I pruned the roots every week, or else it would have pushed the plants out of the cup..
Didnt seem to hurt her, i left them enough to get by with.

good to know, maybe that explains your growth!! + rep
I had it in my head that they would just bonsai and just slow growth to a crawl. But I think I'll try root pruning on one of them for sure, once they have enough to even think about pruning that is...

It's a shame I didn't have anymore seeds to run that test of pruning one and not pruning one.
I defiantely reckon that Lollipopping is the way to go tho, it will give th cola(s) a better chance at developing.

I have LOTS of bagseed. I just started growin a few months back so I still have quite a reserve of seeds from the midz I was forced to smoke for so long!! Hopefully you'll get to see a comparison if both of mine are girls! (but I doubt it) I have horrible luck and get lots of males:cry:

that's one of the cool things about the shot glass grow, you get to see the roots carve their way through the dirt.....

Go call ur Bullshit elsewhere. If u read the thread u can c i trimmed it weekly. Sativa's grow roots like a Mutha-Fukr, and otherwise she wouldve tipped out of the cup. There is enough of a root-ball in the soil to keep it alive. I reckon it stunted the plants growth of bud tho as i did it during flower, but i had no other choice.
