Yeah, well, all true. Good advice. There is certain on-going traits that I read about that I take exception with. First of all, male plants produce a LOT faster than the flowering ladies. Second, everybody seems to be peeing in their pants to kill the male. From the time the males shows sex, and actually about to pollinate is a big time difference. Point, newly sex showing males can be thrown anywhere, just out of site, without threat of actually doing any pollinating. Also, the Pee-in-my-pants rush for the Buds to hit the milky/amber stage, Because a 3 ft. tall plant, during the start of flowering, will grow to 4 ft. tall, but the growth is in Buds only, I do everything in my control to extend the flowering time for as long as possible. For each day that Buds is well fed, doing fine, the denser, mellower, bigger & heavier they naturally become. Let's say, 5 months invested. If you can prolong the amber 45 days longer, the plant gives 1 & 1/2 lbs. as opposed to 1 lb., etc. 45 more days for 50% more is not a bad deal. Once the buds first start being milky, number one, I believe all that sticky shit requires lots of water. I shut down everything with the exception on seaweed, molasses, and 1/4th the regular fish emulsion. No Nitro does not feed the still needed bud leaves, so a little is needed.
Depending on security, climate, you can also clip just the wanted Buds, every 5 days, while feeding, & new buds will began where the cut ones was taken. If your plant is not staved. With this method, you can double the yield. If topped & trimmed properly, you can get 5 lbs. from what normal RIU experts get from one LB. Do the norm, get the norm.
