White Widow ~ Phoenix Seeds ~ DWC ~ 3

Time for more nutes! Roots are about to take off 🚀🚀🚀 (The last two days has shown a huge uptick in growth!) We are about one week behind due to the last grow taking a little longer than expected - but all seems fine. Water could be chilled a little better, but with dropping the water level, it shouldn't matter anymore as with my previous grows. Microbe parties are starting to show themselves. Water level is now at 3g (2'' from netcup) - future grows I will be using smaller buckets for the first two weeks of veg, so as to save some time/effort/monies (2-3.5gl buckets) Will be time for LST / Tie-Downs soon! Allowing them grow into 15'' from lamp from here on. Noticed one gal spit out an extra leaf-set and auxiliary! Neeto!?...Do I go for 9...or 12??? 😜 ~~~~~~~~~~ Top / Defol Time! Could wait a bit longer but they are starting to look a little cramped so I jumped on it now. Not getting enough airflow on the end so I threw in another small fan to keep things circulating! Took off the two bottom sets of fan leaves / larf. All set to start stretching a bit! Roots are exploding! Decided to train them the same as the OG kush in my first grow - two tops, off 4 sets of branches, instead of the typical three tops off 2 sets of branches. This should save us a week (although less stable - this grow I'm hoping all will be relatively the same height and allow for a trellis! Otherwise its back to Rope / Ties / Yoyo's!) (Gal with the 3 leaf-set was getting a bit cramped - thinking that she was a little airflow-deprived, so she got the extra fan! Same top method as the others but since she has an extra auxiliary, its 3 up top / 2 below for a 10 set) ~~~~~~~~~~ Mornings / Nights are starting to get cold here in MO, and being up in a 2nd story room - temperature's have started to hike into the 80's. I let it go for awhile but now its pushing 90. Time to switch back to venting the AC directly into the tent space* & get back down to 76-82f.
