First Grow: Gorilla Girl DWC with LEDs

Day 32: One of the most beautiful things I am experiencing is seeing the calyxes growing out from the main flower. If it is any indicator, my buds could be growing twice as fat in a few weeks. Trichomes are also gaining height and taking up their mushroom form. Hovering closely, the flowers smell like green pear and young mint. Rubbed between my fingers, she turns into a sugar laden mango and overripe cantaloupe. Am I just making this stuff up? Some of my bottom buds were looking rather leafy so I decided to tuck back any fan/sugar leaves that were covering a site. Problematic ones I snipped off. Feeling over-involved, I also started tugging at some of the flowers away from the stem. In theory, greater exposure to light and air will increase final yield. Can we call this method bud socketing? I would hold the main stem back, then pull at a sugar leaf to dislocate a bud from its original position. I did this form of LST to mid and lower bud sites to utilize greater 3D spacing. Day 35: Found myself with a good laugh reviewing these photos. Grow tent is full of phallic imagery, I cant escape it.
