LST first round, going to pull new branches up and back to fill vacant space next week or 2. Sunday, it was rough so I watered it with plain pH'ed water. Monday, LST, not sure about defoliation as it's an auto... gona think LMK any advice Tuesday, clipped a couple of fan leaves off only about 3. Wednesday, need to up water from 1L/48hr, plant this morning provided no run off Friday, added BioLogic Scanmask Steinernema Feltiae (Sf) Beneficial Nematodes to every plant in the house, pH'd the water to 6.2, removed chlorine and did at night to avoid uv Friday, Day 26, major defoliation and LST. -After looking around a bit this week I decided to go a bit aggressive with defoliation. This is based on a lot of Lucky 75's videos with autos. -LST is to make about 5 main colas in a X shape in the bucket, last grow I did more colas and was unimpressed with yield. Main cola is much higher in photos, but I tied down the other 4 branches well below the top node so I expect/hope/pray they even out and you know, don't die
