FIRST DAYS
-------------
The girls tolerated the topping well; in three days, I found small bushy bushes in my tent.
So, a little mainlining to give them the desired shape, and a little splash of water with just Voodoo.
Tomorrow they will receive their 4ml Grow A+B, with 2ml B-52 this time.
PS: as you can see in the photo, a little mistake due to over-enthusiasm...
I damaged one, but the branch didn't break completely; a little bandage, we'll see if it recovers, if not it will do without that branch.
I've seen worse in a previous session, and it was my 3-branch plant that gave me the best harvest!

MIDWEEK
-----------
Two days after mainlining, it's time for the first defoliation.
I cut the “horizontal” sites, as I don't want branches growing in the center of the structure.
I'll leave them to rest now; I'll do some lollipopping when they've climbed.
+ I'll switch Voodoo to B-52.
PS:
- The damaged branch is not dead, but does not seem to be recovering; I will give it a few more days before deciding to cut it
- On the other hand, I had an unpleasant surprise: one of my other girls showed signs of wilting and browning on three of the four branches. I've never had that before... As with gangrene, I cut the three, hoping that the fourth will hold up. For her, I kept the middle sites + mainlining; if it works, I'll still have three branches.
