Looks a bit heavy on the nitrogen, back off a little. I would also trim off all of the bottom growth to halfway up.

Roger that on the Nitrogen - I made a feed mistake a few waterings ago - it’s been recovering. I was planning on doing some trimming once the new shoots from the topping have developed a bit more - is it an urgent type of thing or something to do before switching to 12/12? Thzz as k you

Hi all, I germinated this Citrus Farmer Fem 1st week of December in a bio degradable cup buried in a 2 quart pot and then transplanted into a 5 gallon grow bag on 12/28. It’s growing a homemade organic soil on 18/6 light schedule with a Spider 4000 that draws 410W - no idea how much light but it’s pretty bright. It gets watered once a week with some cal mag added every other watering. I’ve been adjusting the PH to ~6.7 using PH down. I attempted a FIM after it had 5 sets of fan leaves which kinda worked - last week I topped all of the substantial branches. I have little control over humidity and it’s typically 40%, temp is 74 degrees with light on and goes down to 69 in the dark. I am a novice for sure but I’m pretty sure it’s doing very good so far. Since I have an 8 foot ceiling I was planning on letting it grow until its about 2.5 feet tall before switching to 12/12 lighting. Just curious if my opinion is correct or if you guys see anything funky with it that I dont.

Looking great for a first time grow. Be weary some strains can really stretch. If you flower a 1 ft plant, you can often end up with a 3 ft plant by the end of flowering. Keep in mind you need room for your light to be a safe distance above the canopy. 2.5 feet could end with a 7-8 ft plant, depending on the strain.

Yikes - I have no idea hall tall it grows - it is 60/40 sativa dominant - my light surface can go as high as 7 ft off floor and plant is about a 9 in above floor - perhaps I can make a mesh to spread branches out more once it starts to stretch to try and keep it lower if it is a tall grower or switch it 2 ft - I’ll have see if there is any of that type info around
