Help with my first grow - granddaddy purple

Ok done - removed. Feels a bit strange though, did I get the right ones?

Also by an extra week, presumably you mean extend this current veg stage?

Maybe I got a bit excited, but potentially think I chopped two of the smaller ones off my accident.

Any issues/concerns with this? I made sure to just get the fan leaves only.

Looks good.
My rule is this…
Only take half of what you think you should. Cutting helps but too much will slow her down. Just a little then ignore cutting for a while then revist. Only half of what you think you should. That way you leave some and won’t hurt her.

Just my advice. We can always go back and cut, but we can’t glue leaves back on…

Thanks, appreciate the advice and well noted !

UPDATE

What a difference a day makes… Tempted to remove the next largest fan leaves to get light below, as the removal yesterday seems to have had a very positive effect.

I see the light! Is what those bud sites are saying. :joy: I removed some fan leaves also. The bud sites took off. Plant looks fabulous :+1:t2::sunglasses:

Day 25 (early veg 15/21 - extended by one week)

She seems to be very healthy and growing like mad!

At what point should she be topped, once above the first fan?

Five nodes up. Looks ready now? I topped mine around the same time.

Yes have gone ahead and done it now - definitely 5 nodes and topped her.

I assume all good/no issues ?

Looks great :+1:t2:. Those two tiny new ones should start taking off in a few days. I maybe should of let my center get taller but it worked fine.


Four days later. I also as time goes on plan to trim on my water change days. It’s what I’ve been doing. Gives the plant fresh nutrients.

I extended late vegetation a week based on what I’ve seen and read here. Also by the looks of her. We’ll see how she looks in two weeks. Thank you :blush:

Early Veg - day 17/21

She is beefing out significantly, worried about lack of space now but surely will be fine.

Should I be defoliating so soon after topping?

She could use a little hair cut on her fan leaves for sure! Good job on the topping
