Awesome. I was hoping topping would be possible because I was afraid if I used the scrog it might eat up too much room horizontally. Plus I kinda want to keep a mother of it and see how it does outside when legalization passes here.

I would pull the branches down and spread those out. Tge new branches that form will make some wonderful clone material. Oddly the lower branches tend to clone easier than tops, probably because they would typically lay on the ground and set root there.

Thatās definitely info I wasnāt aware of. Up until now Iāve been kind of wary about pulling clones from the lower areas, even though Iāve been told to, because they seem under-developed and weak. Iām thinking about doing a one clipping clone experiment with my little 12 watt LED just to test my method even though thereās a likely chance it will fail even if I do everything right.
Looking good. Keepāem green.

So Iāve decided to transition over to using tap water. The PPM reading on my tap is about 160 and from what Iāve read that is acceptable. I will probably grab a filter for it as well as the ppm reading out of the fridge filter is about 100. Other than that the one tall plant has decided to grow at a scary rate. I attempted to install a scrog early because I canāt keep moving the lights up 2 inches every day for this one plant.
Itās also seemingly burning itās leaves more than the others and I canāt tell if itās doing better or worse due to the cal mag. All the other plants seem to love it.
Iām hoping to flower in 3 weeks but idk if thatās gonna be possible if this one plant continues to grow at an inch per day.

I watched several videos yesterday where they just grabbed the top and bent it over and tied it down. Now dont go doing that unless someone tells you to that isnāt a first year rookie like me.

If I widen it out enough to drop it level with the other plants itās gonna take up 4 SQ ft just by itself. I was debating topping it down but Iām not quite ready to do the clone starts with the clippings I get from it yet. Idk just feeling a little indecisive at the moment.

Attempted to supercrop? the unwieldy plant in the back right before it decides to kiss the lights. The past week or so Iāve seen quite a bit of growth and new smells so I may attempt to be patient and give them another 2 weeks before flipping to flower.

This is what happened with mineā¦it tried standing up all the way again so I had to actually tie it down.

I may just have to do that. I was gonna use the scrog to hold it down but honestly Iāve got no clue what Iām doing with the scrog and I kinda wanna take it down.
I wanna be able to drag the plants out for full on individual attention for pruning and stuff and thereās just not enough room in the 4x4 tent with 4 plants. I feel like with a little experience and some extra attention I could get the same kinda coverage with 2 plants and not much added extra time.

I have 3 in my lil 2x2ā¦This was obviously too many, but i kept them small just to get this first grow outta the way. But im going for 2 next time. 4x4 seems fine for 3 or 4 plants but I guess if you want some biggunsā¦

How did your bent branch do once the buds started getting heavy on it? Or is it still not in flower?
