Week 2 Day 2: Things are going well. We had some high humidity and a little algae, so I increased the fan level. There was also some slight bubbling in the leaves which could be due to the humidity, so I'm keeping an eye on that. Otherwise, things are looking good. Planning to water today (8/8), and keep an eye on them for the rest of the week. Feels like patience is key at this point. Will need to decide on feed schedule soon, and will be PH'ing my water for the first time today. Will also continue researching LST methods. Week 2 Day 7: Still struggling with high humidity. My grow is in my basement, and in the summer it stays around 70% RH. When the tent was at 80% RH I opened the vents and had the airflow running pretty high. I couldn’t come up with any other way to decrease it, so I went to Facebook marketplace and got a dehumidifier. Ran it overnight in the basement yesterday and the humidity has not really changed and there were barely droplets of water in it 😭. I’m going to try putting it in the tent if things don’t change.

What would you do to the new tops to avoid them being too much taller than the remaining canopy if you top late (like wk 3)? Connect them to the pot below the topping? above the topping? Chiropractic bend them? I plan to start SCROG in next 2/3wks

if you aren't too far into bloom, it'll be a negative effect. what you cut off won't grow out and it'll only result in lower yield. LST it.. bend it down, even if temporarily until the other stuff catches up. HST is a good option later in blom of they stretch too much into lights and start damaging themselves. so, topping is great as long as there is time for it to grow out. sometimes more branches off the same limb is not teh best option though.. you'll just spread what that limb can provide for way too thinly. if you are using a scrog you should have put it down sooner and this wouldn't be an issue. you just keep bending the branch under "next" square of net. this keeps it even until you fill out aobut 70% of space. at that point if you flip it should fill in the rest easily with the 4+ weeks of growth that remains after flipping to bloom. you still have to do some minor LST to keep it perfectly even if you want to... sometimes it just takes bending a branch down in the morning and the time it takes for it to recover something can catch up uite a bit in that time.. repeat until satisfied... bigger variation may need a multi-day tie-down.. but then can release it later once things even out. so many options, but it shouldn't be a ton of effort or work.. if so, change behaviour.

I've only fed using Gaia Green 4-4-4 once to date and notice no deficiencies. Should I re-feed fully with Gaia Green 4-4-4 in two weeks or add some of the power bloom during that feed? Would you reccomend adding any other nutrients to my grow?

I would not switch to power bloom on its own, mix it with a bit of all purpose as the N content of power bloom is to low. I also find gaia green needs some extra Mg, if they have not shown signs already. I also would only flip nutrients after the stretch. but can add in a nice PK booster when light cycle switches for a onetime boost Good Luck!
