Malawi in Urbs

Looking at those photos, you'd never know they sprouted on the same day. Same birthday, same medium, same tent, and very different plants. The big one got topped with a no- to light-defoliation manifold in mind. When using living soil, defoliation is a bad idea because the nutrients that are stored in those leaves are what's going to carry these all the way to harvest without adding any bottled nutrients. That big one has been showing signs of light overdose with a little bit of taco shelling leaves, but nothing else in the tent is doing that. I shrug my shoulders and move forward with my eyes open for change one way or the other.
