Chubby Gorilla! Peyote Gorilla Mainline

Hey growmies! this week was a lot of experimentation for me, the Nebula haze guide I follow doesn't Quite work for my plant, her nodespacing is so tight and she's so short I had to mass defoliate the center multiple times this week. She appears healthy and responds to the stress very well, normally, week 5 would be when I would normally consider switching to flower, however, I think she still needs a week or two, since I need more training, still I am very curious to see if a manifold increases the harvest quality enough for me to be okay with the extra two weeks of veg. If i wasn't doing Hydro I wouldn't be surprised if it added 3 whole weeks or even more, you can tell in the pictures how much she grew in a week when I am actively cutting her every day, DWC is great! theres a picture in there of my roots coming out of the basket, that's why I add an airstone, the dripper ring alone would never fully oxygenate a weed plant. if you use a bucket like mine, keep that in mind. At the end of the week I cleaned every cola to the top 2 tips, i did this to beefen up my base and widen it more, check back next week to see how she recovers!
