Adjusting ties. Before adjusting I still saw a lot of potential branches underneath that were in the shade.
After adjusting the ties they are now getting plenty of light. Looks like someone stepped on her right now but I think it will look lots better in a couple days.

I gave her alfalfa + molasses + 1tsp epsom salt tea this morning. She really seemed to like the watering she took off and grew lots today.

Lots of new growth yesterday. There were 2 branches that were starting to pop up above the canopy so I tied those down this morning.

Day 30 since planted the seed on December 5th.
I watered with egg shells and epsom salt and one tablespoon of powdered bone meal this morning. Let her do her own thing without training her today. I hope that top part doesn’t shoot up and make me tie her down. The branch under there is REALLY thick and tough because I’ve tugged it all over the pot.

Also: If you guys have fits trying to level your light with those cable things that come with most LED lights, I got 4 turnbuckles from Ace hardware for $12 total that are leaps and bounds better than those floppy cables that they give you.
So much better.

Did some more training today. Still trying to encourage lower growth/bud sites to get as much light as possible by tying stuff out of the way or removing a strategic fan leaf or two that are blocking lower leaves.
I did end up FIMming the main stem yesterday. Based on what the plant did the couple days I left her alone, I just felt like that stem was going to take over and shoot up towards the light.
Hasn’t seem to slow her down a bit.

Day 34. I spent about half an hour this morning tying anything down if it was blocking lower branches.
I did remove about 4 fan leaves that were blocking lower side stems.
Looks like someone just ran over it, but I expect in a day or two everything I tied down will point back up.

Day # 35 here we are!
Nothing unusual to report. I think I’m going to leave her alone for a couple days and see if the canopy takes off evenly or needs more encouragement.

I found some of those fuzzy pipe cleaner things in the arts and crafts section of my local Walmart yesterday. Now I know why everybody uses those instead of the standard garden ties. So much easier and they look like they’re a lot less likely to damage the plant where you attach it.
I didn’t do any training the past two days, but I made up for it this morning.
