back building sounds alot like what my slappin' gets done by doing some critical damage that starts a panic growth spurt But at a different stages of growth . slappin' is done at the point where the stem starts to take off & get that hollow ribbed look just as that starts is when the slappin' is done ie; a critical point in the plant growth as delay at early means less light as the plant to left might not be damaged .it would seem that back building does that to colas promoting more flowers / caudes with lateral growth .
LA has this down to a art
Its not at all like u described. Back building is simply snipping the tips of the buds.
Its in my Sig check it out. Probably worth trying with your slappin.
I'd like to hear more about this slappin if u got time sometime. Maybe make a tutorial on how to do it. I understand the premises behind it. I'd love to know all the right times to try it. As with any method there's a time and a place for slappin hahah.
Cheers bro.
