TBH I do not recall

OK. I found Doc's reference to alternating nodes...not sure how to add a post here from another journal...but it looks like that is when he decides to flip. He posted on 01/10/18 on Doc's and Dark Scotia's journal.

That I do know, flip after alternative nodes, but that's pretty late to top a plant

I will troll Doc's journals again in a bit. Time to make a batch of steak and bean chili!

 

[Chris Scorpio]

Mmmmmm chilli

No action taken today but the big two will need water tomorrow for sure.

Bright green stems, shiny green leaves.....this is what I like to see at this point. If I knew it was a female, I'd top it.

But that will to wait till I know for sure.

Notice the pic in the next post

Looks fine to me.....she's getting root bound. Now is a good time to top, take clones, clean up the lower branches etc. in preparation for bloom.

No problem. When they have lots of foliage and become root bound they do this. Mine too. It's time to trim the excess and shape the plant for bloom.

Here he specifies it is a good time to top. Like I said I am no expert with the kit by any means. I have personally topped plants at the 3rd node in the past.

 

[Chris Scorpio]

Interesting...thanks bud

I know Doc also has said he prunes, transplants and flips all at the same time. But on this post (a page or two after where he specifies it is a good time to top) he says he will flip in a week or so. It can get confusing sometimes!!

Do a strong transplant drench right at time of Transplant. I'm thinking about a week for mine before they bloom.

Cool! Thanks OL.

I think topping should be done when there are 5 sets of true leaves (5 bladed) or Dag nab it is that when you can start the foliars....? I think you're gonna want to top those girls soon, say in a week or so? Maybe someone else will chime in.

We're the interviews postponed due to snow?

Foliars at 5 sets of true leaves.

 

[weenmeoff]

Ha thanks OL! Do you agree Lady G should top soon?

 

[overlord]

Well, I have topped at the 3rd set of nodes on plants (before using the kit) I intended as mothers with no problems.

However if your following Doc, then I am not sure, he lets his go longer.

 

[overlord]

I think a lot of it will depend on your setup, my veg area doesn't have the same room as Doc.

Currently I judge mine by how close they are to the T5's, 1/2 to 3/4 from reaching the bulbs I FIM.

 

[weenmeoff]

I agree about set up. I tend to try to keep my plants shorter due to the limited clearance in the tent. My cogs is the tallest plant I've ever grown and she has been trained. The other two have been raised to be at her level. Love me a good FIM! In case anyone doesn't know what it means, it's a topping where you don't get the whole top and FIM stands for F%#k I Missed.

 

[Chris Scorpio]

I'd say ask Doc in a pm or his thread
Done and done

Dang I'm good....lol

Yeah. I think I'm going to top and start training in a week. I want them to spread wide. The newest leaves already have 5 points and I swear they are going to start opening up the tent to get a drink themselves soon!

Yup. The interviews were cancelled. We will reschedule later this week or early next. Waiting to hear back on the day.

We have about a foot at least now and still coming down! I've been cooking ALL day! I made a pot of steak chili for freezer lunches, granola, energy date bites for my husband to use as cycling food...ha ha for when the snow melts, and now dinner.
