YES -thats whats up. Thats exactly what I was referring to was keeping it the structure of just 1 central main cola or as you said best " in the circumference of the pot" itself. No crowding and plenty of light to grow that central cola. High plant count, large central colas on each one = weight.Funny you mention that , I do take a lot off as you can see in pics. After a little reading on the dreaded defoliate topic , was planning on leaving a bit more on ,at least on the top . Could you offer up some more details please HydroRed . Im open to ideas and have been known to pluck a fan leaf here and there .I try to keep all growth in the circumference of the pot .
The second plant up on the outside looks like a beauty . Looks like a green Poinsettia .The far ones been veggin a week. Gonna flower next week i thinkView attachment 4061534
