I read about the F.I.M technique right here on 420.It stands for "fuck I missed".
I was curious about it as well and even though I haven't perfected it,I have had success with it.On a couple of my plants it produced 3 and 4 new growth sites.
Into flowering as of now and I am starting to see the results.Instead of just one bud site I have clusters.

LST is low stress training.Lots of info about it.

You can definitely use nutes well into flowering.. Just be sure to use the correct amount it should just increase your bud production.

Minus- AMAZING links. thank you so much for the help.
Dr.- thanks.. I guess i should still start out at 1/4 strength even tho im this far into flower? I heard less is more.
PeaceJones- Thank you very much. Im going to start germinating in a few days. I'll give you guys some pics when they sprout. assuming i have those batteries by then.
Does anyone know about Ona Block? or Ona Gel? Looks pretty convenient. But does it work?

ONA is the bomb yo. If they are really stinkin then get the gel. the block works very well for me but I can hardly compare to your plant...

the gel is great for flowering- the block is lighter duty.
Your plant looks great, chaosridden. You've really done a good job with her.
Get that camera fixed man!!
We need pix.

ONA does work...Dont base your harvest on the color of the pistils. Its all about the color of the trichomes man. If you cant see them clearly then you need a different and more powerfull source of magnification.

thank you doc, notreally, and harry.
would a regular magnifying glass work. as long as its like 50x? if there is such a thing.

I have a magnifying glass that's absolutely worthless. Radio shack has an illuminated microscope for $12.09 online. It has great reviews for viewing trichs.

yea i have that one Fox..and it gets the job done...not bad for 12 buck...
^ Agreed! I just went an picked one up. It works great. It only took me a second to figure out the correct adjustment.
I think that one(Radio shack has an illuminated microscope)
may have a bit of amber colored light in it's illumination.
From what I've seen,
light amber trichs look clear under it.
If I hadn't seen them all cloudy I would still be waitin' on some.
Thank Gawd!!!

The very middle of the stem is Extremely dark purple. almost black looking. The heat is around 77-80 pretty much constantly. I did lose a lot of fan leaves due to this stupid MG soil. I think i may have also over watered a smidge last watering because the leaves started to curl downwards(i think this is a sign of overwatering please correct me if im wrong). I was kind of trying to flush the nutes i was using but Im Kind of confused about exactly how to flush. i.e. do you run excess amounts of water through the soil at once or do you just water without nutes for the next few waterings?
