After a brutal week of cold and wind and rain spliced with just enough sunshine to keep her alive she has come out the other end...only a few weeks till the vernal equinox when the temperature slides into the safe zone for the next 6 months...that will take the pressure off a little..then I should have pretty good going until December Solstice when the Passion vine hoppers emerge en-masse like a plague.
@@Alchemy_Aotearoa,Hahaha, I love stories like this, from the fact that you accidentally found a technique, to the fact that the police were confused😂, very cool story. I wish you all the best.
@Ancient_Genetics, Aw thanks Nitro, this is an old school technique I learned by mistake initially. I believe it started when a storm came and completely smashed my young plants many many years ago. I gave up on them and went back home for a month to raise some more seedlings (we didn't do clones much back then) when I got in to plant my new plants the old ones had turned into bushes almost a meter high while I was away. This is where I learned about multiple branching and stress training although I didn't know what it was called back then. I would recommend this technique if you do it early in the season with a large clone or seedling you will see amazing bushes. I once got caught by police with one big plant like this and because it had multiple stems growing from out of the ground I had to fight to prove it wasn't many plants planted close together...I won eventually when I got them to reluctantly dig the stem and rootball from under the ground...when they did so they could see clearly it was one stem and one rootball. Back then even the police were impressed with that. Funny old times.
