    Default Myth?

    a buddy of mine told me that shoving a nail into the base of the stalk the last night before harvest would cause my ladies to go into shock making the buds absorb more thc and whatnot from the stems, kinda like a last ditch effort to reproduce before death. anyone have any insite on this, sounded interesting to me. i figured i'd ask you guys?

    I think it is bullshit!!! The only way to get the most THC and the best buds is to grow in perfect conditions! All those myths are bullshit!!!

    You can test it, compare it to a similar plant and let us know. .

    Seems logical, but you gotta test it like jaime said. Couldn't possibly hurt anything a day before the axe.

    I know if you bust the stalk while a plant is vegging, it recovers after a few days and grows back stronger than before. I've done it to several.

    if any thing is a myth and you wanted to see what other people think I'd still try it because it might make better smoke in the end

    i have no clue but heres what cervantes said in his grow bible.


    "Mutilating the plants by breaking the trunk, driving a stake through, or slapping them around may increase resin production but most often the stress retards growth and causes other problems."
