Apple Blossom/Nap Time in 2x4

I'm feeling the need to wrap up the vegetative stage ASAP and get to flower and throw some buds on there. First these plants need some training. I'm pretty sure most people train all their plants using the same method, but I'm going to try a little of everything. Some of them are more damaged than others and the Nap Time strain seems to be more of a tall grower than the bushier Apple Blossoms. So I figure each plant can use its own tailored training. For the Nap Time, the tall grower, I chose to supercrop the main stem and then bend it about 90 degrees. The stem was thick AF and not squishable until above the 5th node. There was some slight skin splitting which I wrapped with grafting tape. Afterward, several of the lower bud sites ended up higher than the main top, so hopefully growth will be promoted to several nodes instead of the main central one. The middle two plants, my best two Apple Blossoms, I topped at the 6th node. I also spread them apart and exposed lower growth to the light. I also did a small amount of defoliating and elimination of the lowest node growth. The plant on the right, Apple Blossom #1, took the most damage in the early stages, so I went the easiest on it. I bent the main stem over without supercropping it and exposed the lower growth, with the goal of making some of them higher up than the main top. I also removed a large fan leaf blocking them from getting light. Node spacing is extremely tight on this plant. The rest of the week, I did some light defoliation almost every day. Most of this was at the bottoms of the plants to open up airflow. I also continued tying down and spreading out side branches to utilize space, and the tops to try to keep the canopy level. I'm aiming for one final week of veg. Maybe even a mid week flip if things are going great. Right now they're growing like crazy. I'll be looking to set up a scrog net soon and and try to get the canopy and full and even as possible with 4 plants crammed into a 2x4 with misfit saucers. I'll also be setting up an auto watering system, and probably an auto drainage catchment too. I'm spending too much time with the watering, not getting it consistent or even, and my old ass body is taking a beating crawling around all the time.
