Did you keep the cuts to clone or pitch them? Trim day doesn't have to bring anything but a tear of joy to your eye when you see all the clones/sisters/daughters/whatever you like to call them take shape as you trim the mother plant.

If growing autos, disregard.

I'm new to all of this, so can someone explain the reasoning here? Cut the plants back to make them grow more stems or produce more in the stems that are left on?

I already know about the practice to pinch of the main stem to make them grow more which if I understood correctly gives more to harvest. Is this similar?

I always manifold my inside plants, but just let my outdoor plants ride. I'm pumped to see your harvest numbers for sure.

Man I totally understand the concept and appreciate the symmetry of the plant, but stang does it take time.

Now the real torture begins…
