I have 9 Plants and this is my first grow. I doubt I will get beginners luck with having all females.
I have one huge main plant that i've been taking care of and have not topped. Just cut some fan leaves and 1 small branch that was not doing that great. I have topped 2 other plants to experiment with.
And the 6 other plants are just now about 3 inches tall.
I am going to top one more that grows and leave the rest and see what I like best so I wouldn't have to keep asking is it better to top and prune?
i like topping it, i think it has more room to grow and be lighter and burn better.
its kinda like getting medical bud instead of street bud.
it also depends on your yields. if you cant grow it higher than 6 or 7 feet you should top it.
i dont believe in pruning either.
Ya I have room to grow mine "since most of them are sativa, that's what's best found around here" at least 10 feet or more if they grow higher then that.
I love the small pop corn buds I get from the lower parts. I have the 1 gal bubble bags. The airy buds and the leaves make some killer hash, I don't get a lot but from a five plant rubbermaid DWC I fill up a Publix grocery bag full # harvet time. I might get
6 to 7 pieces of hash the size of a raison. It aint much but very good quality. Last bunch came from Cheese fem from Greenhouse seeds.
