What it does is send nutes to the lower branches making it bushy and little. Also increases yeld. DO IT. I swear by it.
Hmm, I musta misread something about the different types of cannabis on wiki. If the one plants of mine is satvia, I will definitely try FIM'ing... I started LST'ing it but took it off later- paranoid that I was doing something wrong. I know there are lots of good guides for FIM'ing, so I'll be sure to do it soon! I need to buy some small scissors or something- probably able to get just what I need from Wal-Mart's pharmacy section.

I think they are looking fantastic- what do you think? I will also definitely be cloning the bushy one- it seems like it will fit into my space. Also, I think I can keep the temperature low enough to add a third plant, but I will do that after I get this grow under my belt, which will hopefully be fruitful.

    Oh, when I go to change the nutes of my plants, where should the water level be? I am a bit confused on that...

    the water level should be just above where the roots sit, so the roots can get the water but leaving them so they want to grow further to.
    good lluck

    I have some roots on my big plant that are really long, so I should put the water just above the tip of the longest root?

    You got it. The roots will rot if they have too much water. So as long as the bottoms are in the water you're good.

    Oh and make sure the scissors are clean before cloning. And buy some good ones. Not wal mart .99 cheap ones. You'll want ones with a spring on it. You'll be using these all the time, and at harvest time it will save you time and hand cramps. Don't clone until you know the sex. You don't want to clone a male and waste your time. You'll need a rooting gel too.

    LST is just bending the plant, making it grow sideways. The plant will flip it's leaves and everything, it's fun to watch. You wont be hurting the plant. Bend that bitch (we hope) over. The sooner you start training the better.
