Week one of flower (well technically in 12 hours). Already putting off a potent delicious citrus smell. Hopefully these girls still produce.
These plants look super healthy and happy so just keep em going don't mess with them too much they're gonna be great. If you flipped now they will be monsters already 👍

You will have to raise the net a little more and spread them out when you flip

I flipped last 10 days ago. I tried to spread them as much as possible. Actually broke a few fibers. I messed up and topped super late so I’m stuck with big ass branches that are little tree trunks. When they stretch a little more I’m going to add another net and try to spread them out more. Yea mostly everyone said take it easy and dont do to much at once. I’ll start with the dying leaves and then go from there. Since my pic on Friday they have already went nuts. Very satisfying to see these girls grow. Thanks!

Day 14 of flower. Did a light trimming last water cycle and will light trim every week. One plant seems to be behind the other three. I experimented with all four plants. To see for myself first hand which trim method worked the best. Raised my net to try and spread out the canopy (def not the most even). All in all I think she looks good for my first grow! Thanks for all the help. Any and all input is taken constructively.

Wait until day 21ish. after budset is complete. Only remove what’s necessary. Don’t overdue it.
Keep up the good work! I see amazing things in your future growing. You have a natural hand for it👊

Is this just a leaf dying? It’s under the canopy so I assumed it’s a dying leaf. Just want to make sure before it gets unrepairable if not. Thanks!

Appreciate the quick reply. Big 21 day trim coming up. Gonna tackle these right now though.
Day 21 is a reference point. Some I pluck out earlier, some later.

Will have more photos Friday. When it comes to trimming do you keep all bud site? Or trim the lower small one?
If the bud site has adequate light. Keep.
I would rather remove a leaf, than remove a bud, but I loath 🍿. So, some has to go.

If there is good adequate light. The buds develop top to bottom nearly.

Alright. I have plenty of light as my whole 4x4 isn’t covered in canopy. I do have one plant Inhad to lift about 6 inches that was falling behind hopefully she catches up. Might just use the other guys method and trim almost anything facing inwards abd whys covering lower bud sites.

Day 21. Starting to get a little frosty and looking good by my eye. Did a light trim of fan leaves blocking lower sites. Probably should have done more but I’m letting the girls rest. One of my plants has like 6 big colas and all kinds of small fan leaves coming out. Looks congested to me on the stem but is still recovering adequate light. Will they just grow into it and look less congested as they grow or should I clear it up next trim.

Day 28. Buds starting to get some mass. Finally got my hands on a monkey 2.0 oscillating fan and it works beautifully. Mr. G my leaf problem was the light burning them. Turned the dimmer down a little bit and everything seems to be back on track.
