wow, hows this for a delayed response...lol. yer ladies look Great! and what a clean setup. well done.

ok, in no particular order, yield was never fully tallied, overwhelmed with harvest, drying, trimming, trimming, trimming, and so on...less than i'd hoped for. I made numerous mistakes such as watering with a strong stream from hose, use of very cold water, insufficient root development due to such nonsense. consequently, with so many un controlled variables I was unable to reach any conclusive results regarding the pvc pipe thingies. I use smaller wider airpots now, and use a 2:1 premium siolless mix to -perlite blend with added dolomite instead of a soilless base with organic amendments.

last question I think, how long veged? no freaking idea other than a long time. and super-lst-fim-bendiy canopy management. BTW, leaf removal in my now more experienced opinion is only helpful in very limited, selective manner - no large solar panel leaves in inner perimeter, and only enough removal to open up a bit of light penetration and added critical air movement. I do, however, start pulling yellowed and other dying material progressively over last two weeks of flower, with last week or so fairly defoliated, and most shite off for last three days, no water.

Namaste.
