i jus read thru most of ur journal! epic grow story homie! im open to advise on any of my threads. gud luck in the future!
thanks man! checked your threads and to be honest Im still a newb on my first grow... Im still looking for answers to the same questions you are...

So any of you cats that frequent this spot got any thoughts on trimming for the purpose of increasing yeild? Are they any other good reasons to trim and if so how is there a proper method for this?

trimmimg to increase harvest/yeild, eh?

well in theory the yeild is built into the genetics.

or you COULD gather a bunch of clones, trim to one bain branch and go SCROG to get the most outta square footage

lollipopping- - but it's really built into the genetics of the given plant

IMO

Hhm. Come Read The Journal Brudha! Its All There. U Need To Top Or Clone, Trim Up In The Grow Side, And Not In The Blm. I Just Ran A Realy Big Pik Run Of This In Me Journal. It Should Answer Alot Of The Questions Of Were On The Plant And How Much, And Type Of Cut. Its All There.

Love The The Pic's Room Is Looking Phucking Crazy!!! Also In The Jorn. Is Pic's Of The Blm Side I Go Vert. There, Its A Hole New Game And The Quility The Plant Will Produce Is More Thur Out And Not Limited To The Scrog, Style. If U Got Any Questions Were Tlb~! And Thats Not A Prob. Allways.db.:)

i wouldnt trim those plants except to take off the lowest branches MAYBE. i think it is too late really and the style of grow you are using doesnt require it... let em be all bushy and untrimmed.

oh yeah, trimming can do some cool things... but it needs to be a plot all along, not just a stoned night with the snips ;)

sad truth is, i have a hard time NOT trimming mine.... prolly why i like grow styles like SOG and ScrOG... i can make my weakness into a strength :D

if i was a Mary and had all the gear and space you do, i would be SOGging for sure again! fuck that wimpy 6 port manifold ;)

i am out of my league on hydro, so this is just a guess.... but cant you just add another manifold and increase the size of your reservoir to handle more plants?

I actually did a lil research after posting that and I have found a solution for any size grow! no manifold at all run a line off my pump with pipping going through out tray and I can tap a drip line and head at any point.... sog in mind with that one..

Ok so I got some good close up pics of the nodes, thanks grnman for the direction on this one.... I was only able to get a real good close up on one plant but they all look as this one does... I had taken pics of all the plants but somehow lost them between camera and laptop.. to lazy to take more..

dont see why they wouldnt yield well... only thing "wrong" with your setup is the temperatures, really.. i am sure genetics could be better, but those sure do look like pot to me :D

you mean ebb and flow? or just puncturing the water lines to make more drip points?
