Will taking about 1/8 off top of flowers promote fattening ?
Homestickycannabisstarted grow question 4 years ago
Hey all. I am curious to know if back building buds is actually effective. I seen a YouTube video where they actually "toped" the buds. The person took about 1/8 off the top of all his flowers. They were about 5 weeks into flower. He stated that it helps fatten up the buds ????

Complete rubbish.
Leave them to grow naturally, they will only grow as fat as their genetics are programmed to do.
Topping buds will just reduce yields.

I have seen the same video. I have never tried it and haven't come across anyone one this site doing it. I was tempted to have a go but never did. I personally think it could be a load of crap. If your curious only do it on a couple of buds.

Gorilla Cookies Hermies?? Hope not, help please!Gorilla Cookies Auto (Fastbuds), 3 plants.
Everything seemed fine, they're starting week 3 flowering.
But I saw a shape that made me think they might've become hermies =(
Not sure if those are polen sacks or just a shape of a soon-to-be bud.
One of the pics I circled the shape

Rate the Bud - 6 Week completed floweringSo this is my first time growing with using BioThrive grow, bloom, calmag bottle ferts. Would greatly appreciate any feedback on improvements, those 2-3 leaves with yellow spots seem concerning.
On 'honest' scale of 1 to 10, how are my buds looking for week 6 in flowering?
