Good stuff. I’m going to give it a try this evening, I’ll be sure not to overdo it.
BUt at the same time, dont be scared to snip off a big ol' handfull of leaves. I like to bounce around the plant, pick the big long ones first, and just see what opens up. Just my two cents. I just make sure everything gets light.

A big handful of leaves, I’ll try because I’m a bit nervous about this whole process because I’ve never attempted it before.

Hah, I know its scary the first time. I felt that way too. But remember you're growing a weed. its resilient. unless its already a really sensitive strain, it should do just fine getting a haircut. opens up airflow, light, and will overall provide a nicer environment. If you aren't sure, cut some now, and then look at it again tomorrow. Maybe you'll see it differently with fresh eyes.

Thanks for the reminder it’s a weed lol. I’m going to go ahead this evening and start slowly opening them up.

Curious, what's the 3 alight thing all about? Any links anyone can throw out there?
Aloe is bomb, I use it for cloning gel. Sometimes I water with it but mostly coconut juice is what they get.
The ROLS thread over in the organics section has a huge list of things you can water in or use as foliars. Good knowledge resource

I didn’t know anything about it. In veg I watered a couple of times with seaweed but that was it. I’ll check out the Organic section too.

No really, it's not that revolutionary, just best practices imo if you plan to have a crowded canopy. We'll get there. Glad you all will be following. please tell me when i can do things better. Learning so much from everyone else.

I’m learning a lot from observing everyone else too, always room for improvement I see. It’s comforting having help along the way, especially when unexpected obstacles occur. Having you guys post opinions and encouraging words has helped me tremendously. I’ll most definitely help out whern I can too.

From my understanding it is abusing your plants to make them stronger then shwazzing them (taking off every leaf ) of the plant first day of flower and the 20th day of flower while running a 1000 watt light with four plants , 7 Gal buckets , and you achieve close to 3 pounds a light depending on the strain, I’m willing to give it a go for a round and see what happens,

I know a lot of people who grow and they always give me there input, sometimes I listen sometimes I don’t,

Day 18
Cleaned the bottom of a couple of plants , after I see how they respond in the next 24 hours will determine if I continue.

Reducing the feed back to 1/2 strength, noticed a bit of clawing on two plants that developed overnight. No nutrients burn on the tips but I still think that’s what caused it , or from possibly from when I threw the ph off.

Day 18
Tall plant in the back has slight claw on one fan leaf so does the plant to the right of it , not sure if it was the feed or the Ph issued I encountered. I doubt that one fan leaf will ever fully recover.... next time I’ll follow my first mind, less is more. 1/2 from here on out.
