I decided not to top after speaking with my friend who is a master grower. The next time I grow this seed I will top and compare the results! Both Gertie and clones are doing great. I read an article that said D42 is the best day to switch to flower on a photoperiod plant, so that's what I will do. One more week of veg! https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8786113/
D37: Decided to top so I did that and defoiled some lowers and got rid of tiny nodes on the bottom. Clones D6 are already rooting and look good!
Day 41: Did some pruning today. Removed 3 smaller legs and made them clones. My other 3 clones rooted perfectly and are super healthy! Getting ready for the switch in a few days. Wanted to decongest before she really takes off!
i see you are using the flora series like me.... i like their nutrients it's all i use except for adding the occasional cal-mag or adding great white during transplant, your plant is looking good leaves praying to the light, hope this wedding cake brings you some tasty flowers!😀
