I do alittle minor trimming practically everyday. I'm pretty much removing any leaves blocking branch tops, and I'm trying to clean out the middle of useless leaves right now. But, this plant grows foliage constantly. I'm also trying to leave some leaves on for energy. I got both on my mind.

Also, I'm getting ready to crank up the LED from 80 % to 100 % in a few more days. I wanted the buds to get 2 weeks under their belt first. I always keep the distance at 15 inches.

What light are you running?
Just curious because my plants would burn at 15" and 100% under the lights I use.

When I flip, I'm at 40% intensity and will raise it 10% each week for the first 2 weeks. Then I'll raise it to 80%-100% for the next 3 weeks. Then the last few weeks I start lowering intensity again.
I keep my lights at 18"-24" during flower.

I thought this was an interesting read about cycling intensity.

I think having C02 the whole gro probably helped with photo, and absorbing energy maybe ! There not burnt, and they're not praying, so something is helping. Got top nutes. So, idk. You tell me. I'm just speculating.

In my 8x4, I run 2 Vivosun VS4000 and 1 HLG Scorpion Rspec 600w.
Seedlings 30"- 30%
Early Veg 30"- 30%
Mid-Late Veg 30" let it grow to 24", raise light to 30" or lst to 30", repeat.- 40%, some strains I have to keep at 30%
Early flower 24"-30" - 50% 1st week, 60% 2nd week
Mid Flower 18"-24"- 80%-100% 3 weeks
Late Flower 18"-24" - 60% 1 week, 50% 1 week, 40% 1 week then 30% until finished.

In my 55"x28"x80" I have a Spider Farmer SE4500, it's my first grow with it but I started at 20% and all through veg couldn't go above 30%.
I'm middle of flower now and can't go over 70% and 24".

Plants don't need a ton of light in veg, I save the higher intensity for flower, keeps the tent cooler as well.

Must be the co2, it's definitely interesting how much more they can handle.

I have a 300-watt Maxsisun and I start it at 30% @ 18" (about 300 PAR) Then I will raise it 50 PAR every couple days...like ~7%, until I hit 500 PAR which is about 500 PAR. I don't like to veg over that.

When I flip, I raise it 50 PAR every four or five days until I hit 100%, which is about 900 PAR. If my leaves don't show signs of burn, I will lower the light a bit during week 6 of flower. I also slowly back off the last couple weeks. It helps keep the terps from volatizing away.

You got more juice than me too right ?! Or, maybe it was all the foliage this plant produces. I swear I never grew a plant that was this plump, and vigorous before. GodfatherOG is supposed to be super tough too I here. Maybe everything combined.

Now you got me nervous.
Maybe I'll bump it up to 18, the same time I turn to 100.
It worked last harvest and that was similar: black gorilla. Idk.

Leaves 'pray' when they want more light. If they are laying horizontal, they are quite happy, and if they are pointing down, they want less. If the leaf edges are bent up, they are hot

These are the signs I have always used to judge conditions.
