Interesting on the bending should produce some nice bud areas , Happy plants !
I prefer to try and gain a CarCanopy, but when all else fails I go the crack.I applaud and appreciate your bravery Stone.
Bending and snapping stems isnāt easy from a conventional growers point of view.
Iāve seen your plants, you grow healthy thriving plants, you should expect a 24 hrs relocation of the main you just bent.
Look for a hook like shape thatās the sign of the hormones acting, also to be expected the lower growth to ājump nodesā, the lowers will have a huge gap between nodes thatās the elongated growth pushed by Auxins to meet that Apical main at the same height.
Once you start pushing hormones the plant takes the successive bending and snapping like nothing. I find it hard to stop once I start this training. It helps me project the size to be of the plant. You can make them to have 30 main tops, or 50.
When you get the nasty never bending Apical main, thatās when you pull out the string and tie her down. The ultimate blast for the lower growth, after that they all become main with their own apical dominant gravity to them.
Tie down of the apical main.
Hookeffect on a recovered apical main 24 hrs after heavy bending and training.
Apical dominant main blasted on a flowering Auto.
Hope this helps and encourages you to keep doing it.
All the best
My Biscotti Mintz has knuckles like an arthritic granny. Biggest, bulkiest, ugliest knuckles Iāve grown yet. I also add plant bangles/weights on their bent arms to keep them down. Iāll get some pics if you like.
I can not seem to train a seed. Mine grow too tall.
FTFY.

I think my area is a week ahead of you Bode. The warm is a thing! It's coming to you now! Best to you and Julie tomorrow! Will you bbq something? We'll be grilling some chicken thighs if it stops raining. That and smokin the weed!
Thanks Carmen, they're coming along in spite of things it seems this year!You plants are magnificent Otter
As usual my keen sense of where in time I am is unveiledFTFY.
. You'd think I'd fix that by now but no.WoW!Please share the pics;
my current knuckles.
Yes! I'll take it! But in a tent there's nothing like a @ViparSpectra LED light!There are countless possibilities under the sunshine.
I just didn't want you to miss the 4th!

Lolling!
Still laying in bed sipping coffee. My first job of the day is to show you my knuckles! Lol
A funny tho. I fucking hate them! But if I donāt snap the arms my seed starters, they would be 5 foot tall! There was a poster called Ganjagranddaddy and he lived for a good knuckle. Iām spewing he didnāt get to see mine.

Ok question to the Americans.
Why do you always put the month then the date, unless itās the 4th of July. Like shouldnāt it be July 4th?

Hi Tra! Because we were taught that way. I otherwise don't know. It's different for sure when I look at international dates. Month-day-year we learn and until we look out of the country there is no other. It's as queer looking at yours as it is mine. I get dizzy.
Highya SO,
Sounds like you are having a great 4th! We went to my cousin's cottage to celebrate. Was a family gathering with a little rain, but a very nice reunion. Some I hadn't seen since high school!! My Cherries Dubelee is growing a lot! Stalk fattened up, side branches growing a lot, just about 4' tall, and fans are fat and happy. Even with the weather. I guess the temp is a bigger factor (since the warm up, everything is taking off). I'd be surprised if we had 4 days with more than 6 hrs of sun. Anyways, how's your ladies doing? Must be getting huge. Hope so. Happy Smokin'

That's fun! I love a party! If family is involved even better! Those long time reunions are cool!
My girls have seen about the same amount of sun and they're the same size as yours I think. It's dry today and I'll get out for a pic or two and do some maintenance. Cool and drizzly, same theme. Just warm enough for no heat in the house.
Looks like we're both heading into 3 sunny days! Watch them this week!
Thanks! Happy belated Mel!
Thanks Shed! Happy belated 4th of July! Local fireworks all got cancelled and it was strangely quiet. Boston fog lifted and I hear they blew theirs off. I'll watch them later today with En Vogue as the Main act if you don't count the US military band and the Boston Pops. En Vogue rocked I saw!

SUNNY DAY UPDATE
Oh Boy what a little sun does for me! My plants too! I can almost hear them grow today!
IKLWA is getting body to her! I can almost see how she's working things. She's a fun watch all dainty and now full of good branching! Here comes the sun do da do do, here comes the sun. It's all right.
Cherries DubeLee is making a move to build! She has a Body Builder of a stature! I can see she's not even aiming her arms to the sun much. Just maintaining composure. Her way! She's fun to watch!
Best day to you all!

That ILKWA has some long node spacing so you might want to lower the light a bit to see if that helps! Both are looking so healthy and happy and glad to be soaking up the rays.
