Not so great way to get five tops.......

However, it does work!

At about five weeks into Vegetation, I dropped a light on this one particular girl by accident.

She was crushed fairly well and it really bothered me that I had hurt her at first, but within 24 hours, she was back up and you would have never known it happened.

As a result, we got five perfect Top Bud Sites and she is definately going to be the highest yielder of the five Carnival Strains that I am flowering.

Not the best way of doing it, but it worked and she is one very happy tree,LOL.

Be Blessed,

Glad it worked out. Now you can't really call that FIM'ing it. We'll have to give it a new name. How about FAG'ing it (Fan Accidently Got it). LOL!

You can search the threads for keywords super cropping or feim and it will show a ton of techniques. Basically you pinch the top main cola when it gets about where you want the height to be . Pinch it and bend it over which will slow the growth there so the plants starts the lower branches growing to replace the origianl damaged top coloa. Dont worry it will produce and grow again dont break it off just make it bend but not snap so pinch and slightly crush the cells so its little limp. The other outer branches shoot up and now you have multiple top colas growing at the same time all getting good light

Ok here got you some video that show how to do it go to the link and watch a few
