How we looking… I took two fan leaves off most… ! It did get a lil hot.IMG_20211010_184940|666x500
Looking really healthy I’d start on my training if I were you those stalks are getting pretty thick
So in terms of training I’m not going to LST or topping. I am going for a sea of green. I’m going to prune some to shape but that’s about it . Honestly I was surprised by how fast they grew and the stalk thickened up. Any suggestions?
You’re not going to get an even sea of green unless you tie down your main cola so they’re even with the side colas
Ok… well I can try but the ship may have sailed. What about lollipoing them. It’s my first grow…I have too many in there I think.
Sure I recommend everyone lollipop ( or at least heavily defoliate their underbrush) but that’s not something you do until about 4 weeks in
So I clipped two fan leaves off each one, one a bit more. I plan to take another two from each in one week. Trying to expose the bud sites. I’m hoping that approach won’t shock them. Or should I just wait to more weeks and then prune before the move to flower?
If a leaf gets light don’t prune it that’s my rule of thumb , this small and they’re all at least getting refracted light
Yeah good point. Hopefully I didn’t fuck em up
Nah you didn’t I saw someone around here take off all except 5 leaves and by next week it totally bushed out again , slowed him down by a few days though
Looks good have u started lst on ur plants
No. I think I waited too long, stalks are too thick. I tried one this morning and felt like I might snap it. Only the top 1 inch has any flex in it.
I managed to do one like that. Idk though, it didn’t bend the stalk as much as it just pulled the whole thing down.
U can lst ur branches with out bending the stem
I went ahead and bent them all over. This was probably my last chance to do it, but I wanted to do a sea of green anyway. Then I was going to lollipop. But I think I’ll just try the sea of green. I’m new, first autos I’ve grown.
