Overcrowded

2nd grow, first time using coco dtw. 12/12 started 5 days ago. The results I’m getting are more than I anticipated I suppose. Im keeping the height somewhat controlled by tucking branches under the net and to new holes. Is this too crowded for the plant? I have the exhaust fan running, a pretty strong oscillating fan at the top of the tent, and a smaller not so strong fan at the bottom. I really wanna cut some of the leaves under the net, especially the ones making it a bitch to get in there and water. Looking for advice guys and gals. Thanks.

Not overcrowded as far as tops and what your canopy will look like at harvest. Like @Hiphophippo said defoliate the lower stuff not getting light and make sure you have good air flow and air exchange.

We looking overcrowded yet? Hope not but it sure feels like it lol. Also very concerned about humidity. 60-70 daytime & it’s been climbing toward 80 at night. Keeping lots of airflow going. Any suggestions?
*temps 70-75 day 65-70 night

Also I don’t know if I can keep weaving, I mean I could but things will get very crowded. Tents height is 5ft and I can only raise those lights maybe 2ft more. Main goal is keeping them from exceeding my height.

I’ve been hesitant to. Really not sure what all to cut.

Remove most everything below the net. If you are hesitant then start with halfway down from under the net and remove everything to the base of the plant.

You’re going to need to get that humidity under control or you’re going to have issues in flower. Defoliation will partly help with that. I’d consider running a dehumidifier as needed as well.

Not over crowded. let them fill out and on day 21 of bloom strip away any obviously overlapping or crowded leaves to get air & light in the canopy. They've still got probably 6-8" of stretch to go depending on strain.
