They look good. I am questioning the cupping of the upper leaves though. Not sure if it is heat or light stress. But it is close to the limit on one of them. May be a little thirsty? I'd move the lights up a few inches and see if the leaves open up again. I would also do some defoliation for air flow. That window is closing fast though. I stop trimming at week 5 of flower.
Hi MICH-CAN, thank you for your post. I will move the lights up a little maybe six inches tomorrow when lights come on. I know it wont be heat stress mate as i do find it hard to reach 25 degrees, i get close but it never goes over.
I also did do a post about trimming and the general consensus was to leave as many leaves specially fan leaves on as possible. I did a small defoliation at and end 2nd week of flower, and read i should do one more at 5 week or flower, exactly as you do with yours mate.
But this strain is a very leafy one and im now finding it hard to just bend the leaves and leave enough space for light and air to get through. I did try the "lollipop" method i think its called where i stripped all bud sites etc from about 1/4 way up the plants, as to leave no popcorn or under developed buds.
I may do a defoliation half way through this week, to let light through, then another one next week to make sure no unwanted leaves are in the way.
Do you keep as many fan leaves as you can though? As ive read the plants need them till the end due to photosynthesis, or have they served their purpose by week 5?
Just cant wait till its done so i can pot it all up so i know i have (hopefully) decent medicinal medication so im not paying approx $40 every week for CBD oil to try and help.
Thank you for all your feedback mate, so much to take in and remember and try to get right for a newbie with issues that cause short term memory, but im still doing my best to keep it in, and just keep coming back to posts ive done and where such helpful members as yourself have left very good information.
Thank you so much MICHI-CAN
