crucial update
crucial update
towers are blowing up, im thinking stretch is over entirely, so we went in today and did round 2 of LST, pulling branches down, out, and away from the cups....
here is a pic of a tower i am leaving untrained for the moment:
^^ nice solid canopy, evenly covering the cups entirely, you cant even see the cups! this "look" to the towers inspires me to do no training at all, hence the standard "budsicle" style of colosseums needing no training at all since each plant is a single stalk of bud, where as i have very very branchy plants that have been topped 2x in some cases.
^^ here are 3 towers that have just been LST'd, now you can clearly see the cups.... im afraid i pulled some back a lil too far, like on the far left tower and far right side of the pic also, but i did the work w lites out under green light, and im guessing that when lites come back on and phototropism kicks in them puppies will be twistin right back into the bright zone of the donut of light.
^^pic i took after training but before lightly defoliating yellowing leaves; and some lil itty bitty bottom nodes, before the above pic was taken
