I have bad news. I went out of town and had my daughter keep an eye on the flower room and she fed the GMO x Swayze and Honeybee f3 crosses with straight nutes right out of the jug.
Poisoned them.
I have more to run this winter. I actually ended up with two Cojack x honeybee F3 females. Next time. They took forever to reveal their sex. Sativas can be hard to tell when young.

The three citrus twists (miyagi x tp) are showing 2 different growth patterns, one taller and stretchier/had to top, like the miyagi cut, the other is stouter with much tighter node spacing/didn't need to top. Interesting smells on stem rub but no orange though I do get a sweet type of smell.

#3, she has the funkiest stink right now, a nice pungent smell that is hard to explain

The golden goji is by far the shortest and stackiest of the girls, she is at least 2-3" shorter than the citrus twist

Man I haven't seen that name in a while, I was actually just wondering the other day if Soma was still alive. LOL

How did that NYC turn out for you. I heard it was a good strain.
I didn't finish it. I used it and a couple of others as back ups, and ended up not needing it. I almost cloned it, but at the last minute tossed it in the chuck tent. A year or so ago I realized I have far too many beans, so each cycle I always pop more than I can finish. She sure was fertile, though.

“Oh fuuuuudge,” except she didn’t say “fudge.”

I have literally had nightmares about doing that, which is why I add food coloring to my nutes when I mix a stock solution. Idiot proofing vs. the idiot that is me.

Sorry for your loss, as they say.

Has anyone here done this or heard of someone doing this? I may try it in the future but In my own theory i don't think it would help yeild I think it would make smaller buds not bigger but that's completely theoretical. Idk
I’ve never done it, I would think it would promote foxtailing , n lower yeild too.
But the more I rip from my plants the better they seem to do (to a point)

Maybe if it was done once it would divert energy to lowers to make them better?
Every 10-14days seems like a lot of stress n asking for trouble

That's what I'm thinking too. In the future I'll try it out on one plant tho. Can't hurt to try.
I've had the top 4cm of one of my buds burn dead n it didn't change the size of that bud at all.
just made a normal bud with a burnt top. Don't see how pinching instead of accidentally burning would cause a different reaction inside the plant.

That's what I would think too, diminish the yield and promote fox tailing. I will only clean up lowers in flower unless I have to emergency top it.

During veg I like to pinch stems to harden them up, and I heard it promotes heavier flowers too but I can't say for sure. I just know since I started running low ppms I actually started seeing much heavier flowers. Good air flow, bright lights and the right amount of nutes is the recipe for big nugs.

That pinching 100% helps hold more weight
Your basically making a SuperCrop knuckle with out the bend, the stress to the branch will make the plant fix the damage and then become more like wood . I like doing this to tops to slow them to let bottoms catch up.
