Has anyone before tied over the tops of plants in order to try to get the plants to become less taller and more of a 'bushier' style rounded plant? What kind of effects were received?
 
Essentially, yeah. You pinch off the very top growth and you'll grow at least two colas. I wouldn't do this until your plants are on at least their 4th node.

I understand, but just to make sure a node = branch that is growing off the main trunk counting from the bottom up, correct?
 
when u tie down the top of the plant the "budding hormone" redirects to the tallest part of the plant so if you tie the main stem horizontal every node will produce a main or equal to the last bud i tried this once with okay results but i like sog a lot better

How does the 'SOG' work? I know that is a mouthful, LOL....
 
sog look it up theres a million threads about it.. but its basically having a bunch of small plants instead of a few huge plants, its alittle more complicated than that but thats the idea.

Search the forums for stickies and research, also try google. We are all happy to help you but we're gonna require some research as well.

Peace.

Sure I understand and wouldn't have it any other way. I was just wonder whether people in general have had better results from SOG or SROG? What are the opinions out there?
