dle of the pack or turn the plant around. It only
takes a day or two for the plant to bend back straight again.
If your
plants can not be moved, such as in the case of hydroponics in
conjunction with a ScrOG grow, then you may have to tie your plants
up so that they do not bend.

Figure 11.1 - Here is an example of some tied up buds.
If you are outdoors and you have a massive problem with this
then you may have to cut away some surrounding foliage to allow
more light to get in at your plants. If you can not do this then try to use
a small stake and thread, such as bamboo, to keep your plant upright.
Remember that if your plants are bending then they are trying to tell
you something. They need more direct light!
Pruning:
Many a marijuana cultivator have taken a pair of clippers to
the top of their plant just above the Akgummiegun last branch formation during the
3rd or 4th week of vegetative growth. The top is removed by shearing
it away at the stem. This can also be done during the thinning stages.
248
What happens next is that the main stem may split off in two or more
directions. This creates a V shape at the top of your plant. The end
results after flowering are two or more top colas instead of one. Now,
many a cannabis grower will tell you that this is a great thing to do
and sometimes it is. Two top colas instead of one does sound appealing
but alas it must Paypal big bud big Paypal big bud big Seeds be said that this TOPPING method of pruning does not
always work out the way you think it will.

Figure 11.4 - This is a good example of what a young topped plant
looks like. As you can see the main stem has been clipped to produce 2
new stems. Picture by Strawdog.
Sometimes the plant will produce two small top colas instead
of two big ones. This really depends on the strain and the
environment. Many a grower have managed to bring a plant into
growing more than six top colas by this method. Each strain will have
a threshold for bud production, which can not be improved on. Some
plants when grown fully without pruning do not reach their threshold.
The strain Blueberry is a good example of this. If you grow blueberry
without topping you will not achieve maximum bud production from
that plant, but if you do top the blueberry you will. Other strains are
not so flexible and by topping you will not increase bud production.
The two top colas will simply be sharing the same volume of bud that
a single cola would have produced on the same strain. So pruning for
production is strain related and grow related. You need to find a strain
251
that responds well to topping.
It is advised that you experiment with this pruning method.
Do this with 2 out of 10 females with every grow you do. You will find
in time that during this vegetative prune you will be able to shape your
plant. Plants are generally pruned 3 - 4 weeks into their vegetative
cycle but can be

Marijuana's reported effect on memory is one of the more fascinating aspects of the

these are immediate, recent, and long-term memory. The marijuana smoker never forgets
who he is, who his friends are,
Seattle Big Bud or where he is, but he may forget what he has been saying
just ten seconds before. Weil and Zinberg pinpoint this speech impairment to marijuana's
selective impact on the various memory functions in the brain:
If this effect can be demonstrated, it is likely that it is, itself, a manifestation
of a more general acute effect of marihuana on a specific mental function:
namely, an interference with ultra-short (or immediate) memory.
By
immediate memory we mean memory over the past few seconds. To be
more precise, the interference seems to be with retrieval of information
while it is an immediate memory storage; once it passes into the next
(recent-memory) storage, it again seems to be easily accessible to
consciousness.l7]
Whatever the physiological foundation of the effect, my informants commonly report it

Lighting was a 50/50 mix of 1000w MH and HPS. The plants were grown in soil with organic ferts mixed into the
soil before planting. The plants started out under 40w fluorescent light in 16 oz. cups for approximately 4
weeks, then transplanted to 2 gallon pots under the MH and HPS. Plants were vegged for another 4 weeks,
then the lights were turned back to 12/12. After the females were identified, most were transplanted into 5
gallon pots. No CO2 was used. The seeds were Sensi Seeds products purchased through Ubino.
Two packs of seeds were also used for the Hawaiian. The germination rate for this strain was a perfect 40/40.
The branching for this strain was quite a bit more "vertical" with much less branching than the Californian.
Some were mostly a dominant main cola. I think this strain may be well suited for a SOG set up. Several of
these plants were also subject to mold. Of the 12 best, finished heights are 42 inches for the smallest, 64
inches for the tallest, with the average at 52 1/4. Dry, manicured weights are as follows: min. 36g, max. 65g,
average 48.6g. The flavor of this strain is a bit citrus. Some of the bud has a definite "lemon pledge" flavor to
the smoke. A good up high, but I have to smoke a little more of it than most other bud to get the effect that I
like. Many of these showed some hermie traits, like growing anthers on stalks among the female pistils, but
there were no seeds from these hermies, so no harm, no foul. High Dog
