I’ve noticed that people come in here asking questions without researching it first, well i'm gonna try to make things easier for those who are new at growing or not very experenced at growing. I’ll be here to try to answer those question asap. I’ll be in & out this thread from 6 a.m. to 6-7 p.m. central time. I'm going to try to cover most of the basics, & some of the more advanced techniques needed for growing marijuana, from start (seed), to finish (curing). If anybody finds something wrong let me know so we can fix it, to make sure everybody gets the correct information. Theres alot of things needed to start growing, so this is the place to ask those questions, so go ahead and ask away. if i help you a + rep would be great, but not nessary, not sure how to +/- rep, ask. & if u think this thread has been helpful, please rate it.

how are you growing?? soil,hydro,aero??

anywayss.. you can top your plant to make it grow more wide than tall..

if your trying to grow "more leaves" you cant. some plants will grow differently than others.. its genetics!!!!

hope this sortof helped

ASK ME IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER ?'s....

wait until your plant grows 5 nodes then top at the 2nd true node...not counting the little leaves at the bottom of the plant

you will get 4 main colas from this method..for more on this method look for uncle bens topping method

I have three 6500K, 1600 Lumen, 26 watt CFLs about three inches from the planters and im just waiting for them to sprout.
btw this website is the shit, i didnt even know how to start any of that before i found this site.
Anyways any cool suggstions from any of the experienced growers would be greatly appreciated...

i still dont get what im doin wrong my plants arent growin more leaves they just keep f*ckin growin up and up the exact opposite of what i want...i had it on 24 hour light cylce with a few diffrent cfl lights but the plants just keep growin up and all they have is the top leaves it gets shortly after it sprouts and i dont think the stems gonna be able to take the rapid growth even tho i have a fan on alll the time
