Critical - RQS - first full DWC hydro

Flower is progressing nicely at this point. Reduced nutrients slightly to keep EC under 2.0. Increased lights to 100% intensity, and added an additional fan to flow air up through the canopy. The plant looks like it needs Defoliation badly - going to try and hold out until week 6. Definitely clear that it is a female plant at this point, bud development up top has taken off. Only 2 male flowers/nanners picked from branch nodes - still on constant watch though! Great sugar development - will be saving trim now :D Week progressed nicely. Some light fading starting to show on lower leaves. Not concerned with that due to the lack of trimming I have done up to this point. Considering letting the plant help me defoliate over these next few weeks as I reduce nitrogen. Buds are swelling and starting to connect on the main stems. Sugar looks great under jeweler's loop - super clear at this point.
