Started week 4 and the ladies are thriving! Continued with LST and even did some light defoliation. The Gorilla Cookies Auto is the star of the show – white hairs are starting to show up, and she has been stretching like crazy these past few days. Stems are getting thick too, and overall they seem quite content.
Snapped 2 branches while trying LST for the first time. Any idea how bad this is for my plant? Should I stop training to avoid more stress since I already topped her this week, or any other advice on how to redeem this mistake? 😩
It happens, you're fine. Honestly I remove those first node branches(sometimes the 2nd too)anyway as they tend to grow stretchy with large gaps between nodes. When using LST, take baby steps when working with stems that are starting to stiffen up.
You'll be fine with the lack of air movement at this stage of your grow, shouldn't cause you any issues! As long as you got a replacement fan coming at some point within too long, I would not worry😇
Congrats on your first harvest, looks like the grow went well. I have a 2x2 also, and have found that one healthy plant usually fills the space. Good move on the outdoor plant.
