I have been using a new technique in my grows by harvesting the tops and letting the bottom half of the plant mature and get more light.
Everywhere I cut I put a mixture of cinnamon and aloe right on the wound. I don’t know how to gauge stress at this point of the grow but I can tell the bottom buds swell a bit and the trichomes turn just like the tops.
I have only tried this on autos so far. I would say it has been successful after 3 harvests.
