Lighting My First Grow - Northern Lights Blue

[Pal23]

Picture update

Hey guys, tomorrow is the first day of week 6 since my girls showed their heads, I had my first try at some LST today on the big girl as she was beginning to take up the whole tent, pretty amateur job but it has definitely saved me some space and she looked happier for it 10 minutes back under the light
The smaller girls is starting to veg out nicely but it looks like it's stunted - I've got the light at 24" away from the smaller plant and 13" above the larger plant (I think the oldtimer bloom has a decent amount of N so she's still going up!) Let me know what you guys think, as always comments and feedback are appreciated Enjoy the photos

Right girl:

Lefty:
(This one is before LST, taking up all the space )



You may notice the two little babies at the back, one is a NLB like it's larger siblings and the other is a Royal Bluematic freebie, I thought I germinated them a long time ago but just pre watered the soil and expected them to somehow grow without planting them, they showed their heads yesterday

One more for you bud porn enthusiasts, this is the best I can do with my phone

Hey man, it's literally only today that I took her down from the even canopy, I'm hoping this will encourage some stretch out of her as she's getting bushy now but not moving upwards - no idea if it will work of course

It might Pal but if not you can just prop her back up , like your thinking buddie

Yeah that's what I'm hoping for, I think it has stayed so small because I did move it up to the light earlier in life - assuming it was the same age as my bigger girl, probably just looking at a little bushy plant for this one but bud is bud, i'll see any deformed or sick plant through til the end if I can save it!

Try some light LST and leaf tucking if you still have some veg time.

Been tucking away every opportunity I get, once she stretches outwards some more I can work some LST on her too

Day 44

Short picture update for you guys, hope you're all well.

First couple are the new babies, some crazy leaves going on for the bluematic


And the rest, the larger girl has just passed the 12" away from LED mark, do you think it's wise to try bending her over or let her go closer than 12"?
