image.jpg image.jpg this is my newest grow, no sex yet. topped her 2 nights ago and she didn't slow down at all. normally, I would expect a one week stunt with the "fim" I did, but the next morning I had side branches growing from 2 out of 3 nodes. here's a preview, enjoy! I included a pic of the "fim" as well

Looks good keep going looking forward to more updates
thanks guys! update. she (or he :() is doing great, had a small encounter with a bulb but otherwise happy. using paperclips as temp. training weights. notice the new leaf growth where I "fimmed", but it made a fourth node that will have four colas. my goal is 8 colas at a level canopy in the shape of a daisy. cfl x 23w(2700k) x 1650lum. x 6. I plan to improve my lighting later. I fully topped her this morning at dawn so in gonna start supercropping branches once they get to length. enjoy :)

What strain are you growing?

image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg update: now at 14 days, side branches are doing great. the 2.5 gallon mop bucket I started out in is becoming crowded with roots. my plan is to veg for two more weeks and flip her/him. I'm going to transplant into a five gallon paint bucket when I flower. pics coming immediately enjoy! ps. notice the top has returned on the main stem after my "fim"! I couldn't have wished for a better outcome, forced out my side growth while keeping my main cola. almost to the downhill stage....patience...

it may turn out to be an auto as many seeds mistakenly end up in packs. it's starting to look like I might have a 60 day finisher but who knows, it may be the violator. I'm hoping I don't end up with a unknown auto

Either way it looks like you've got a good plant
no unfortunately no sign of sex whatsoever. the stank is getting nice though. hopefully in the next week she'll spread them for me (lol). but until then I'm just gonna work on increasing my bud sites and keeping her moderately short( something just tickles my fancy when a king cola is staring me in the face at eye level). thanx for the support and compliments guys I'll keep u up to date as much as time permits.

new update: after much consideration I have performed a second "fim" in order to further encourage my lateral growth. I dot know what kind of outcome this will have and it is the last stressful training technique I will be doing until my final top at flowering. any opinions or suggestions are welcome and appreciated.image.jpgimage.jpg

anyone? no one? ok so I have 8 branches which I topped today to make 16. I tied the branches down slightly to get them out into the light better so they can level out. at 15 days she is thirteen inches, hoping for 40 inches after stretch. any help is appreciated
