Gettin' back to it.

If you had a vertically challenged grow, 4 ft (space w/safe distance beneath the 250w HPS lamp), what, if any, rules to follow regarding pincing and pruning. I once had a Phototron, and the directions that came with that had you pinching and pruning constantly*. The result was many many many little buds in the end. I'd like to hear from other non-tron gardeners...

Or just post a link to info if one is known....

TIA.

* pinch 4 inch main stem fan leaves
pinch 3 inch secondary branch fan leaves (supposedly the most potent to smoke while you await the buds)
prune primary branches after one leaf set
prune secondary branches after two leaf sets
