Northern Lights Auto In Coco

Saw some issues with my bootleg drip system and the plant might have suffered some stress. Did some defoliation on 03/21/2024 and tried to removed all the leaves which were covered by the ones on top. Reference for the entire experiment: https://www.cocoforcannabis.com/ - Great read and lots of information. I enjoyed reading it and will recommend to other growers who want to learn about coco as a growing medium! Germination: - Paper towel method, used for first time was great! Will keep using this one.
