Pretty easy week. Just had to keep up with LST on the plants. I had to keep constantly tucking leaves and adjusting ties, but it was pretty simple. The canopy isn't perfectly level, but at the end of week 5, it's pretty close and the branches have just reached the edge of their pots. The branch that I was trying to reflect light on and bring out on the Candy Kush at the end of last week finally got clipped. It just wasn't growing fast enough and Candy Kush already has 8 strong branches. I'm feeling pretty good about this week. The plan is to flip some time next week, possibly as early as Monday depending on how fast they recover from this most recent round of LST.
If anyone has any tips regarding when to best flip to flower on an LST'd plant like this, I'd love to hear it. Defoliation, too. Yes? No? How much and where?

2 plants in 0.5L pots in BioBizz AllMix. Using tap water. Both have twisted/incomplete new growth with strange texture and discoloration on some lower leaves. Suspicion: 1. Very soft water-> CalMag deficiency. 2. Low humidity ~25-35%. 3 Need to pot up (planned to do it this week)

I would switch to distilled water if possible. Its so hard to say by looking at pictures. Hope this helps.

These plants have been topped/LSTd. They're 5 weeks old in their final 7L pots. I'm thinking they're about ready to flip in the coming week, but I'm open to opinions on if I should wait more. Also, defoliation before flower: Skip it? Do it? If yes, then how much and where from?

Hey there Tiny Couch, you're absolutely right that they're ready to be flipped, that much you can tell by the new growth happening . Still though with a topping which is a HST , i would say try to aim for an average veg of 7 to 8 weeks. Topping can really reduce your yield, that's what folks dont realise. 5 weeks is very short for veg, but because of watching folks do it online it got kind of normalised lol The difference in yield for a short veg of up to 5 weeks and an average veg of up to 7 weeks is really quite huge, and in my personal opinion it's totally worth it if you have few plants. Go for 8 weeks even, that's not even a long veg, not really. Hope this helps ! 🚀

@CRiSPrGrow, thanks for your advice! 👊 They were topped two weeks ago and have had consistent growth and LST since then, so I was thinking they would have recovered by now...? I'll admit that I am a bit impatient to move on to the next stage, but more than that, I was worried about letting them veg too long to where they end up outgrowing their small pots during the stretch. I'm not looking for a massive yield. An ounce off each plant will be plenty for my consumption, but the more, the better of course. Is the potential of outgrowing the pots something I should be worried about if I let them go another 2 weeks in veg?

Change humidity to 55/65%
and temperature between 23-26 ºC
it's really important in the vegetative stage.

@Tosca, Thanks for the tips!
I've gotten better control of the humidity this week. I don't want to buy a humidifier, so I just spray water into the tent a 4 or 5 times a day to give them a good dose of humidity. Even then, with the bigger pots now, the humidity is staying a higher than before. Unfortunately, there's not much I can do about the temps. I don't have A/C and I live in a pretty hot place, but temps have been going down this week, so they'll get some cooler air soon. Maybe they're not growing as fast as they could, but they're still making progress!
