First Grow - Jumping into the Deep End

I can't believe how quickly these plants are growing. Early last week, I LST & defoliated all the plants to try to expose the middle a bit more. Two days later, you could no longer tell. Switched to 12/12 light schedule on Friday (10/22). It has only been a couple of days, but you can already see them starting to stretch. Everyone is growing great, will be getting bucket changes with first week flower nutes today. Did a little work on the tent as well. I found a 48"x16" closet shelf at lowes, and mounted it on the back of the tent. This allowed me to get everything off the floor and mount it. The plants are still small, but with LOTS of bud sites. I am excited to see where this goes...
