So I've had some plants growing for a few weeks now and someone told me that it's about time to pinch them. It's my first grow and I'm not sure what he meant exactly. What is pinching and is it beneficial?
I believe they were telling you to super crop your plant. The theory is that you damage (fracture) the plant stem to induce the plant to send nutrients to that part of the plant to fix damage thus increasing yield on that branch. You have to be careful how you intentionally damage the plant. I would recommend watching video on it.
