 500ml of water with nutes, when the top soil is dry, I soak with water like 1.5 liters of water, then I wait for 3-4 days then nute again,... does it sound ok?
