Pruning & flagging your plants to maximize yeild

[Greyskull]

Aloha everyone.

I was perusing the Urban Grower last night and I came across a video clip of Remo explaining the benefits & demonstrating the technique of plant pruning & flagging.

I think they're great techniques that a lot of people don't understand, and therefore spread misinformation about pruning and flagging. Its just another means of achieving an ends.... its not better than one way or another - just another option for the grower to discover.

IF YOU HAVEN'T DONE IT BEFORE DON'T BE SCURRED!!!
Just go slowly... a little clean up 6-7 days in, and then a little more 20-21 days in.

Seriously, Urban Grower is a great point of reference. ITS FUCKING VIDEOS OF GROW ROOMS, FOLKS! Yeah they are a little AN happy... good for them. THANKS AN!
Tons of info about environment control, nutrient mixing... all kinds of stuff. If you are not checking this out weekly you are not doing yourself or your plants any favors.

I cant believe nobody else has said anything by now... I'm still watching and trying to catch up.... Having the FD coming to check out the safety of your grow room and making sure the police know you ARE growing, Wow! pretty wild.

Im all about the 3rd week trim down, but Ive have discoverd that if you pluck fan leaves before week 3 the buds are stunted. after week 3 its amazing

Yeah that kinda freaks me out too watching him crush all those trichs just to see how solid it is.

On the pruning side of things...I had already done some pretty consistent pruning then had some nute def. and had to prune a lil more and am seeing pretty solid yield off of one plant under CFL's. I'll post some pics up later...

I top my plants at every third node. Produces about 8-12Colas when flowering.
