Need some help here, plant pruning problem。

[CN-man]

As you can see, my plant should have been stopped for 2 weeks for some heat stress reasons.
Now that I solved the problem, the new leaves are very long and block the light from the branches below.
The plant is now 30 days, 10 cm (3.9 in) tall, 15 cm (5.9 in) wide.

Should I trim out the big new leaves on the top?

No. Don’t trim anything from a plant that small unless you’re trying to bonsai the thing. Wow. 30 days you say?

Ok, thank you, it’s a bit small,
Yes, 30 days,
There was no growth before because of thermal stress. He was only a few centimeters tall and so large within two weeks.

Maybe the growth rate is still a bit slow, but she looks healthy.
I only hope that planting can be successful, I have failed several times.

When do you start the clock? Is day1 the first opening of cotyledons?
Or if germinated seed gets repotted?

After the paper towel sprouts
First day in the cocosoil

I wouldn't trim anything until you're well into flowering personally; all the while its vegging you'll want those big shadeleaves to suck up the light and have the plant do its thing. Once it is turning its attention to bud forming, particularly when leaves are yellowing, you can trim (look at lollypopping etc).

The rule of thumb I use is not to cut away anything until flowering starts, and I only pull away leaves that are ready to go. The only thing that gets a prune-proper with the secateurs are nonsense lower branches that produce a parody of popcorn.

plant that small and for how old it is i would not trim. if your having heat issues run fans/exhaust and what i do is supplement with silicone. i used to run co2 but because i dont seal my room it wasn't doing as much as it could have been doing. i specifically don't run my lights past 18/'6 anymore due to heat stress as well i used to run 24/0 or 20/4. any chance i get i open up my tent to exhaust even further it helps by 1-2 degree's only but i do it just to play it safe. i do it only when im home and can for a few hours.

plant does look healthy imo but for 30 days it is fairly small. are you making sure your PH is correct? i see a LOT of people growing in coco but using soil PH instead which is a BIG no no coco grows want a lower PH if i am not mistaken 5.5-6.0 ph?

I moved the tent into the room with AC and added a humidifier.
I bought a PH test solution to correct the PH value.
I may have some problems besides the use of nutrient solution, I can't think why she is so slow.
About the nutrient solution, it was given to me by a friend. I don't know the ingredients. I only know when to use it. It looks healthy now.

Her leaves will sag before turning off the lights, and he will come back before turning on the lights. I don't know why.

i think that is normal because if you ever look at your plants when the lights have been off for like 1 hour they are all droopy when the lights come back on they perk up. what % solution are you giving and how often? i give my plants food once a week but i started off at i believe 20-50% only but now that they are big i give 100% and the rest of the week is just straight water. healthiest plants i've gotten so far. i've done feed,water,feed and feed every watering of course lower dosages due to how often i am feeding but they didn't turn out as great as my plants in my current grow.

my plant grows slow vertically but she is bushy i had to chop her up a few times. maybe that could be the reason? maybe your working with an indica dom pheno?

My plant leaves will sag and an hour before turning off the lights.
Then, resume again one hour before turning on the lights.
I only fed twice nutrition, once before 9 days, 300ppm, and the second was 5 days ago. 450ppm.
I haven't seen his obvious growth today, but there are a few small branches on the stem that are full of her little body. Very dense in my opinion, but the big leaves on the top block their light.

i honestly wouldn't worry because those tend to die off first anyways or get pruned later on because naturally they will get shaded anyways eventually and produce popcorn buds. you gotta worry more about slow growth cause that typically means something is wrong. i haven't really had any major issues with slow growth except for when i over watered. roots would drown and plants grew slow and eventually died from root rot. i over fed many times plants grew fine but showed obvious over feeding signs but growth wasn't slow i even fed into nutrient lock out once.

yea but even if it's a hybrid each seed has a specific pheno. unless your growing from clones each seed is a different pheno regardless if it's the same strain. if you ever grow multiple plants of the same strain you will see. they don't grow all the same. i've grown 3 usually all same strains per grown 1 is usually short and bushier then the other 2 and slower grower until i flip the other 2 get more vertical growth. that is just my experience though from my blue widows and strawberry cough all grown in the same setup nothing different. this is why people clone off there best pheno's to preserve the genetics of that plant

I plan to feed N-3-P-1-K-1 nutrients plus seaweed extract and plant growth stimulating hormone tomorrow.
I am using coco soil. I just found that there is still a lot of water at the bottom of the basin. The middle of the basin is almost dry. I think the root development is not very good. The water at the bottom is not absorbed by the plants.
I hope he can increase the speed of vertical growth.

Sounds like a good plan i dont grow in coco only soil so i cant help there it looks nice overall just slow for 30 days just keep as is imo and watch it. I think if you corrected problems already it will start to pick up soon

circadian rhythm is what causes that to happen.

It’s been 24 hours since I added the nutrient solution. It seems to be still very slow. Just like it was frozen by time, I tested the water PH from the pot, which is 6.3. I will lose my patience. Fuck, why is it so hard!！！

Yes, I think the leaves are drooping to store energy. Like some plants will do this,
