@Montuno, sure. Hurting plant too much is bad.
I crushed stem and got bad result. Part of stem died and I got brown stripe on that stem. Rot was from in stem core.
In my humid climate, broken branches incite rot.
Insects around here are big and vicious. They don’t wait for plant to be weak. They attack anyway. While they eat my plants, they look at me and laugh.
I hurt stem only on for nap days before harvest. And the t works on native Sativa very well. These Sativa never wants to finish on their own and keep making new pistils.
For Indica and auto, there is no need se for a em splitting and stem ringing.
