Heater was off and they were in distress for a few days at the beginning. Defoliated after they bounced back from that and got all the lower growth and several leaves from the canopy. This strain can take a big feed without nutrient burn and responded well to the first bloom nutes.
Going to do one big defoliation soon to remove lower foliage that won't develop and expose bud sites by thinning the canopy. I feel like constantly chopping a few leaves at a time makes them stunted.
