This was the 1st full week with the trellis net up and as much as I enjoy the gentle manipulation that comes with implementing this technique I do believe there are some down sides and I am considering whether or not to use it again in the future. I think as I continue to grow and set up my perpetual grow system, it may not be conducive to this style of growing. I can see myself getting very frustrated in the future because adding plants to the "flowering tent" would be a pain in the ass with this type of netting up! With that being said Penelope is doing just fine and by the end of this week I began to notice the very early stages of bud formation which is always exciting. She still has a very faint smell but I'm sure in the weeks to come it will be more prominent. With regards to feedings she is still getting her dose of Green Plant's Medi-one which I do love. I would like to try other organic nutrient lines in the future so if anyone has recommendations please leave them in the comment section!
p.s.
for whatever reason I can't change the light system that I am using and I want to clarify that I am intact using the hipargero 800w cob setup and have flipped the switch from "veg" to "bloom"
I've always found this to be a good read on defoliation. The content on this site takes a scientific approach.
