Technique
Finished up week 5 with some continued LST, cut off some lower leaves and watered with nutes... Soil has been retaining a lot of water and can only be watered every 5/6 days... pH has been a bit of an issue, so I added some Dolomite Lime to adjust - did so at beginning of week, and then at end... Raised pH ok.
Turned on both Bloom and Veg on LED.. sooooo much more light! With a few days adjustment and some water, the results were awesome! Finally swing some serious filling in with the LST... Hard to measure height of plant ;).
I added a small CFL (60w) to one end of space, to add some white light + increase light in area - plants seem to like it. I've switched plants' positions every 2 days - even out light access and air flow for each plant.

I'm going into flowering stage soon and was wondering about defoliation of the lower leaves after doing some LST - stretching out branches horizontally... Should I remove the lower leaves, focus on the bud sites access to light?

Hi @Growery yes you can do some defoliation on leaves that are shading the shoots but do it in small quantities, you can also cut some shoots that are at the bottom of the plant. the plant is not very dense in terms of leaves, too much defoliation can create problems for the plant. good luck mate 👍

LST + SOG - Should/could I remove the LST ties once I place a trelace net over the plants? My plants haven't grown upwards much due to the training/tying down to the pot... A tent and filtration are enroute to support operation, prior to flowering...

Yes you can do it and when she will be free from her ties it will change her shape.
The only difficulty here is to manage the plant under the net as you will have to put every tops in the net holes

I just moved my plants into a tent and watered, with nutrition (as above)... I saw two leaves that showed up with a rusty, burn to it... A few thoughts: 1- pH... It's been at about 6.5/7, but leaned a little high this reading. 2- Light burn... 3. Nutrition difficiency?

Why buy clones?
Why don't you buy seeds and make one mother and have unlimited clones?

How does my SCROG look? Being my first grow, I've been trying to maximize my space using several techniques: HST, LST, defoliation and now SCROG (trellis netting)... Experienced growers/users of SCROG, please give some input.

Honestly I don't think you need the scrog net as you've done such a great job with your lst, the scrog is almost unnecessary! 🌱👍😄

Seeing lots of dying/dead leaves and some funky issues with some buds... Heat issues in week 4 are the biggest changes in past 2 weeks.

Ah soil aint it a trip
Better pics would be nice but Ok wont try and tell you exactly whats up here as its far too busy with issues, can say is what I would do finding that in the tent.
First gotta get some run off to test and a good bit of it so its a decent sample however...
those roots look like they may be in trouble, I would get that run off using 0.5% H2O2 flush.
30C isnt bad enough to cause real damage just wont like it much, an organism could have set up in the pot though due to the heat thus the H2O2.
WILL NOT HURT THE PLANT
Like for use on your skin just keep it low less than 2% and this case does not really show it needs that.
Test the run off multiple times smell it just find out what you can from it.
That is what I would do just IMO the culprit may come out in the wash
Seriously good luck let us know

First grow! Orinoco (OC-1), a high CBD strain... Grown from clones.
Starts at 4weeks, after getting LED Light, and setting up in big pots. 2 plants.
More weeks to come, lots of pictures, maybe a video or two?
