I hope so, I have a drooper but that’s on me and my lack of co ordination… I dropped my best and prettiest. My wife says that I look like Ricky trying to grow from Trailer Park Boys the way I swear and frame sentences when I don’t get 30 minutes to pre think what I type… I guess it isn’t the worst reference lol… ---

They look healthy and happy. I just zoomed in on the photos. Keep up the good work. 👍👍👍 To get more colas you will need to do a FIM. 👍 ---

Thats awesome… it makes me happy and my head stop thinking bad things and confidence and stuff!!! YES! I feel like maybe the next month will be the true testament to training for my yield? EDIT: @MrPeat You think i should FIM and not Top, I am yet to research the difference? I understand fim is less of a clean cut and cant produce more than just double the cut? ---

I had a big speech and thank you dedication to all that helped… who ever reads this know that I got too high and completely forgot what I was typing… It was ridiculous… Peace all thanks for helping this retard (literally please no offense, I suffer my own form of condition but I love using the word, gives me strength) straighten (funny joke if u nu me, I mean spine not what you think…) out my grow! ---

Yes do FIM. This will allow more colas to form. I did it on my last major grow cycle. The one had 4 colas and one was wide as a volleyball. The other 3 wasn’t small either. 👍👍👍 You will need Silica, @Myfriendis410, correct? This will help strengthen the branches. My plants got so big they started to tesr the branches apart where I FIM at. ---

@MrPeat @Myfriendis410 Ok cool, I will do this, FIMing is a technique I dont know well… I can research but I wouldnt be sure whats right… Any good advice? I was going to top twice but am up for suggestions, they are not being scrogged just 4 stand alone ladies. ---

No worries at all. No offense taken. Sucks when you can only tag 10, and you know it’s the tip of the iceberg. Silica wasn’t used in my grow before last cycle, but I started using it again. I feel it helps more than it hurts, so I recommend it. ---

I always try to FIM and usually end up topping lol. ---

Yeah funny enough, when I went buying nutes I had no clue, but silica after watching videos on what each mineral does seemed necessary so I bought a bottle lol… guess that worked out! ---

I would show you but I just dropped my seeds yesterday in water. Its really easy to FIM. Maybe someone that has a plant ready to be trained can show you. I love my big girls gone wild. 👍👍👍 ---

Next time you can buy a huge bag of diatomaceous earth, same thing, and multipurpose, and cheaper. ---

Any good links on how to FIM? I have only looked into topping, and FIMing just looks like do a messier job at topping (which I would have done anyway lol) ---

Is it something to mix in the medium or an organic salt I can use? ---

Yes, a lot of nutrients are cross compatible. Just make sure to add your NPK points if applicable. Silica does change your PH, so be aware of that. (Not much) ---

No issue there… pH adjustment is the after thought, my EC budget is my focus lol and what I am putting in there mineral wise. pH is a 2 step game (up and down) EC/ppm is a nightmare lol! I think I will keep my 1200ppm or something start of 3rd week in Veg, then just pump it up to 1500ppm/2.5EC till Flush? ---

Seems a little high, but are you checking after you add silica?
