Hey guys,
So I'm 42 days in since they had popped and stood above ground, everything is going awesome. My lemon zkittles reacted great to the super cropping I did. Unfortunately it was necessary to maintain a reasonable height but it did pay off so no worries there.
I am however having trouble with my lsd 25. The growth has been impressive from the start and she has lots of nice tops now all fighting for the light. The problem is, is shes so vigorous in growth she can sometimes block all of her bud sites. I'm wondering if anyone recommends some select defoliation of some of the more intrusive fan leaves in the centre of the canopy that are blocking the light. Thoughts? Will it stunt my plant being at the start of flowering or will I see more benefit in the long run from snipping a few?
This is my second grow but I am still learning. I have dialled in almost everything to how I want it to be that i can control, now all that's left is UNDERSTANDING the plant and how to react to her reacting to what I do. I got all the theory down at this point I think.
For those that are curious -
300w led UFO style
200w cfl over the lsd as booster lighting cos she fatt
I'm not sure on pot size but they are auto pots so I dont have to hand feed and the roots are suspended in clay balls and water after the coco (hope that makes sense)
Remo nutrients following full strength feeding chart because I never bought into the whole 'autos burn easier'. This might be true, but ladies and gentlemen we are growing weeds and they are very strong and resilient. They got used to it very quickly.
And that's it, let me know what you think I should do.
