ok i think im missing something huge with my growing op. im currently in my 2nd grow. i was planning on cloning since i bought real seeds this time instead of bagseed like last time. however like last time, my plants do not want to grow side branches. all i get is my main stalk, and then leaves off that stalk.

how does god expect me to clone plants like this. i have yet to find an explination on this. i made a pic of what i mean.

do i need to start topping my plants in veg to get more branches? i veg under a 400watt MH light so i dont understand why this is happening to me. using fox farm nutes. growing in soil. someone help!

did u sex those seeds bud?! Some seeds, outta some bag. You may be looking at trouble there if ya didn't.

Here's what ya gotta do,,,you have to turn those plants....12/12. Carefully, intervally, looking at the node growth at where the stock and sun leaves meet. Is the node pointing straight up in a V shape??? or drooped in an m shape. v is female and m is male.You'll need maybe around three weeks, for me its around three weeks, some guys can do it sooner, some will disagree with it, but do it for three weeks and you'll know for sure....Can't understand your drawing..but,but,but I think ya got some sausages there. After identifieing which is which you will need to revert.

Only turning them will tell, and if your thinking of that MHS for flowering, don't think! Get an hps.

those store bought are female.

Bonide Tomato Blossom Set Spray will cause lateral branching without the need to nip the bud. It's good stuff and great for creating branching on mothers.

you need a stem and several nodes dude to make a cutting that will root fast and grow into a strong high yielder.
