Doc Bud's High Brix Q&A With Pictures

Ask anything. I'm always good for fish stories, tilted windmills, negative opinions on most subjects and of course, unsolicited advice. Most of it related to growing.

I prefer to give my advice in person, under the power of what I'm about to advise you on. When, are you available for this consolation?
 
G'morning guys. Being nosey here and learning waaaay to much. Hopefully I can decide on some of the techniques used around here to help my own growing experiences. Doc, I was pointed in this direction because I was told you developed the idea of fattening up your buds by clipping the tops. My question for you is, after you have topped the colas, what do you do with the tops? Also, is it effective for every plant or is it strain specific?

Mornin Mello...i'm pretty sure you've Doc mixed up with somebody else. Doc doesn't practice this "cola topping " you speak of. I'm not aware of any of our "gang" doing this. I have heard of it but it is a very radicle approach to getting bigger buds. Most seasoned growers would not interupt a good bloom cycle by topping a cola. Have an awesome day Mello! cheers eh.:circle-of-love:

It depends!
Fish stories M-F 12 noon to 2:30 pM.
Windmill tilting: by appointment
Negative opinions (most subjects) 7 days, dawn to midnight.
Unsolicited advice: pretty much all the time.

I prefer to roll a nice cone of Colombian, with maybe a gram of Grape Ape kief mixed in prior to any sort of consultation.

I've never done this cola topping bro.
 
Oh...... hmmm. That's weird. Well, you win some you lose some. You guys in here say it's radical huh? I got an answer nonetheless. Who is this gang you speak of? Where is the sign up sheet for initiation? :rofl:

We're a loosely associated band of misfits and ne'r-do-well's who are into hyper active soil biology, minerals, foliar feeding and such. We tend to grow cannabis. Many of us grow pretty damned good cannabis.

As for bud topping, any time you remove apical meristematic tissue you are removing hormones. This will definitely have an effect. What is it you're trying to accomplish with this?

Man, I was hoping someone would say something along the lines of " Just build a successful grow career and then come talk to us" not pay up and sign your life away. I think you really are Jesus..... lol

I was told thicker buds as opposed to long ones. I'm just going through the learning curve hoping to find a few methods of cannabis cultivation, so I can say:

Once I get on your coast I'll ping you. I might get lucky ;) but, I might also pass out and smile

I've done a lot of backbuilding,, not recently and not with Doc's kit. It's interesting, but, with Doc's kit I feel I'm hurting or doing something I don't need to do. Can't really rationalize it, until you have a few grows under your belt and a few methods,, try it. It'll build your knowledge and you can't kill it,, well, you kill it with Doc's kit. Just do it
