It is going to take a while for this plant to recover from all of the limbs that I cut off. I have not topped the plant yet but everything else came off that won't be used to build the manifold. I have intentionally slowed this plant down by causing a lot of trauma but I am confident that she will make a good recovery because it was a very healthy and prolific plant before I cut it all off. I slowed this plant down because I had to re-plant a new seed for a different plant that shares the tent space - my plan is to be able to obviously flower them both at the same time - but also I am hoping to allow the neighbor plant to mature well and hopefully mostly catch up to this one before I flower them.
@herbalistssword, thanks man yeah I really love the way this works if you can give the plant time to get fairly stout before you cut it the first time then they respond really well to it and it really forms a strong base!! Happy growing!
