I severely torture my plants but really, some of it is genetics, some is training. That girl was a photo and she was about 8 weeks there. I'm experimenting though with applying similar training to autos. Manifolding is generally considered an advanced technique but I like to make things difficult. Would not recommend for a first grow but hey, I learned a lot.Phwoar that's a serious growth spurt! How did you get the stem and branches so thick on a plant that looks so young??
