2nd grow - ILGM White Widow Autoflower

Starting the new grow. This will be the same strain as last time so I can do a comparison for improvements from lessons learned during my initial grow. I soaked 2 seeds for 24 hours, then placed them in damp paper towel for 36 hours to pop and grow approx 1/2" tap root. I an using Foxfarm Coco Loco in 5 gal fabric pots. Seeds were planted into pots yesterday, sprouted today. I have two on the map! Always good to start with 100% germ and sprout rates. Lessons learned during first grow: 1) Do not bury seeds too deep in soil 2) Light height, temperatures & humidity levels REALLY matter for optimal yields. I monitored, but did not alter those 3 parameters enough during my first grow for optimal yields. 3) Train train train your plants! I failed to train enough during the early flower stage and it cost me dearly in having my plants too tall for my tent. Light burn ensued even after purchasing a taller tent 4) The first 3 weeks of flowering is when you set the final shape on the plant. For this grow I am seeking a candelabra shape to give better spacing between my tops. 5) Defoliate first time towards end of veg - lollipop and strip bud sites to the top nodes only 6) Continue to defoliate every few weeks to remove any large fan leaves (hand sized) or new bud sites/shoots on the lower half of the plants 7) Alternate watering between full nutes and PH water only throughout the grow. 8) Utilize 2-3 days of darkness at the end of the grow before harvest to boost trichomes.
