Looking good progressing as they should! Im fighting low RH but have a couple humidifier’s coming. I have a feeling these yellow tips are just a trait of this strain, def too early for any deficiency lol. Thanks for stopping in!

The mini humidifiers finally came and they are working excellently!! They run for about 6-8hrs before needing refilling but it sure beats spraying the tent down every couple hrs to keep the RH up. The 3second bursts, 3seconds on/3seconds off, keeps my tent right about 57%RH so perfect for veg. If i put it on constant mode itll bring the humidity up to 65% so perfect for seedlings/young plants!!! My plants look like they are loving it! I got one for each tent and im super stoked on the results!!!

The sisters are doing great, one started looking a little light, and they were getting thirsty, so they were both fed 50% dose of FoxFarm soil trio wk2-3 veg, 25% dose BloomCity Silica Boost, and 1/2tsp of Blackstrap Molasses per gallon. They were each fed a half gallon. They should really take off now! Planning on topping at node 6 or 7 depending on how tall they get and starting to train them under the net once they recover from topping and show new growth. Watch out guys, im gonna grow some beauties!!! The rate these are growing ill probably have to flip in a couple weeks just so i dont out grow my tent!

Topped the girls yesterday! They look great and show no signs of slowing down. I went with the FIM technique of topping as to maximize the potential for as many tops as possible as im probably going to scrog these out!

Today the girls got their first real training session! I started by removing the two lowest sets of leaves on the plants as they were completely blocked and were only disrupting airflow. Next i tucked all the big fan leaves under the branches they were blocking, working clockwise so everything is in the same orientation. Lastly i removed the top largest fan leaves that were shading everything beneath them so they branches can really start growing. I took pictures of the steps so you can see how i work. The girls will be fed tonight before lights out with the same feed they received last time.

Gurls got tied down today befpre they get too stiff, i was able to get them to a full 90* which makes me happy, i also put a tie holding the base of stem from the other direction as to not pull the whole plant over and break root mass. These girls are moving FAST!!! Daily training sessions now to keep up, i could probably knock it all out in a day but i like to not put the plants thru too much stress if it can be avoided. So i gues it was a 3-day process of 1)topping 2)defol and leaf tucking 3) LST tie down. I did soften the stems a bit before wrenching them over and when the leaf stem or petioles are too short, i kind of supercrop the leaves by softening the stems so they can be trained out of the way of bud sites/branches.

Dropped the Scrog net!! Now that theyve been topped and tied down they will be trained under the net and cleaned up before flower!! I give it a week or two tops!
