I’m interested to see how this goes Homer. It makes total sense to me that you would want to get those separate colas going - and if you can do that with just topping then that’s great! I want to do something similar later in the winter just before Spring. Just one big photo in my 2x4 that I can supercrop to fit! And grow it’s siblings outside..I actually haven't done any training as far as bending branches or holding them down with my Amnesia plant that I trimmed today instead all I have done is top it three times so I have eight equal tertiary bud sites. My first attempt at growing was with a scrog which worked okay but was a total pain in the butt especially when watering. I switched to quadlining which worked pretty good and did some plants with just two secondaries I called twinlining.
These methods work fine but it is a bit of work to keep changing the hold-downs so with this plant all I have done is top it so I have my eight bud sites. I let this plant grow a lot between toppings so I cut back a lot of growth when I did to try and hold the plant back. I find super cropping has its limits as far as restricting height so I am seeing if I can do it with trimming better.
Even if I have to cut off a fair bit for height I figure the roots will be oversized for the plant and produce big buds. Perhaps totally delusional but we will see. But if I can get away with just topping to restrict height and keep it to eight bud sites my trim time will be pretty good and it would be a very low maintenance system (of paramount concern with my busy life). That Gorilla Glue took I think at least three hours maybe more to trim.
That makes a lot of sense. Note to self; no more trimming until three weeks after flip. I did sorta kinda think of it too late. In my books, that's a victory.
Sounds like a plan BooWho2. I find one big plant can take a pretty large area so I'm sure you'll do well in your 2 x 4. I hope she doesn't miss her siblings outside too much but at least she'll be safe from the critters. Dangerous world out there for plants.I’m interested to see how this goes Homer.

Pictures are my thing... If i could go be a photographer for cannibas i would feel like i died and went to heaven.Yes, wood for flooring but my black background is in use so I think I will put up some rust coloured fabric I have for now for the walls. There is a FabricLand pretty close to me so I really should check that out for background material. Suggestions are always welcome; the only thing I'm professional at is being an idiot.
Me too. I was really enjoying photographing my plants before I had my break with reality.
But I am getting back into it too.
Thats sometimes the only time I get to break from reality that and this site... I could read for years and never be caught upMe too. I was really enjoying photographing my plants before I had my break with reality.
