Did I prune too much?

[nyxthenightmother]

i feel like i definitely might've been too harsh with the defoliation and i was just curious as to what you guys think? this first pic is a few days before flowering, second pic is first day of 12/12 switch. this is a super quick growing hindu kush girl.

Why not trim off those larfy buds on the bottom half of your plant instead?

 

[nyxthenightmother]

i actually did trim the entire bottom 50% of all foliage. from this angle you can only see the top of the canopy. here's a better pic right after trimming it the night of.

Looks good!! I think you could go up a little higher on the lollipopping. I take 3/4 leaving top 1/3. Just the way I'd do it is all. Defoliation looks good!!!

Personally I'd clean up that future larf too.

woo i know everyone has their own growing techniques, but it sure is a relieve to hear from at least one person i didnt totally mess up

You absolutely did not "totally mess up".
I'd also look at replacing the burple for a full spectrum Led that fits your budget and grow space

i do have a full spectrum LED but it's got an unknown wattage, the blurple is one that is most likely more powerful. what i could do is switch the purple and full spectrum lights so that the flowering plants get full spectrum and veg clones get blurple?

You'll want to figure out what each light is drawing from the wall. Get/borrow a kill-a-watt device. I'd be really surprised if the purple was more powerful, but I've been surprised before.

Still time to super crop and get the canopy level. Give all those buds a chance at some good PAR.

A wee little bit of training would have benefitted this before flowering. Buckets make it easy to drill holes in the rim for tie downs. Training the plant would help you improve your yield in this small space too.

I wish I never got rid of my burple. It was a great Veg light and I didn't know it until it was gone

The lights say the burple is pulling 240v and the full spec is 90v, not sure if this is enough to tell

went over to home depot and bought some trellis plant netting, plant plastic coated ties, and some soft rope for all the tie downs and future scrog applications

this is before and after some pruning and lst.

That's not helpful, do you have a picture of the plate that has that info?

sorry i'm not very knowledgeable on electronics and such, this is my first grow, i'm not home but when i am i'll take a pic of each plate

Perfect, we can get you squared away with it I'm sure.

first one is blurple second is full spec
