English isn't my first language please excuse any bad wording and such.
I apologize for the long post but I have many questions.
I’ve grown autos for maybe two seasons indoors now with some crap mars led lights but I started an outdoor photo garden as I wanted to start producing higher yields and avoid the electricity bills. However, my photo plants aren’t planted in water such as the autos were so I feel I can and need to learn a lot.
This is only my second attempt at growing photoperiods and my second attempt at outdoor growing as well so please be kind.
information that might help with any tips
Detroit Michigan
Soil: Ocean Forest / regular earth after transplant
Nutrients: Dry Fertilizer - Fox Farm All Puropose and beginning to add Fruit and Flower. I also add Grow Big slightly to the water maybe once a month and foiler spray a very low mixture.
I’m looking for any tips or information to help me turn my girls into the best I possibly can. From extra nutrients to help me getting some real sticky sap filled bud to anything else.
Main questions I have right now is regarding trellising these plants and defollilation. I probably should have done it a lot sooner. And I have no idea what I’m doing or what would be my best course or action Is me bending and weaving such a large plant such as below a bad thing? Will it actually help me achieve higher yields than just letting them grow without a trellis and bending?
But I'm also willing and eager to hear any tips on anything regarding helping me turn these into the best possible girls I can.
Photo of 1 I really bent and stuffed below netting.
this is another plant I attempted to trellis I was able to manipulate some of the branches down to be weaved in but I still have large branches that I can’t bend to much without snapping. My plan has maybe put another trellis over top of another half if the growth catches back up from the bottom parts I netted down.
This is prior to trying to net thee above plant
This one I just threw a net over to let it grow and then maybe stake it down eventually.
But I'm wondering if I were to just stake my lower branches down around the entire plant instead would that hurt my yield/kolas on those branches? With those branches tied down and the top to just freely grow. (low branches circled).
There is tomato cages in nearly all of them so they do have some support already
they all started in 5gl or 15g fabrics and had transplanted into the ground maybe early June for some others have been within the first week of July.
Here's a photo of them before I started trying to net them.
Any tips on anything would be greatly appreciated
