Growth is thick enough now that the bottom most leaves are beginning to die back. I always like to watch how this occurs to see if it gives me any hints as to nutrition as well. I take them away as soon as they are about 50% dead/no long efficent. Both plants are healthy. I’ve got the one on the left tied to encourage a more open canopy beside normal growth on the right as an experiment. I’ve observed most of the dead lower leaves on the right side where the canopy is less open. I think that some mild training is beneficial for veg, waiting to see if it plays through to harvest. They look fantastic. I’m letting them tell me when they need water/nutes.
looking very nice 👌
next you want to upgrade your light to non-blurple (quantum boards, COB's, etc.)
and you will be even more happy. Enjoy your journey
