you want the sun to hit the lateral branches that are now facing up.
That's exactly what I was thinking when I tied it away, but my only concern was that since the under side of the leaves would be exposed to light now, would this be a bad thing or would they just turn??
No you should be fine it wont take long for the leaves to turn toward the light, about 3 days if
Thanks they started turning up the same day and were alot better almost straight today. I think I'll just leave it alone and let it heal, I don't want to stress a hermie more than I already have, as I fear it will produce more seeds than buds.No you should be fine it wont take long for the leaves to turn toward the light, about 3 days if
im not mistaken, and if you broke the stem a little i wouldn't worry about it. I actually HST (high stress train)
my plants which is another way to supper crop, I purposely break the lateral branches so
that it hangs outward instead of upward, its similar to LST but you actually inflict damage that it eventually
recovers from, you could still have it tied down if you want to LST it. you will be fine my man.
And yes put some soil on top to cover your roots that are exposed.
good luck bro!
Yes I read that indicas that are grown in tropical regions will flower usually right when they're mature enough to (around 2 weeks) due to the shorter photo-period, and that usually only sativas are grown in this type of climate. So this could have definitely been a factor if not the reason why. Too bad I don't have any sativa strains to test out.
Ok thanks, but is there anything I should keep an eye out for?? like what will it look like if it does start to rot, I researched alot on stem rot after super cropping but cant find any pictures, is this cause it doesn't happen often??
nah, you should be ok doing this.. this is pretty standard practice.. some strains will throw out a few males flowers early in veg, and people will remove them, and they won't come back afterwards.. not always though...
Alright thanks I'll keep an eye on them just to be safe, and let you know If I see any difference in the amount of balls its producing. (which is quite alot already)
