GeorgeGrowss This is officially my first grow. I have some experience with gardening and especially bonsai. Its going to be quite challenging given the limited height of my tent.

GeorgeGrowss Still keeping the seedling under a plastic bag for maintaining humidity
Gave a very little dosage of Bio Grow, to make sure my tap's water ph is dropped a bit.
I do not really water it by this point, I just spray the surface of the soil and do same little watering at the edges of the pot
I increased PPFD to around 350

GeorgeGrowss The temperature was getting a bit high, so I lowered the light intensity and lifted the pot by 10cm. Now I give around 450 PPFD.
Always under a humidity bag to achive a VPD below 1.
I was looking into topping or heavy LST. Since I have a very small tent and time constraints with the grow I want to keep the Veg, as short as possible so I decided to LST a bit early. Lots of people told me I do nonsensial stuff, but here I am, LSTing quite early.
PPFD 450.
I caused some small injuries to some leafs, but lets consider this training as well 😆
Let me know, if you would go with topping or LST for this setup. If you go with LST, at which node would you cut?
Now that I started LST, should I wait till branches reach 1-2 nodes before flipping? Note the limited space!!
After day 15 I stopped LST and lowered the pot so now getting 350 PPFD. I removed the humidity dome.
I will let it grow some more and see...
There are some brown spots on the leafs, which I assume are from the difference in PH between plain tap water and water with nutrients. Now it should stabilize since I will feed In every watering.
After I abandoned LST I show some good growth, so I decided to top her and keep 3 lowest nodes. I watered 500ml with Calmag and Bio Grow and then topped. Also I kept all the foliage. Topped at end of Day 19 (3 Weeks from Imbibition completed actually).
I will let some growth and then LST branches to the end of the pot.
I also realised some minor smell??

GeorgeGrowss Week 4 is on. The plant is starting to demanding more water. The branches are developing quite well and the plant did not bother the topping at all. I am feeding at every watering.
I kept the big leaves for some days to allow the plant suck their energy.

GeorgeGrowss I keep doing some selective defoliation every few days to allow light reach all stems. Also since this plant is too bushy i defoliate to keep humidity from building up between the touching leafs.
I plan on flipping at the 31/1. I water every two days
