Nice...
I got a Hulkberry which is bb(#3) and a strawb OG mutt.
You have any issues with that one?
Any reason you let them Xmas tree?
Look like healthy plants.

I think you should have topped it.

Take 6-8 inches off that top. Now. You’ll have a strange shaped plant otherwise.

Topping could reduce the overall expected yield at this point, no? Wouldn't LST be a better approach?
If you're patient and careful you can bend that plant into an even canopy without topping. Look up Low Stress Training.

I had a issue once believe it or not I use super compost tea and over night healthy again and I just did some light pruning today

When you top all the branches become big kolas and you get a more even canopy.

You could have topped them and vegged them out substantially farther.

I see a lot of people growing 1 or 2 plants in a tent without training and wasting so much space. Maybe they don't care about yield and they like there plants in their natural shape..

Just doesnt make sense to me. I believe i see two bigass lights..... Why run two bigass lights if not concerned about yield? Why have a CO2 bag. It just doesnt add up.

I dk new to indoor grow 2 run that is a room that is sealed so is the co2 bag not necessary and the plants above 1 run I pulled 7 ounce off both plants not bad I dont think and the smoke was really good 3 run thinking about scrog I bought the net already really I was just getting some experience under my belt and the plant in the back I topped didn't get no more than the one with the big cola but if u guys have any suggestions or pics of your plants please share iam always ready to learn I thought those plants look pretty good thanks

I don't think it's so much about 'caring' as it is about having the experience and tough love to top those first plants to get to a filled canopy in the first grow. Can you remember your first grow, where the last thing you wanted to do was cut the plants. We didn't learn about training techniques until we found the forum Overgow way back when.
@Green bud 79 don't let all the critics phase you, those plants are great and clearly you gained experience from this that will help you for the next run. For the next grow, if you veg longer and top/train your plant(s) you can work towards filling the grow space with a level canopy where each cola is as big as the main one on your current plants.
IMO your grow space could easily fit 4 plants, or just veg 2 for a longer period. I would suggest researching tips on getting an even canopy, topping, low stress training.
Nice use of garden wire to support your plants btw! That wire is also great for Low Stress Training if you decide not to install a screen or trellis.
Cheers!

Im new to growing and ive never been afraid to beat my bitches. I started with a dozen plants though. Might as well max the legal limit.

HAHAHA
Yeah starting off with a dozen plants, would be a reach for many first time growers (IMHO). None of my friends listened when I said, "2-4 of the same strain is a good way to begin". It had to be 6+ strains and the legal plant limit in their state. Rookie mistake

Your plants are fine don't worry about others that grow their plants differently. They're your plants. If you want to grow them the way you did that's your business. I grow plants naturally like that all the time.
I don't see what the big deal is that the OP let their plants grow the way they did. I flower plants all the time without doing any training other than a supercrop here or there sometimes nothing. Some of us don't veg and train for months. We veg a short time and flower. Some may not want to spend a bunch of time training for SCROG or LST. I can start a plant from seed and be close to harvest in the time some spend training in veg. I go for more quicker turnaround rather than a long veg and a larger harvest. I see many growers spending months training their plants. That's fine but not the only way to grow. I'd go SOG before I spend months training LST or SCROG. Set them and forget them is how I like to grow. I'm done fiddling with cannabis plants. I want to grow them with as little effort required as possible. But I understand that some enjoy spending time playing with their plants. I'd rather play with my dogs in the backyard.
