Yeah you can lst any branch you want and it won't hurt the plant, just be careful not to snap the stem, go slow, and you can tie it down a little more each day or two. You're topping looks fine, cut the top and two new tops form, so you did it just fine

Ok does it take a little.for the newgrowth

Everything will continue growing and nothing will stop. It doesn't cause any stress. The principal of lst is that plants grow towards the light (up) so if the branch is tied horizontal the nodes must grow up, which creates the new tops. No magic tricks, just good ol plant genetics :)

[QUOTE TheBman24, post: 11052958, member: 886773"]Hey guys just wondering I heard of people sending clones through the mail is that possible?[/QUOTE]
It is possible but you have to know people a have a repore with them. it is kind of iffy you know.

I could be wrong, but you use the same amount of power, whether 120v or 240v.
All running it through a 240v circuit does is reduce the current load on the wires in the Romex by reducing the amps running through the wires, and the circuit breaker is usually much higher amperage rating.
600w @ 120v = 5amps
600w @ 240v = 2.5amps

But you've still used the same amount of kiliwatt/hours, which is 0.6-kwh for a 600 watt light, and 1.0-kwh for a 1000watt light.

Well, another HUGE plus of running it at 240v is the increased safety factor of a less stressed power circuit when running 120v, as we often load other things on the same outlet, or string of outlets sharing a common circuit breaker (fans, side lights, extraction fans, humidifiers, A/C).
A 240v outlet is on a dedicated circuit with a large circuit breaker. (though any power outlet can fail, at any time)

here is a clear pic of how to lst. if you want to do it this way. this is the whole plant bent over and a few days later.

you see the clothes hanger holding it down.
How are the clones doing? Give them a good spray i found about 5 sm today on the clones and it could be it getting cold. It is close to where the power comes in the room. They should be ready for one gal now?

I have never shipped clones before. But it's worth a try. I brought my clones from the Cloners Market. http://www.clonersmarket.com/strain-menu.html Purple Jolly Rancher is suppose to be a cross between Purple Kush and Route 66
Yeah I've never done it either but my buddy knows a guy that does and says it works for him but I personally never tried figured I'd ask.you guys but let me no if you ever find seeds or something for that strain lol I saw it and was. Just like wow I'd love to try that one out

You reading my mind bro. I up potted them to 1 gal 2 hrs ago. they got kelp water. I have lady bugs tomorrow i am thinking and yep i got some bugs in my tent now, but its all good as the lady bugs will handle them. I am not spraying anything on them to kill them since i want to use preditor bugs. i might order Phytoseiulus persimilis and be done with them. i will give lady bugs a shot. I figure in 3 weeks they will go into 3 gal pots. It when the c99 is harvested i will make clones so i can do a run with them.
