Any advice on whatās the best growing technique to optimize bud production?
Iāve seen so many techniques but they seem to be mostly for indoor, or to have a bushy plant that doesnāt grow in height. But I donāt mind the height, so which technique you guys think is best? Thanks

Hi there šš¾
Are you going to be growing outdoors all the way through? If so wait till the plant reaches 4th node then top the plant, wait for the new shoots tie them down then keep topping to make the plant grow outwards rather than upwards, or if height will be a issue look up main lining whoās involves keeping the plant low and topping until flower good luck bro š¤š¾āļøš¾

Flowering stageI have not seen much change in the plants in the last two weeks. No growth. I know I have entered the flowering stage but I don't know what to do next in terms of lighting. Should I go from 18 hours of light a day to 12 hours? I have the option to only turn on the red lights.Week 6
