I got the clones Thursday and put them into the tent with the bag open and lights on so they could breathe and acclimate. Friday, they were transplanted into 1 gal prune pots of Fox Farm Ocean Forrest (FFOF) soil, only. Watering with water initially was a huge mistake. I did not check the water or adjust to pH neutral, and I also forgot to account for the nutrients in the soil, so by Sunday, the leaves were starting to curl under and fold up like a taco due to nutrient deficiency. Sunday they were fed with. I forgot to take runoff PPM before starting nutrient feeding, which was also another mistake because now I'm basically guessing the buffer. I also had trouble regulating the humidity initially, but after opening floor/ceiling vents and adjusting the fan, the humidity has been fluctuating around 50-60% and temp around 70 F. Plants began to make a come-back Tuesday, and by the following Thursday they had grown to ~6 inches tall, and signs of nutrient deficiency had faded. Next time I won't transplant directly into FFOF, and instead, use a 50/50 mix of FFOF and 70/30 coco coir/pearlite. I think FFOF is too hot on its own which is why they curled up. Friday, the lights were lowered to ~10" above plants and fed with the last of week 1 nutrients. The idea is to force them to eat with the hopes they dry out a little before I start wk 2 of nutrients. I have yet to check if my PPMs are even remotely in the proper range. I also trimmed the 2-3 of the oldest leaves off of several of the healthiest-looking plants. They just hit 5 nodes, so I think I can start topping them soon.

I've uploaded photos with general plans for my next topping... I was hoping to get some feedback before I chop. Thanks in advance!

I assume you’re working from clone - because of the staggered nodes. This makes topping tricky. As you can see from your previous topping, when there’s not symmetrical growth, topping doesn’t work as well. It’s a totally different technique when topping clones compared to from seed IMO

Yep, about the right size. Love your super clean and tidy grow space! They seem to be lacking from phosphorous though (not potassium), hence the reddish stems and slight discoloration in the leaves (pic 3). Giving them a P/K booster in addition to their grow nutrients won't hurt them, it will only do good things. I have had many plants with 13 blades on one leaf over the years, 7 is pretty average, 9 is more normal and 11 is quite special. Hope this helps, Organoman.

I have two partially split stems. It looks to me like the plant is already healing itself, but I've never encountered this before so I'm not sure if I should be supporting the split area, or just letting her be? I don't want it to get worse...

It will be fine, now that it has dried out and has started healing itself, there is no point trying to stick them back together, which only works if done right after the injury occurring. Keep it dry and there will be no problems, if you cover it with tape/ties etc this can lead to moisture where it shouldn't be and then this can then lead to fungus and/or mould attacking. Best thing is to leave it and keep it dry. I have had plants with split stems 8 inches long and fall into two parts and just left them and they were fine. You can support the branches so the split does not get worse, but now that it has dried out, don't close it up, this is likely to cause more damage than just leaving it be. Hope this helps, Organoman.

Trichomes are beginning to appear shriveled. Many of them are cloudy, and occasionally I’ll see one that’s begun to turn amber. I’ve got first harvest jitters - I don’t want to jump the gun and harvest early, but I also don’t want to wait too long. I’m on day 5 of flush.

Hi littlenugget, You're on point don't worry about the "late" flush. At most you could wait come days and harvest some and then a week more and harvest the remaining plants. That way you could label them as a more active effect and one as more chilling effect. Very neat grow btw.

Plenty of growth left on those id say and no sign of any end of life colours ? I would leave another 7 days and see then , there all still very strong and no signs of drooping seen towards the end.
