Newbie needs help to trim plant

[RazzleDazzleCrystal]

Hi, this is my Banana Kush at 6 week veg. It had nutrient lockout which i corrected. It was topped too early i found out (my grower cousin told me to top at 3 weeks). It is bushy and undersized. I did major pruning and cutting. I had a canopy of shade leaves. There is mega growth along all the stems. Also, i did a slurry test the other day, the result was 6.53, and I fed with 1.2ml Grow Big in 78 ounces water. Mu Spring water was high pH, so I was able to get it to 6.13 pH for watering using 2 drops pH down. I plan on doinf a slurry test again today to check pH. My QUESTIONs: It has no center branch, I assume because of early topping...will it ever grow one? Should I trim the new growth along branches? How can I get this to grow in height (light is currently 16" from plant.

Yeah pruning the lower foliage will encourage upward growth but you might need to wait a bit for it to grow more. Looks like topping was aggressive and early. I think you pruned too much so need to be patient.

I will be patient other than I'm gonna slurry test today, and it will need watered in a few days...I have been feeding it FF Grow Big, but wondering if I should switch to FF Tiger.

i have been studying the fox farm chart...it appears that i need to use Big Bloom and Grow Big...I will feed just 30% of recommended dose. So mix in big bloom stir well then add grow big and stir again, then water using pH approximately as close as i can get to 6.2-6.3.
