Big Bud Baby! - PEV contest

Last week of Veg!!!!😎 Another great and stressful week...😵 couple of rest days, a couple of shoots snipped, rest again, and decided to flip on the last day to 12/12 cycle😲. Usually I like to give them a good full week of rest before switching them to flower... but so far, they seem really, really resistant. 💪 As you can see from the pics, I clipped another set of nodes but left the fan leaves. This will be the last clip... if I left the shoots, I believe they would have grown as satellite arms and steal energy from the main cola... yep... that's what I believe.😁 After nine weeks, you would hope for them to be taller... right? I wanted to keep them this size so I don't have to worry about them out growing the tent and the lights. Been there, done that... Also, easy to keep fans on them for better air flow. The girls are developing their canopies very nicely though. Trying to keep arms the same height by tying them down... plant bondage... some call this LST, but because I clipped the shoots and tied them down, gonna have to knock it off as HST 😂. Half way through the week, I switched them to 24 hrs of light to help with recovery. On the 6th day, they went for their very first sleep of 12/12 hrs. The last couple of pics shows them just waking up from it... Watered them twice... 1st watering only gave them 1L. 4 days later I gave them 2L... Giving them a drying out period seems to be working for the girls 😜 Still using plain tap water which is pH 7... the soil regulates it to 6.5 pH. Now the excitement starts... 😁 Cya's next week!
