Tangie'matic - FastBuds

@Avital, I don't think you could hurt then with this technique unless you're brutal or leave it in too long. But mine grew so much despite the ponytail that it would've come out anyway after 1.5 days. It's really low stress. Try it out! :)

@RandomNoob, Thank you for this specific answer. What your opinion on ponytailing after topping ? Will it harm the growth if I do so ?

@Avital, thanks for checking out my diary and asking! Ponytailing is a *very* temporary technique. There's more about it on AFN, but basically the idea is to tie the top couple of fans *and* apical meristem which in turn exposes the lower nodes. You can't really leave the ponytail in tho...because the top growth will force it's way out of the tie *or* you'll wind up inadvertently topping. Don't get scared of it tho. It really is less stress than bending and tying down. You just have to re-tie it daily until your satisfied with the under-nodes' growth. Pruning fans would have a similar effect (exposure downstairs), but I'm not ready to prune.

@RandomNoob, Ah sorry to hear that. Good luck, and for any doubts let us know! 💪🌱 Enjoy!

@Fast_Buds, happy to oblige! The first Gorilla Glue was a complete dud, but the second took. Fingers crossed that it looks as nice as the Tangie'matic!

@MarsHydroLED, thanks! Much appreciated! Sub and stop by again soon for cool time lapses. 😀
