Weed out monstercrop overgrowth?

This thing has so many tops. Already took 50+ out and bow some are thickening up. Should I give extra silica or just a stronger feed? Take more out till like 30 mains only?

That sure is a pretty plant, looks like you might want to take off a bunch of leaves where she can get some light and air in the middle. Nebulas got good information on how to do that but I don't know how to tell you where it is on GWE, maybe some one else knows where it's at . Good Luck
 
Im not worried too much about light penetration atm especially since its outdoors but more just thickening up some branches so they will support decent sized buds. She was a pretty flat table for about a week after coming outside and really should have had a much larger container earlier on. Has def taken to the ground though now so just trying to help her beef up
 
hey GD I wouldn't worry about the stems they will thicken when they need to the plant can get all the silica it needs outside and if you want to trim trim fan leafs not tops .lollypop her if you want. I still lolly pop my outside stuff just to put all the energy into the buds instead of little buds and I'm proud of plants that have more than 24 tops
 
It looks like it is growing in a shaded area. You need more light to get a stronger plant. Try trimming the tree or shrub branches that block the light and shade the plant.

Shes a clone I reverted back to veg(wasnt actual monstercrop) in mid April. So about 12 weeks. I should have thinned her out sooner but had her on the back burner until the gypsy moths finally cleared out. Almost decided to scrog her but wanted to put her outside so roots could spread.
 
Thank you OJH! I could really see everything beefing up yesterday evening.. just got her in the ground 2 weeks ago so my guess is the roots have really taken hold. Have to wait and see how the rest of July does her... trying to remember because its been awhile for outdoors for me but August buds start forming and gets the stretch going?
 
Shes got plenty of sun. About 3/4 day full sun with a break from full (partial sun) at midday for about 2 to 3 hrs when its super hot out. Pic was evening on a cloudy day but really gets the sunset on her beautifully at that time if it was only one of those days :) also the lumens outside are rediculous. Can grow monsters in the woods with minimal sun. Buds wont be as dense but plants will grow big none the less. I was really just looking for advise to jumpstart thickening her up.. like is there something nutrient wise that i can give her to aide in that?
 
And I def adjust the bush shes growing next to every so often when needed. Even though its legal in my state you cant forget avout thieves... and she is going to wreak
 
hey GD my last grow the buds didn't start getting hard till the 8th week , I use a pk boster it has 3 steps open seasime,beasty buds and cha chin. each one is given during bloom at different times
 
I'm currently in the thick of a outside grow,the girls are starting to preflower and I'm going to wait 2 to 3 weeks and lollie pop the stuff on the lower third of each plant.
your plant looks fine but a little to full in the middle for me.u should open the middle for air flow and to give buds room to grow this is just my .02 cents GD and what works for me. As for silica I use with each watering full strength along with neem oil Every ten days for bugs the combo seems to work in my neck of the woods anyway. Good luck with the grow. PEACE
 
How many weeks was the mother into flower when you took the clones? She looks good. As OJH said the lower branches will thicken once they grow up through the canopy. Do you know what strain? Oh and by the way monster cropping refers to either a clone taken from a flowering plant and put back into veg or a plant that has been flowered and then revegged.
I plan to take clones at the end of the third week of flower. I also want to try revegging the mothers if successful I will either put the clones outside or into flower with the mothers. Then clone again at 3weeks.

Actually thinking back this isnt even a monstercrop but a gsc seed I had started behind the others then didnt bring into the tent I bought when moved flower room onto it because was smaller than the closet they were in. It flowered for about 3 weeks. I have some pics of her journey ill post here in a few

Cleaned her up. Took a bunch of cuts.. thinking time to start pushing the bloom nutrients. Maybe wait another week? Would changing nutrients now help her flower sooner therefore finish sooner? Only been fed 2 or 3 times since put into the ground but she seems to be growing and stretching daily still but not to much besides initial preflowers anywhere on her. Have this grotek bloom booster sample thats like 0-50-40 or something and well I guess thatd sure be a jumpstart but never used it before
