Mephisto-Strawberry Nuggets

Week #4-Dec 25-31 12/26-After looking at a number of Strawberry Nuggets diaries I decided to be a little proactive and try to open up the plant to more light earlier rather than later. So I decided to cut 4 huge leaves that were literally covering up everything below them. I'm hoping this will encourage a bit more upward growth. We shall see. 12/28-This plant is a strange bird. It's growing very low and tight to the ground. Branches don't seem to want to grow out.Only 4 inches tall so far. More LST trying to get light on lower leaves. 12/31-Starting to get a bit taller. Up to 4.5 inches. No signs yet of any pre-flowering so I'll likely stay with same feed recipe for at least the next few days. Overall though the plant looks very healthy but because the top leaves are so big and saggy it's not allowing any light on the branches underneath. So I decided to be a bit more aggressive and I cut the largest top leaves and some of the leaves/branches at the very bottom. I'm looking forward to seeing how she reacts over the next few days.
