The drawback is I FIMD them for height control as well as for experimentation, and they were flowered less than a week after the cut. With no time to develop in veg growth, Im pretty sure they wont grow out to their potential. By the looks of the they could use one more week in veg minimum to get a good idea how they would develop. Itll still look interesting with a bunch of couple inch buds sitting on top of a stem

So far, I like it!

I'm feeling either really blonde, or really drunk right now. (Could be a little of both) But.... What the F*** did I miss? Hmmmm.... Are you telling me you topped some plants, rooted them and then started flowering them right away? If so, Is this a good thing or a bad thing? Never know what information I'm collecting might come in handy some day. HeHeHe!

FIM is a style of topping
permalink

You basically cut off 90% of the tip you want to top. The reamining 10% is supposed to make a multi-cola top, like 2-8 colas growing from the same stem. The colorful term for the procedure is F-ck I missed! since its success is a 50/50 proposition. Ill update the pics soon...it should become clearer as each top grows away from the others

Excellent. A solid posting on FIM with results for us here at HC.com. (I know, I know, Overgrow.com has some as well)

Nice job Smokin. Glad to see you tossing up the shots of a still experimental technique for the rest of us to look at. Thanks.
