And wih he iing o moraoriums and he new aws come subsania eesand coss o he medica marijuana providers here. In Denver or exampe, henew ordinance, which goes ino eec on March rs, requires dispensary ownerso now pay new ees o over $5,000 o say in business.

    Te sae is aready charging paiens $90 a head or he priviege o having heirconsiuiona righ o possess and smoke heir meds.

    So where is a o his money going? We he answer is no cear, and medicamarijuana proponens are crying ou. In a recen eer o Te CooradoDeparmen o Heah, Rob Corry, a eading medica marijuana awyer here, asksjus ha.

    opposed o simpy pucking o he growing ips by hand.

    4.) Kow what youre pruig

    Never prune more han he singe growing ip, or upper-

    mos node, rom any branch on he growing pan. the upper-

    mos growing ip o an un-pruned marijuana pan wi aways

    be more poen han ha o he op o a pruned pan grown

    in simiar condiions. Bu es no ge caugh rippin onjus he op. les hink abou he whoe pan . Pruning he

    aes branches ensures ha he ower branches grow upward,

    orming a arger surace area or he igh o cover. the cear

    uid ha oen ows rom he end o a newy pruned branch

    conains subsances which sea he wound and aid he heaing

    process. Ahough i is recommended ha you remove a

    dying eaves rom he pan, you shoud resis he empaion o

    prune oo many heahy eaves. Keep in mind ha even hough

    i may be beer deveoped, a pruned marijuana pan does no

    aways produce more buds han an un-pruned pan. Anoher

    good reason or pruning is o ake heahy cuings rom a

    srong growing, or avorie pan, or urher hydroponic

    deveopmen (coning).

    5.) Use i eeded as your pruig rule o thumb

    Marijuana growers oen prune heir pans in an aemp o

    imi heir heigh and preven unwaned deecion. I you have

    ha ype o operaion, a o his is probaby od ha or you. I

    you are he average home grower, remember ha by pruning

    a growing ip, you are removing he mos poen par o he

    pan, hereby spoiing is chance o reaching u mauriy. By

    pruning a he buds a harves ime, raher han cuing he

    sem o above he ground, you coud easiy harves your pana second ime. One grea advanage o pruning your marijuana

    pan is ha youre owering heir resisance o harmu naura

    enemies such as insecs, ungus and emperaure ucuaions.

    Do no prune any growing ips i you noice ha your

    pans heah is decining or has sared osing eaves. Ahough

    smoking your pruned ips is ok, pans shoud be pruned o

    deveop heir growh, raher han or smoking purposes.

    Whie i may be emping o prune emae buds during eary

    owering, your harves wi be severey reduced by doing

    so. Cannabis indica is geneicay smaer and bushier han

    cannabis saiva, and usuay requires ess pruning.

    So remember, be paien and concise when pruning. You

    know when you need a haircu don you? We he same

    paience and concern shoud be aken wih your ie babies.

    Good luck, andhappy growing!!
