You want my advise: don't start topping/straining until week 5 and only if you see the number of leaflets increasing steadily. The leaflets going back in number is a sure sign of (severe) stress.
Only do one heavy maneuver every week. Don't tie one day, top the next and tie some extra the day after that. These beings of green breath slowly.
You can watch all you want but refrain from touching it ! It's not a pet and most pets don't like excessive petting anyway !
@Sweet_Seeds, I like your crosses so much! I grow Jack 47 original last year and this seed I get from one of plants.. So Im now like some sado-maso cruel man who doing too cruel things to test what Jack 47 can stand... and this ... IS STRONG STRAIN!!! ๐
