Default super cropping - question ??
when the plant is about a foot tall, is it ok to snap all the branches, so the budding sites get enough light? or only some? if so which ones should i leave alone? the bottom fan leaves obviously?

snap is pretty harsh. you can bend branches over, so bud sites get more light if, in flower,

I was wondering the same thing. Should you ever prune branches to open things up for more light?

Just break them man, pot plants can withstand soooo much stress.

Break them where they can allow more light to get into the lower branches, it really is as easy as it sounds Break without tearing!

yea but it could slow down growth and some leaves and branches should fall off while flowering

Thats what I was worried about. Would it be worth slowing the growth down for that little extra light?

okay so one day my dad was moving a matress outside and i was watching out the window, i noticed he was walking awfully close to my super dogg clone, sure enough he accedently dropped it on my clone!!! i was pissed, ran outside and braced it up. the stem didnt actually break but it bent over and wouldnt hold its wait but a week later she took offf like a rocket ship, branches everywhere, amazing growth. so from now on when i get clones i gently bend the stalk to where i hear a little crack an wala, branch galore. yadida yee yee
