for you next run, start your lights a little higher, 900 in veg is keeping the plant very dense, 800-900 is great in peak flower, that is probably why you are seeing more praying from the plant now. If the lights start out a little higher you can weave the plant into the net more a get more top budding sites. Over all your first run is looking great though. Well done

Did the final heavy defoliation and lollipop!! A lot taken off, but loads left on. Much better for her. She was unbelievably bushy. Had so many small stems shooting off with tiny bud sites. Got rid of them. Should have some fatty lady nugs

She’s got a droop for sure. I’m guessing she will need a day to repair

Probably, I usually defoliate early flower and then post stretch if there is an air flow or light issue

She was hella bushy bush. Hahaha :) I heard and read a few things that said not to stress during stretch, but to wait till after to do a heavy defoliation. As to not stunt the stretch, but to allow better flow for the final bud forms. I’m new, so I’m just nervous as heck lol

Decided to move the light up abit. Seeing some hairs changing color, assuming it’s light stress. Checked ppfd, it’s 1800 in the centre of the canopy, so I’m raising it abit. Going for 1200 ppfd

Could be the genome, but I feel after the stretch that it might just be too high a canopy for where the light is sitting.

Adjusted to 1200in the centre. Some of the higher bud sites are 1300ish, but the later ones are 800ish. So I’m thinking it’ll be a tit for tat type deal. She’s looking lovely though

You're underwatering, you should be giving closer to 5 liters in a 5 gallon pot. I fear she doesn't have a deep root system based on what you've posted about your watering habits. Correct now so you don't crash in weeks 4 to 5.
Also, she's squatty because you've given her too much light from the beginning.

I’m up to 4 litres of water every 3 days. She drains from the bottom often with that much water. Totally agree though. The light I couldnt situate properly cause it changed through the grow. I started it with a 20w bulb in cardboard. No humidity, no nutrients. Then got a 60w led and made a bigger cardboard box! Then I got a 100w light, was suppose to be 150w from someone in town and a grow tent. Got nutrient around week 4 of the grow sadly :(
All a learning curve

I’ve been using the photone app on my phone. After it’s calibrated, it works really well! I have an iPhone, so I have to make a diffuser unless I buy one, but it’s a +\- 10% difference. So I take that in mind and aim for the high side since my canopy stretched in fun ways!
