veg day 45
I was away from the grow for a couple of days so they are getting flipped to flower a few days later than planned. Tomorrow is stripping unwanted growth before flower. I will remove all but the top few grow-sites on each arm (8 arms per plant). They are incredibly healthy looking, bursting with life. Really nice.
flower day 1
lights are on 12/12 and I have stripped off all the lower growth-sites (side branches) and removed a few fan leaves but for the most part have left leaves on. The plants will be left to stretch now and I will do a defoliation in a few weeks.
Another Telos 008 light has been added because the spread of the plants has outgrown the footprint from the initial pair of lights and I have moved the plants around to make the most of the additional output.
flower day 6
cut off a few more of the weaker side branches on some of the main stems and defoliated a little - the main defoliation will be at the end of week 2/start of week 3. plants are in peak health at the moment so i am looking forward to them starting to stack-up with bud sites. 👌
i'm only wanting 8 main colas per plant so, at the risk of dropping yield a bit, any side growth that doesn't contribute to this outcome is getting chopped 💪
@Godesskat, Thank you mate - at the risk of jinxing the grow, I'm fairly confident this will be my best ever. These plants are just so full of life, it's quite a joy to see.
