Hello everyone, and good evening.
As an introduction, find below my specs...
This is my first grow and I'm currently growing 3 plants in my small (100/100/200cm) grow tent, under a 150w, 6400k envirolight CF. Nutrientswise, I'm using biobizz stuff. At the moment, Bio-grow and Bio-Heaven. They are growing from femenised seeds, but I still can't tell if they are all fems (hope they are =D).
Anyway.... the grow is going very well so far. The leaves have a very nice green colour, the internodes distance are of around 1 to 1,5 cm and there are currently about 4 or 5 nodes comming off the main stem.
Now... The question....
There are some HUGE leaves comming straight from the main stem. Between the little leaf-branches and the main stem, there are growing some other bud-branches with their very own tops.
These leaf-branches are massive, and they cast a huge shadow on the bud-branches below. Every thing looks absolutelly great, but should I cut off these leaf-branches to let the light reach for the bud-branches below? Would this increase the grow rate of the plant in general?
Other question....
The plants are now 4 weeks old. The plant is VERY dense. The leaves are huge and the main stem is as thick as my finger, but the plants are only a foot tall (maybe less). I wanted to start flowering them by now, but I'm afraid they would be a midget plant or something. Do the plants grow a lot more when they are put to flower?
OK guys! thanks in advance for your answers!
Peace and pot!
