Oh ya. Explosive growth happening. I did the first topping 3 days ago. No slow down at all. They will get topped again so I am aiming for four main colas per plant. After topping I gave them two days of extra Deep Red and IR which helped them stretch out a little allowing the branches to come out of hiding. Controlling plant shape is amazingly easy using different colours. Once they stretched a bit the reds and IR got turned off and they started bushing out sideways. I am very surprised at how fast they react to the different colours. They will get their second topping as soon as the two branches are big enough.
The Scallions are doing very good although at least a month or two from eating. I gave them a shot of MaxiGrow yesterday so now they should take off. As I harvest the scallions I will simply plant more seeds in its place and keep them going for a perpetual harvest.
I am very happy with their progress so far.
When is the best time to top or defoliate when growing in soil?
Before watering?
After watering?
Or does it really matter?
Also would timing defoliation with nute feeding either before or after matter?
