Hello growers, Vegetative Week 8 – Pineapple Upside Down (Round 2) This week can clearly be described as explosive in terms of vegetative growth. After allowing the plant to fully recover last week without any additional pruning, the rebound is now very visible. Growth has accelerated, foliage density has increased significantly, and overall vigor looks strong and healthy. The plant began rebushing rapidly, with tight internodes and solid structural development. Because of that renewed strength, a structural pruning session was carried out this week. The canopy was cleaned up and reset to maintain airflow and prepare the plant for future shaping. The current objective is to let the selected branches extend further before initiating low-stress training. LST will begin once there is sufficient length to properly guide the plant into its final structure. At this stage, everything looks stable. Recovery has been clean, growth is consistent, and the plant appears strong. Overall, this week marks a clear turning point in the vegetative phase. See you next week. Take care.
