These girls (hopefully) are 38 days old from seedling today. It's my first grow, but I think they're doing good. I was wondering if I should try doing any training technique? Any suggestion/feedback appreciate
also Im only keeping 4 of them in the tent so idk if i should wait until I only have 4 in there

cheers

alright so I started topping a few and if they don't die Ill keep topping them. Does these look right to you guys? I wasn't sure because none of my plants have the "baby nodes" on the top that could grow into main ones.. so I did this..

DUDE.. You're asking for help on something pretty basic yet I counted 16 pots..

Do you have any clue wtf you're about to get yourself into?

16 plants on a first run is retarded. I should know. I did it too.

Good luck friend. I'll be sending you my prayers.

You know you're right.. I didn't see that. I was busy counting 16 pots. But now I'm even more confused..

Get 16 to maturity but only keep 4?

Sounds like post apocalyptic China..

I stopped reading at "16 plants" + "retarded"
might be pretty basic but was still my first grow and I was afraid of killing my plants and that's what the forum is here for.

the ones I don't keep in there is going outdoors, not in the trash :) I'm just trying to make sure I keep 4 strong ones/ female ones. now please, with that attitude, don't post on here anymore, I pass on your help

They look nice, you cant sex yet? Just make shure you have a fan on them at all times when your lights are on, you can start low stress training, the fan helps, sometimes I take a slider attach a fishing weight attach to my branches and the weights pull my branches back this will help to bulk them up, or you can gently pull your branches back and forth but watch out you dont snap 1.

i keep 3 fans in the tent but none pointed to my plants, so they dont shake. Should I start pointing one to them?

You don’t need air blowing right on them. I use oscillating fan so it blows across tops. Main thing is keeping airflow between tops n lights. Pushing heat up. And yes you can train. I’d start bending the entire top over carefully not to break it and untucking any covered lower branches which will almost be even with your tops once bent. A little time with light like that all your small branches will now be future hosts of colas. They can also be topped too. To form 2 in every spot. But as said keep space in mind.

They shouldn't shake, but should have their leaves "rustle in the breeze.."..blowing on leaves can cause wind burn and later on mess with the trichomes..I have a small one blowing (on low) across the top of the canopy, one underneath and the exhaust fan..no problems in a year this way. I also will bounce a breeze across the tent's walls..moving air is a necessary..

It is retarded.. Stop being a precious snowflake.. There was no attitude. I went by the little you said. That's the reaction you can expect when one thinks you're engaging in pot abuse.. Be more specific next time.

Sorry if I hurt your feelings though. That was not the intent. I'll attempt to use more politically correct versions of the word "retarded".

Growing 16 plants as your first indoor run is..... foolish...

And as for 16 plants I know you’re keeping like 4 but there are people on here run 16+ in a 4x4 and do great. It’s all about how you like to run em. Running ton of clones off strong mothers and flowering quick will wall to wall cola that tent. And need very minimum veg time. Many ways n all have their pros n cons
