Would you/should I top these?
I am unsure whether to do a final topping. My thinking is that I don’t want to have shoots growing inward but sideways so I’d had to top at the points I marked. But there’s two nodes above that. Isn’t that too much to cut off? Pictures show cutting point and what’s above that.

Pale sproutling
My second plant is looking a bit pale. He might had some condensation drops on him when first seeing full light. Apart from the leaves he’s doing fine. Water uptake is exactly the same as his brother and the leaves are equal in size. Shorter but wider. Do I have a problem?

What’s this dark coloring?
One leaf, well on fact just one finger has this darkish coloring. It doesn’t look to different from typical end of life leaf coloring it’s just exceptionally dark. It’s the only stress sign and it looks fine from below. It also feels healthy. Not limp, not dry. Anything to worry?

Foxtailing or just uneven growth?
Some of my buds seem to swell uneven. Or is it foxtailing? It’s hard to show in the picture but the lower area has a few calyxes sticking out. Could be strong swell or foxtail. What is it?

Vegan Phosphor boost but how
My fert comes with an additive called „Vegan Phosphor boost“. The instructions tell to spill it over the soil. However it never dissolves within the time frame they tell to add it. Does anyone using this stuff know how to use it right?

Green Power 5 in 1 but how?
The recommendations on my fertilizer tell to not fertilize in week 11 do they mean actually week 11 or is this the usual don’t fertilize one week before harvest recommendation?

Light stress?
I have some slightly erected teeth at my fingers. It started to form when I stopped raising the light to stop the stretch. I’ve now pulled it up a bit again to be above 40cm distance. I had similar on my last grow which seemed alright so maybe nothing to be worried about.

Should I lollipop this one
This is a branch after topping, but a branch from the previous node took over dominance. I’m hesitating to cut it away as I consider it to be main, but it’s relatively thin. It only has one node and as you can also see all the other colas around are bigger. Should I lollipop it?

Why the goose neck?
I found this branch to be goosenecking. ChatGPT tells it’s because it can’t handle its own weight but it will straighten up. It really is the only branch doing that and indeed it looks like very young. It’s hard to keep track of all branches and how they grow. If it does straight

Defoliation suggestions
Please mark leaves you would defoliate either now or later. If you think it’s worth mentioning also mark any leaf you would NOT defoliate and why. To be clear: I will not necessarily defoliate all marked leaves 😆 maybe some. Just want to farm ideas so don’t hesitate to be verbos
