What do you guys think? be honest lol

Do you guys think she’ll like her new home? Does she look healthy?

From a 5 gallon Roots Pot filled with Roots Organics Original Soil to a 15 gallon Smart Pot filled with Roots Organics Lush Soil. Main Lined for 16 tops, all training is done. Im not topping, or defoliating her for the rest of the grow. Just gonna gonna sit back, watch her grow, and water her with RO Water when my soil moisture meter says dry. All 16 tops should be grown out when the Full Moon comes around and I cant wait to see how she’ll look then.

Hmmm
16 tops you say?

Certainly more than I'd be looking for. I top out at 10 to 12.

Looks good. You might want to spread those branches and tie them down when they grow out a little more though.

Yes I’ll post a updated pic of how she looks when the Full Moon comes around.

Why 10 to 12? I was gonna top her one more time once the 16 tops grew out for 32 tops but after i smoked yesterday and was staring at her, something was telling me to put her in a big home and let her grow out. so that’s what i did.

Ok thank you for the advice. I will certainly do that once they grow out a little more. whats the reasoning, if you dont mind me asking.

To space out the bud sites more. Creates better airflow around them.

Got it, I’ll do that.
Let me ask you, do you think i should still defoliate her later on? or just go along with my plan of action of not defoliating her for the rest of the grow?

I'd leave it alone for now. You could remove some of the lower stuff later. Or just do some selective defoliation. But don't go crazy. Leaves are good.

Fewer bud sites means the plant puts energy into developing those sites more and heftier. Also, as mentioned so you can have good airflow through the plants for their transpiration and general health.

Ah I see! I wont go crazy with the topping on my other plant, which i haven’t topped yet. Waiting for a couple more nodes to grow out. I’ll be looking to main line that one for 8 tops. Thank you for the advice. I appreciate it!

Smaller buds are less suseptible to mold and shit though. So it's not all bad.

So less tops bigger buds, more tops smaller buds, but roughly around the same yield?
