I'd strip the leaves/ bud sites under the main canopy, no point them being there when no light can get to them mate. Other than that looks grrreat.

I'm gonna take a few fans here and there but that's it. Rather than stressing them too much. I did a defoliation fuck up in my last run and it's not happening this one ha

The term for this is lollipopping

I know what lollipopping is. I also know you don't do it day 7 and when they're showing any signs of stress. I know how I'm doing this run bro. The only thing that has changed is the screen. Everything else I'm doing the same as planned

Well. In literally a couple of minutes of foliar feeding aminos the apparent zinc deficiency was pretty much gone. Can only figure a lack of usable proteins was locking out heavy metals. I'd say from what I've seen so far its a good decision. Will check tomorrow at lights on and see how they areDSC_1086.JPG

After doing some reading today about conversions of mg to ml. Room temp water is around 1g to 1ml making conversion pretty easy. The amino acid tablets I got are 1500mg which as a liquid measure would be 1.5ml.AN big bud feed chart states 2ml/weeks 2,3 and 4. So @JDMase the best answer I've come up with is one tablet crushed up to every litre giving you a slightly lower ratio than AN at 1.5ml/l. I'll be starting at 1/8th the dose and upping 1/8th every time I feed until I reach the 1.5ml/l providing I don't see any adverse effects of course

I never lollipop. I don't see the point.

When the canopy is that dense I don't see a reason to keep it, my understanding was no light no bud, in some cases it can be true, I've had plants that have been so dense with leaf the shaded parts don't grow like other areas that have full light resulting in what people call ' larf or popcorn ' this is what is take off, my other understanding of it was if the plant is wasting energy feeding these under achieving area then what's the point it being there... me personally can only be bothered to chop actual buds anything that when dried would turn to dust I don't waste my time with. Each to there own was just putting my opinion out there.

Yeah that's cool man, I just think that every bud deserves a chance to be smoked :) weight is weight and the more you have the more you can smoke! I don't think the amount gained by lollipoping is more than what you get from leaving it be. As my friends say "it's gonna be grinded up and smoked anyway!"

And in regards to canopy penetration, I get you! The lower buds get less light and will mature slower, but ive chopped tops and left the bottoms to mature for a few more days and then harvested those. It all depends on your space and whether you're perpetual I guess. Each to their own :)

I get that people do it who want mass production of just dense buds. But I make oil and shit too bro. And cook with trim. So what other people bin I try and utilise. I took all lower leaves that were touching the medium. And a couple that were just crumpled in the middle of the plant to increase light penetration a little bit. Not saying it's a bad practice at all. It's just not for me personally

Day 8 Bloom. Amino acids as a foliar last night clearly helped. Added 1/8th the dose via the root zone today. Aswell as a feed. Adding the aminos took my ph from 6.8 (not the ph perfect advanced state but I don't use ro water so who am I to call them on it) down to 6.2 (ph perfect imo as I don't have the sensi coco. Just the sensi. DSC_1095.JPG
