She’s coming along really nicely. I think the stretch has started because she’s growing so quick. I’ll probably have to do some more LST later to keep the tops even. I’m feeding two waterings in a row with half what’s recommended. I just really don’t want to burn them
Good job so far but I've notice both the LST wiring and some heavy defoliation that you made. My experience tells me that the best defoliation procedure on automatic grows normally should be done within the 4th to 7th week (late veg to early flowering) and normally I defoliate in a lower rate that you have done in just one week and I do this due to the fact that the stress defoliation in a rate that you have done, stop the grow during a week to ten days and do to the short automatic cycles a stoppage of 10 days have a great impact on the final overall yeld. My strategy normally passes by defoliate the primary fan leafs on the grow base level and after that removing the "vampire" flowering sketches and as I tell you I do the process within 3 weeks at a lower level that your option by defoliate in great extension in only one time as you have done. Normally on photoperiodic strains I do the defoliation as you have applied in this case, but within the automatic grows I avoid to done a heavy defoliation on a single time, precisely do to the fact that a big time defoliation "stops" the development at least from a week to ten days, and if you have a full cycle of 70 days on an automatic strain, it is like stopping about a sixth part of the cycle and you have a strong impact on the final yeld both on production and in overall quality of the buds - terpenes and density.
