Week 1 veg was about 2.5 weeks after Germination..i consider them seedlings for 2.5 weeks after Germination....i topped them at beginning of week one veg because they all were showing true leaves and had atleast 3 nodes..
Despite SEXXPOTT not being to happy with LST and having more rigid stems the growth is explosive and very healthy...JIBOO takes very well to LST and mainlining and grows nice and compact..GODFATHEROG also takes to LST and mainlining very well and nodes seem to be a bit more spaced than JIBOO but still pretty compact..decided to defoliate near end of week 4
Had to do another defoliation just after defoliating in week 4...they reset large leaves within a week...i also laid/spread the canopy a bit more to allow airflow and light...i most likely will Defoliate again once more before flowering then not until week 3 flowering, and only lightly at that point..plants don't reproduce leaves after week 3 an will mostly start focusing on bud development..removing to many leaves at this stage will reduce yeilds and plants ability to convert light into energy..
Ive switched to 12/12 light cycle...i will not start counting flowering for 7 days or until week 8..i consider first 7 days of 12/12 light cycle transition period...i also call first 2-3 weeks of 12/12 light cycle stretch period...i find if needed you can still LST for the first 2 weeks of 12/12 light cycle..
On average flowering technically truly begins 7 days after 12/12 switch...i waite 7 days because plants dont instantly Flower right at 12/12 switch most take 4-8 days to start actually flowering...it takes time for the hormones to be triggered and start taking effect, so i waite 7 days an consider that the transition period...i suggest waiting on any bloom boosters until after the transition period..also ((Brut worm casting and natures living soil is mixed into soil at listed rates not mixed into water water, all other nutrients are mixed with distilled water.))
