Have learned from her grow partner that topping/fimming seems to work, so she got the snip also. Sorted out the water issues, and finally have the environment back under control. ph/nutes are back as I want them, but at the end of this grow, I'm going to clean everything out and start fresh. The set up I have is now about months old. I want to change the grow space, and perhaps invest in a tent. Concerned that winter is going to have an impact on growing.
