I topped the plants to encourage the growth of an extra main stem. I also tied them up to perform LST in order to expose the extra growth at the nodes to light. Hopefully, this will give me a head start of extra growth to work with in preparation for ScrOG-ing.
I didn't top the Ethos Cookies #16 plant because it did not have 4 fully grown nodes yet.

These ladies grew over twice the size that they were in the beginning of the last week, with most of the growth happening in the last 3 days. Beautiful and healthy new growth is exhibited by all plants, very symmetrical, and nicely colored with a uniform green.
The spider mites are still an issue on the EC#16 plant soil. I am still applying Captain Jack's Neem Oil to get rid of them, and will add a combination of Spinosad insecticide, as well as a diluted soapy water solution to put an end to this infestation once and for all.
Lights:
Vivosun VS4000 @ 75% brightness ~14 inches away.
Feeding:
Plain 6.3 pH water ~200ml every 2 days per plant.
Notes:
Will probably start very light feeding with cal-mag-iron & Fox Farms Grow Big in the next couple days.
Thank you! I picked Pineapple Express because one of my friend requested it. The rest, I picked based on reputation and other people's grow pictures- those are some pretty strains!
I'm enjoying this grow a lot so far, but I am also quite fixated on the little things. It's part of the enjoyment for me. 💚✨️
