Chommy This is my second attempt. The first was unsuccessful, I completely failed during flowering...
I hope I've learned from my mistakes and can begin a new cycle 😇
@RemoveYourChains, I defoliated too often, and my lamp was overpowering the plants with its light output, but this only slowed growth. The main mistake was overfertilizing during flowering, which I later tried to correct by thoroughly flushing the soil.
Now I have a dimmer for the lamp and I have a TDS meter to monitor the fertilizer PPM.
