Gorilla Glue under HLG 240

I figured out that I’m actually at the end of week 4, rather than week 7, so I’m going to have the next two updates as part of this week until I get my weeks straight. My main concerns this week were getting more light into the dense central part of the plant. As a result, I did some mild pruning of the larger leaves. I also pinned down the lower branches to open it up more. If you compare the pictures to the ones from last week, you should see a notable improvement. I’m keeping the lower branches for now in case I want to pull some clones (I’ve never cloned before). Watering is about every three days, which still seems like too much because of the amount of water left behind (maybe a pint of runoff from a gallon of water). UPDATE: 1/10 New pics to come. Lots of good things happening this week: The top has hit the scrog, so it’s time to start keeping an eye on growth patterns and prepare for weaving branches. This is a good milestone to hit. The most important improvement this week has been getting temps under control. Come to find out, my air filter was clogged so the heat wasn’t dissipating as expected. I pulled the prefilter and threw it in the washing machine with some towels. While that was happening, I looked up how to clean the charcoal filter and followed instructions for cleaning and reactivating the charcoal using the oven. The whole process took an hour or so before I was able to get it all put back together. Temps are FINALLY in the upper 70s through most of the day, and I’d swear the plant has responded by pushing out a growth spurt during the week. I also did some mild trimming to open the plant up some more as it thrives again. Overall, the plant is healthy and should get even healthier with the lower temps.
