I used the tie over method enough to wear I felt the bud sites would be closer even and learned that the stretch seemed to effect the main bud-site the most this so I feel to fully utilize and test the tie over method better I should have let it be tied over for longer maybe, for my first grow I am stunned with the color of this bud and the trichomes I can see all ready it’s truly beautiful and I and beyond grateful to be apart of the growth of it all since this is my first run I am still learning a bunch and love it, much love<3.(i defoliated the bottom 2 branches and one of the 2 branches above that cause I thought it wouldn’t get enough light) the SMELL I forgot to touch on it is smelling right now like and this is obviously just my best interpretation in words of what I’m smelling and it smells almost of sesame oil or a dark roast coffee that sort of earthyness/ woodyness words explain few things lol but that’s as close as I can get. Much much love<3
