First Grow

Day 22 - (1/29/21) Watered with nutrients. Seems like they are finally getting thirsty. I needed almost 2 gallons between the 3 of them. Officially decided against topping today since they have been having some nutrient deficiency issues. Instead I'm going to be extra diligent with the LST and keeping the plants even. Today I bent over the main stem of all 3 plants and tied them to the side of the fabric pots. I bent them all away from the light to make sure the new growth had the best exposure possible. Looking forward to seeing how they do! Day 23 - (1/30/21) Watered with nutrients. Used some garden wire to pin down some of the larger leaves that have blocked the new growth. Day 24 - (1/31/21) Watered with nutrients. Adjusted all my LST wires and pinned down more leaves. I'm definitely getting more confident with the LST as the plants are getting more robust and less nutrient deficient. Really happy with all the new growth! Day 25-28 - (1/31/21-2/4/21) Watered with nutrients every day. Adjusted LST wires and defoliated the older leaves and a few fan leaves that were really in the way of new growth. I accidentally broke off two stems on plant #3 :( Now I know how delicate they are and not to force them until the stems are a bit longer. I think I could definitely defoliate some more but I'm a bit nervous to overdo it. I'll probably let them stay bushy for a while. I think the next week we should be going into flowering?? At least according to some other diaries for this strain. BTW all my daily pics are right after I've watered and trained them so they look very droopy haha. Every morning they look very perky and bushy!
