Guys and Gals I could use your help please! Last week I celebrated my 1 year anniversary growing the green goodness. In the past I would always go from veg to flower too quickly. I attribute this to my lack of patience and because let's face it, a flowering plant is a lot more exciting to look at every day then a vegging plant. I got into the habit of harvesting a plant (maybe 1 zip dry) and replacing it in the flowering tent with another youngster that would produce about the same. Well thanks to this site, and more directly this thread I realized I was wasting. Wasting time, wasting money, wasting water, wasting electricity, wasting nutrients. So thanks to you guys I decided to veg my plants longer, do some topping and LST training and see if I couldn't be patient and increase my YPP.
So here is where I need your help. I grew a plant that I harvested about 6 weeks ago. I had taken a clone off of it before flowering it. Well the product is absolutely perfect for me. The seed was donated to me and I was told it's Green Crack. Anyway on to the clone, I have been bending branches, tying branches down, topping a lot. The photos below are the end result. It is currently in a 5 gallon fabric pot (first time with a fabric pot) in Pro Mix BX medium. I use the full line of Fox Farm nutrients including the Bush Doctor products.
As of this second this plant is scheduled to go into the flowering tent in 11 days. I fear I may have made too many branches/tops if that's possible. Nearly all the branches are at or very near the top of the canopy as I have worked to let light into the dense canopy. I see you guys thinning out the underside of the canopy. But in doing so I would be cutting off branches that although skinny do reach the top or close to it.
I guess what I'm asking is what the heck do I do now? Is this plant in a 5 gallon pot capable of feeding all the tops I anticipate will stretch out of the canopy? How do you think I should proceed?
Thanks Van for allowing me to hijack your thread. I have followed this from day 1 and trust you guys to give good information.
Here are three photos of this plant. Below that is my Solo Cup plant that will be harvested in about 10 days.
