Depends, they all work great. TOPing is easier; FIMing works great but you don't know how colas will result afterwards. LST is a bit more intensive in the work required, but has the advantage of not delaying the grow process, usually TOP or FIM will take a week for the plant to recover.

Training?How exactly should I go about this plant when it comes to training? I've not grown a fem in a while and I'm just looking for a full canopy (or as full as possible). I know about topping, fimming and tieing down the branches, but is there some other/better techniques?3 years ago

Bruce Banner specific needsI was wondering what specific needs does the Bruce Banner #3 strain needs for climate and nutrients, grow calendar and training techniques but my grow space is small : 60 x 40 cm. (23 x 15 inches) so I should probably go for a sog, big bud or lollypopping. ThanksSetup. Strains - Photoperiod

HST pinch/snap method?I want to try the pinch/snap HST method on this plant but she's in my tent with multiple other plants so my concern is stressing her too much and turning her into a hermaphrodite. Has anyone tried this method before and what do you recommend?
