Growing the Rainbow

Grow seems to have slowed this week. I'm sure some of it has to do with the defoliation we did. I would have expected the stretch for another week or two. The buds are starting to fill out more and trichomes are forming on sugar and fan leaves. I'm a little worried about the dense canopy. We had such a bad experience on our last indoor with aphids, we decided to add some lady bugs as a preventative. We are keeping water soaked raisins for them to eat. Right now I guess they are just on guard duty, but that's okay!
