Too tall, can I whack it?

[Slartibartfast]

I have a Willie Nelson growing in a large pot outdoors and it's up to 5"5" tall now. It looks like it might be beginning to flower but it's still too early for me to tell. If it gets any taller, I'll have a visibility problem. Anybody know how much crop I will lose if I cut a foot off the top before the flowers get any more developed? Any better ideas?

That's my Citralah behind it. I'll be smoking that in a few weeks

If it's flowering, it is pretty much done growing. The only thing that will make it taller is the main cola. I definitely wouldn't cut the top off, thats where your largest bud will form. Worst comes to worst, train it to bend over and tie the top down.

Bend her over , she will do amazing things and stay good and short. IMO Much Love.

 

[TheStickyIcky]

Bend her over and tie her up, but don't whack it!




haha.

 

[SirSmoke-a-Lot]

lol cutting off the main cola!! lol haha dont do that.. just tie her down if you have to.. but don't cut the main cola... if you must, then u must, but that is where you are going to get the most bud from, but take ur safety into consideration first, then your bud

 

[Slartibartfast]

Got it... don't cut the main cola.

Thanks guys. Okay now bend over baby while I tie you down!

LOL...

dont whack your willie

But it's okay to smoke your own willie, right? Just not in public I guess.

 

[New_2_Chronic]

Better your own then someone elses....

 

[TokeWithHope]

haha hilarious thread guys! ima say funniest ive seen yet. but agreed its a bad idead to cut now not only will u lose most of the bud from that flowering spot you could cause the plant to hermie due to shock and also the plant would use more vegetative energy in trying to grow back the system rather than producing a thicker bud. good luck with that *****

 

[Aurora_Indicas_Dad]

lol,great thread.whos the breeder of your willie?

 

[godspeedsuckah]

:banana: All this talk about bending her over and tying her up made me forget what we were discussing......oh yeah, Dont be silly and whack your willie!! Bury the pot and then carefully, starting at the middle of the plant or slightly higher, start training the plant to be tied down. you may only be able to tie her a few inches at a time. once the middle is secured than tie the top the same way. after a few days you may be able to tie her down a little further if you need too. a little at a time or you will snap your willie right off!!!

 

[Muddy Paws]

I prefer to whack mine cause I'm afraid I'll hurt it if I bend it. It curves on it's own a little bit, but that doesn't seem to be doin the trick.

 

[godspeedsuckah]

:doh: :rofl: TMI Muddy. LOL

 

[Slartibartfast]

lol,great thread.whos the breeder of your willie?

I don't know who the breeder is. My indoor-growing friend gave me a cutting, but I'll ask next time I see him. Last year he gave me an AK48 cutting and it grew beautifully outdoors. I harvested it in late September and I'm still smoking it, almost out now though.

 

[godspeedsuckah]

That ak looked purple... yuuuuuuumy. I am real excited to see how that willie turns out. good grow!!
