Yeah she lookin good. Just keep slightly bending up the tips of the main branches towards the light so they try to stay in control and keep growing up. Just bending them up slightly a couple times a day usually works well but sometimes some branches need extra help by tying them up for a few days.

Does that make sense?

You can kinda see what I mean in this pic. Basically the tips of each main branch is still the highest point of the plant.

Yeah but I dont mean cut off the branches, just the small new growth/leaves on the bottom of each of those smaller branches in the middle. That will help give the branch the energy it needs to grow up taller and become a main cola.
 
Of Course she will live lol. These plants are hard to kill arnt they? Well ive never killed a plant. . . unintentional anyway

A few more pics of my trimming techniques after a week or two of veg since the last major trim. From underneath it may look bare but from the top view it fills out ok and will only get bushier during flower.

Yeah she is looking better now without all that lower growth and she should do better now without all those little suckers taking up some of the plants energy.
 
I've been looking up some grafting stuff...

I am not sure I can get my Indicas to veg fast enough...

So I was thinking of "slapping" some Indica braches on her and see what gives...:lol:

What do you think?
 
I know nothing about grafting but I guess it cant hurt to try coz u got enough plants to play with.
 
I never go to show you these shots of the root ball as she came out of the little pot...

I can only imagine what it will be like at harvest time...:lol:

If you are not opposed to it, I will do a little more research and try it...

It would be neat if my very first tree had a few different strains on her...

Maybe I can even graft some of the bigger branches too...

You know, make 2 FAT plants out of 3 skinny ones..

Hummm...

I hope this works...

But there will be no risk for the receiving plant... a wound will heal quickly...

Worse thing I guess is to loose the branches I chopped...

But As you say... I am not exactly hurting for plants...

In fact I am trying to figure out how to get rid of them without waste...

I got about 150 rooted clones I have no idea what I will do with...:lol:

fucking gypsies...:razz:

I'll make sure to take pics when I do the grafting...:mrgreen:

cause you know I will...:lol:
 
Here is a shot of some of the woody stems I have just dying to be fed by 19 gallons of roots...:lol:
