k so theres two cut spots.

a fimm cut spot and a trimm cut spot...can you refresh my memory on fimm? is it bending or a style of cutting of the plant?

and if i have fimm cut and get four tops instead of two, i would assume itd get thicker and less light and air will be able to penetrate deep in the plant, also raising humidity.also new four tops would grow slower than just two.....am i correct? which means id have to practice red flagging, a process i learned, where plants get to thick, you basically remove inner old leaves

but then again id assume four main tops would be easier and better to train, as i can bend one in each direction and staking for support, allowing a very bushy n circular plant

sorry i kinda went from a question to a whole nother one...been laborin in the heat all day

which reminds me, anyone got tips for mosquitoes? they're gonna suck me dry
