Sure. Be very careful about light pollution into your dark cycle though. And by the time your plants get into swing with the whole 12/12 thing, they may double or more in size. I would say stress the tops (Bend them over real good) so you force further branching before your buds actually show. How tall are they and how tall is your space?

I have about 10 foot ceilings I’m thinking about getting plant wire and bending the top, they have been switched to 12/12 for about a week now I’m mostly just worried about the light par they have seemed to like it so far but I know demands are higher for flower. Will the bud just be lack luster or will it die all together

Just skimpy is the best guess. You’ll probably get bud. Just not much.

On another note I have been using dr Jim’s chicken soup for the soil as a stand alone nutrient it has a 4-2-4 ratio is this a good product to use in the future?

If its working for you it's a good product. How does your tent have a 10 foot ceiling did cut it in half?? lmao Also top and lst your plants next time. Even canopy makes it so buds get their fair share of light and increases yield. I would just flower when your ready . How long have you been growing these?

Hello 2Bad they are in a open room in the basement no tent they about 2 months old overall and a little over a week into 12/12 I’m going to give plant training a try next time I just wanted to stress them as little as I can. Is it true plants have increased chances to herm due to the stress from topping? I did manipulate the side colas to get around the big fan leaves but that all I did.

I doubt topping would cause a herm. Light leaks on the other hand will for sure that's something i've experienced.

You could do so much more with those. Read up on pinching and fiming. I horizontal grow. Just started with this one.

it depends on genetics the short stubby genetics always need extra veg time but lanky ones usually don’t stall much

No, a plant takes as long as it takes. This is 61 days of flower. I scrog but a more often used way is to manifold. Which is when plant gets 5 nodes pinch at 3rd and clean branches 1 and 2. When those 2 branches grow to 5 nodes again pinch at 3rd node. And so on. My way is horizontal growing. This has all branches growing straight up. All you need to do is stretch branches out as they grow. Main thing is to fill your canopy as much as you can.
