…and I KNOW that All Gas OG is gonna try to grow into a damn redwood tree.
Check out youtube. Pruning tomato suckers.Still figuring out whether I should strip offshoots or not. On one hand it’s extra bud…but on the other hand it’s more bushiness.
I just watched 2 of them. Interesting (and very similar). I hope only leaving 6-8 branches doesn’t make my buds too big though, that would suck come dry and cure time. I also learned that determinate tomatoes are pretty much the autoflowers of tomatoesCheck out youtube. Pruning tomato suckers.
Safety pin and pipe cleaner is my choice.Did a little LST to the Strawberry Cheesecake…check it out, I made some …not clips but…whatever you’d call them.
I think these might work well for fabric pots. I’ll throw another thread up in case anyone is looking for their own solutions. Hope the metal isn’t bad for the soil…or jamming it into the roots either lol.

Nice! Didn’t think to use safety pins.Safety pin and pipe cleaner is my choice.
pinch and bend for meSafety pin and pipe cleaner is my choice.
Combination of pinch and bend, pipe cleaners, and sometimes even lst clips. However, don't rush out and buy the lst clips. They work, and do work well, but no better than pipe cleaners or super-cropping.pinch and bend for me
I have seen a little about it…but never looked too far into it. I’ll check it out! I really like the idea of shaping these.Combination of pinch and bend, pipe cleaners, and sometimes even lst clips.

@Dothraki it may not be this grow, but I can see you mainlining in the near future. Check out some of the plants on @PipeCarver's profile page. You could say he's done a few and be a wealth of information on the subject. I'm sure others here have done it too.
I grew thai peppers outside. They were real short.Looking at these little 2 Gallon pots makes me wonder two things… how small or big will the plant be and, can I grow Thai Chilis with my weed?
Did you do them from seed? How long do they take?I grew thai peppers outside. They were real short.
I bought little plants, they didn't make until late summer/fall.Did you do them from seed? How long do they take?
3" is perfect all you need is a 9w lightbulb. I don't use the jiffy pots anymore. Now I put the right in the solo cup of cocoloco, and put a baggie on topAnyone have tips on taking clones?
Got 2 lowest branches on Sour Power I’d like to clone…but they are only a few inches long. I’ve already started reducing the light hours (about 45min - 1 hour each day) and as I understand it’s best to take clones in veg.
I have a little 2x2x3 tent and a plastic dome.
I will need to pick up some rooting gel and some kind of light for the 2x2x3 tent.
If I take the lowest branch, should I wait until it gets 6-8” long? Right now it’s like 3” long… also should I keep it vegging longer before taking clones? I only have 2 to take so I don’t chop off main cola branches (I think).
Here’s the plant…

and here’s where (i assume) I would take the clones..

Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated!!
Is there a cheap light that would work well for clones? They have a small LED at the grow shop but it’s $50
Oh wow! Was that a little branch like the ones in my pic? Would that work in soil too?3" is perfect all you need is a 9w lightbulb. I don't use the jiffy pots anymore. Now I put the right in the solo cup of cocoloco, and put a baggie on top

yes and yes. it can go right in soil with a cover, 75-80f very little light. less than half what a new seedling gets.Oh wow! Was that a little branch like the ones in my pic? Would that work in soil too?
Oh cool. So I could clip it, stick it into the dome with just a 9 watt light bulb over top? Would that mean 9w LED or actual real light bulb?yes and yes. it can go right in soil with a cover, 75-80f very little light. less than half what a new seedling gets.
