No-till 2x4 - 1 Sprouted bag seed

Week 7 - Left - The bag seed is starting to put on some nice growth on the two tops. I spread them apart a bit, need them to do a bit of stretching before I top a 2nd time. I'll likely not a do a full mainline on the bag seed, unlike the Royal Highness and ICC. Middle - Royal Highness - This one had the worst leaf damage (although not the worst overall damage) from the aphids, now that they're gone and the plant has start growing more quickly, the damage has become decayed plant flesh. I've been trimming it off where necessary. Two strong tops on each of these 4 branches and they're all trained to the hoop, just needs time to grow. Right - Ice Cream Cake - This is the plant which lost an entire branch from powdery mildew, also had a good amount of leaf damage from the aphids. Trimmed off any dead bits on leaves and continued to train her to the hoop. Hoping my gamble of treating this one branch like a plant with 2 branches and 4 tops will work. I'm unsure if I'll top the ends of this one, she's already seen a lot of abuse, I might just trim back some of the nodes with aphid damage and just keep the new growth with no additional topping. You know, that actually sounds like a great plan. I'll be happy to get anything from these fucking things considering they gave me aphids.
