Should I let these two spindly girls grow or cut them out of the flood table?

So, I've got a flood table that's just started flowering last week. Currently, there are 16 plants in the 1x3 space. Pretty cramped, but I wanted to get something stared on flowering so we could have a harvest a little sooner rather than later. Most of these girls took off Pretty well, but there are two that are just spindly sticks. Well, three, but the third actually has it's top in the upper canopy.

So, my wife thinks we should pull out the two tiny ones to give the rest room to bulk up. I personally feel that since they aren't sucking off another plant, then they should get the chance to fight to grow.

I wasn't able to get any decent canopy shots that show them, but I did get some stem shots. It's pretty easy to tell which ones are the scrawny ones. There's one on each side of the white labels, which is why it almost looks like two shots of the same plant. Lol

Kinda hard to tell in those pics but prob needs at least one solid top to be worth it

After you go though this a few times its usually a pretty easy call.

That really small one in the middle should absolutely be pulled. If the other one you are thinking of pulling is the one behind it in the first picture, I can't tell without seeing higher up on the plant. The bottom looks much thinner than the others, but if the top has filled the canopy it may be worth keeping.

They got pulled out this morning... One came with the plug and roots, so I'm trying to save her (not too expecant though), and the other straight pulled out of the plug. Lol

Try using a kelp mix to help revive it. I also usually throw a touch of root enhancing additive also.

I honestly don't care if it survives or not. Lol. If it does, I'm just gonna give it to my step-brother when I go to the other side of the state next week. He hooked us up with some meds when we were broke when he came over for Thanksgiving.

After a while Culling becomes easy and second nature. I clone twice the amount I need and only keep the strongest, the rest go to the trash.

Yea, I'll probably get better at it as time goes on... I gave all the girls haircuts today, and I felt SO guilty throwing away so many potential clones! Gotta get rid of that PM though. I don't want the clones to get that shit!

Try Green Cure. It is one of the most effective ways I know to deal with PM.

The other will be soooo grateful for the little bit of extra space to move into.

Once you have pulled them.
