NO ... but if you keep picking your nose, your head will cave in

you dont really want to touch buds that are forming,i hate when i smell weed and i sneeze a million times

When you realize that 95% of the crap you read on here or anywhere for growing Cannabis is erroneous you will be 10x the better off.

Don't touch your buds your just damaging them. If you really want to smell your beauties without touching your buds here's how you do it.

Rub your fingers on the crystalized leafs that are close to the buds. Thats it !!

Yeah I mean they wont just shrivel up and die but you should not have to touch them its part of the process you can touch them when they are ready!!!

Comedy gold sir, comedy gold!

Thx for that I'm growing my first as well n am 12 days into flower and am the same just wanna touch lol

no, dont touch them jus for the sake of touching... but, if you first clean your hands and nails, you can pinch like 1/16 off the tops of ea bud and they are sappose to get bigger! one time ev 2 weeks...

When you're dealing with buds like this sometimes you need to touch to inspect for mould.

Can you teach me how? Lol

That fucking cola had mould in that pic. I didn't find it til harvest day lost the top 2" of that cola.

Booo. At least it didn't get worse though. That's a big cola to lose entirely. 2" is a pretty small dent in that thing hahah.

yeah mike does sound like lil bs.....just cause topping should be done during veg

It's not topping to pull of the flower of the plant lol. Topping is when you remove the main growing shoot which has the largest concentration of growth hormones so the plant bushes out more. I have no idea what purpose it would serve to rip off the very part of the plant you aim to get the most of. It's not like the plant is going to replace it with two flowers...Just look at his other posts around here...
