The plants were adding nodes nicely at this point. Once I reached the 6th node on each plant I began my training, which is where problems seem to have begun. I am going for a mainline on the Sugar Breath and Sapphire Scout, and doing sort of a combo Topping/LST for the Gorilla Breath and Chemdog. With these two, I topped the plants and left two nodes. The next step will be to top them again leaving 3 nodes on each of the 4 branches, so growing out 24 colas total for the GB and CD. Problem is that the growth of the SB and GB seems to have slowed down significantly since topping. Not sure if this is due to the high temps (29-30 C avg), high humidity (~80% during the day). or possibly overwatering (was feeding 1/8 Gal twice per day per plant). The Chemdog seems to be chugging along like a champ though.
@MiPotFarm,Thank you! Bit worried I might have messed up by mainlining the sugar breath as her recovery has been slow from her second topping and now its too late to turn back :(
