These weeks just keep flying by! It's the end of week 4 (day 30) since flip tomorrow and the reservoir was EMPTY when I checked it! Not totally empty, and not unexpected - it's time for the midweekgrind!
Also, the stretch is done. The tops are 12-18" above the screen (can I still call it a scrog ?), and if I strip them we'll for sure need a trellis layer (as they fatten up they probably will anyway), but as it stands, we've got a tent full of pompoms on pencils waiting to fatten up nicely. They only have the top 2 sets of fans, so the big question of the day: should we defoliate again? hrmmmm
@DrJones, Thanks bud! they're on averave 4" each, and there's a 2nd layer deeper in the canopy. With all the leaf strips even the popcorn appears to be SOLID chunk!
Beautiful grow every week! Iโm doing my first scrog and canโt bring myself to defoliate heavily like you did a few times. Thanks for demonstrating how well they bounce back.
@@@T_Dub, thanks! Scrogging is a lot of work, defoliation isn't as necessary with less plants and more tucking - keep them tight to the screen through the first 2-3weeks from flip and more selective of tops. Mine is over full currently and there will be some significant larf or a 2nd strip and staggered finish. They will always bounce back!
