Have you ever tried supercropping or HST?Oh I know Moon, i don't think you came here to sabatoge my grow I'm just up for trying different things on this grow...everyone is super healthy and can afford it and I like learning things so win-win
You do it in Veg. It's what has given me my stupidly thick stems.
I did these with bends and ones further up by hand.
You essentially pinch them with your fingers until you feel a snap. It's a bit scary and only way to learn is really by trying. But you pinch them until you feel the snap then give them a twist.
After a couple of days the stem will bend back towards the light and you will get a knuckle where you pinched. It creates a storage point for nutrients and moisture and also helps create a stronger canopy ready for budding.
It's not an easy technique compared to most but many experienced indoor growers swear by it as a way to increase yield and support.
