I do see the difference but I guess I’m missing something. And I don’t know how to explain what I’m asking.

When you pinch it out it damages the stem. A photo period plants reaction to that would be to fix it. Doing so creates many new paths for food and nutrients that were not being provided there previously. This benefits bud because it has access to more food than orher branches you did not do this to.
Ill try to get a better photo tonight when lights are on

Perfect. Thank you. I just needed confirmation on what it did. I will try it. Do you do it towards the end of late vegetation?

Happy I could clarify.
Yes, I did it about 3-5 days before I was going to flip to transition because I knew it would need recovery but not how long. It was about 2 to 2.5 days until I noticed they had perked up

Awesome Todd thank you so much. I’m not very good at putting words together or social media. 
this is really good information. I’m looking forward to trying this method. She looks good from her topping yesterday. 
Thank you

It’s all good! Ask away and if I don’t clearly communicate it, ask me again! I will find a different way of explaining myself so you understand! There is never an issue with that. Always happy to help out.

I’ll pinch just to bend them or tucking a scrog net. Otherwise I chiropractic my stems and branches so you don’t have the problem of heavy buds pulling your branches down you know weighing them down they will be nice and strong and we’ll be able to hold them up but when you get to the tips of the branches where they’re softer I kind of give a little squish with my fingers but other than that pinching is just so you don’t snap the branch so you can even tuck it or put a scrog on it and make sure so they don’t break and guide them in the right place and position but when you chiropractic your plants like the video showed that’s when it’s going to say the big alarm comes on they come up they fix it it puts a lot of power into there and makes your buds bigger. There’s even another way of growing to where you clean everything new growth you prune it and take every leaf off it except for three nodes down from the top. That works very well not a lot of cleaning and when you got your height you need you can actually let it go and it will grow like crazy if you have the right light. I did a little experiment and it worked perfectly but I had it under this cheaper $200 light and it wasn’t moving at all. I put it under my grower Choice lights and it hit two feet and 2 days I mean that s*** boosted up but I was having other problems and it was just an experiment so I threw it away. @Todd.grobo

Thank you for time and explanation. I’m soaking it all in. I’m a first timer but an old timer. I appreciate the time you put aside for helping.

I didn’t really tell you your plants look amazing and they must be getting close. Lots of trichomes.
