25. This is called "ponytailing"

The idea here is to spur side branch growth to maximize bud (flower) sites.
Very low stress. No cutting.
I run 4 sessions 8 hours each time during lights on.
It's making a difference so far.
I use pipe cleaner type wire that is soft. Gently pull up the bigger leaves at the top and bundle then gently with the wire.
It's my first attempt so I'm a bit nervous.
The two middle plants... it's their 4th night.
The others their first.

Bushier bushes make me...
