1st time LED, welcome 2024 !

Today is Monday 29th, the first day of week 8 😮 I did an aggressive defoliation on each plant and I did LST on the 2 main branches that were going too high. Now they are at the same level than the secondary branches. I only watered with 1l of water per pot since it was not perfectly dry enough. I will let them few days to recover from this stress and I will start the 12/12 cycle maybe at the end of this week. 🙏 Later update, they did recover well and I did start the 12/12 cycle on the Sunday 5th of May, the LED is still at 50% and I have 700 to 600 PPFD on the canopy. I watered them with 1.5l of water per pot + 1ml/l of Cal-mag, it was 6 days since they got any water but they were drinking less since the aggressive defoliation. I also removed the LST that I made during the vegetative stage to allow them to have a nice stretch 😃
