Day 29: The bud sites are really loving the defoliation I did. They have sprung back and are growing evenly now. I'm seeing more pistils every day!
Day 30: The tops are really taking off and developing now! I am seeing more and more growth each day.
Day 31: I just defoliated a bit more, readjusted my LST ties and gave her 2L of tap water ph'd to 6.5. After defoliating a second time today, I can see the improvements in tops that my first round of defoliation allowed. I am hoping to keep up the pace of growth! She is going flawlessly so far.
Day 32: Looking healthy and green! It's very cool to see a plant come "alive" after you water.
Day 34: This is by far my healthiest plant I've grown to date. Hope I didn't just jinx it!
