Ok they are at 12 now. I have 3 in soil, 3 in buckets( bubble ponics experiment) and 1 huge bitch in a waterfarm. all show great life signs. I notice that the bubble ponics have much more vegetation on them than the soil ones have and more side branching. I cut away some of the lower leaves and shoots but the girl in the waterfarm has bud from mid section all the way to the top. I wanna trim off some of the fan leaves to allow more light to the smaller buds under the cluster. Is this ok to do? Will it stall the plant? They are under a 600 watt hortilux hps in a cool tube.
