We are now two weeks into the flowering stage, and the transformation in the plants is astounding. Their vertical growth has been significant, with a marked increase in both height and leaf production. The plants are becoming denser by the day, filling the tent with their lush, vibrant foliage.
In response to this rapid growth, I've performed another round of defoliation. This process not only helps maintain the balance of growth throughout the tent but also ensures that light and air can penetrate to the lower parts of the plants, promoting healthier and more productive growth.
The tops are evenly distributed across the area of the tent, creating a uniform and efficient canopy. This equal distribution will be crucial in achieving a plentiful and even yield.
One of the more sensory experiences at this stage has been the remarkable increase in the plants' aroma. The scent has grown considerably stronger, to the point that the defoliation process was quite intoxicating. It's a powerful reminder of the unique characteristics of cannabis and the rich, fragrant buds that are soon to form.
