Purple punch - fastbuds - the midget plant 🧐

End of week 4, and what a crazy week 🤦🏽😅 So this plant was driving me crazy this week... It refuses to grow vertically! (See in the pictures she barely reaches out of the pot!) and instead of that she got super bushy! Full of large leaves everywhere packing on top of each other.. I had to clean many of the leaves, with every day trying to organize and control this crazy phenotype, 🤦🏽👾 Eventually she did grew up a bit to a point that allowed me (barely) to LST, I kept defoliate the plant along with lst, 2 days after and the plant bushed up again! Many new leaves reappeared with no extra hight.... In short - it was hell taking care of the plant during week 4😤 This got me to a point when I got paranoid thinking this phenotype is also not good for growing a decent plant as I use to grow.. Don't get me wrong here! This plant was super healthy! The leaves grew fast and super green, the roots got to the bottom and filled up the 4 gallon fabric pot, going out through the fabric! However the total lack of vertical growth was made me think something is wrong with this phenotype. Luckily I decided to continue with the grow, and give this plant a chance... And thank God I did that because eventually she came out to be something special ;) Until next week everyone 👊🏽🌱
