After a couple of waterings with a commercial fertilizer my girls are looking better than ever. The yellowing has subsided and the plants have gotten a nicer green color. Thanks to all who gave advice!

    They need to be topped and the bottoms cleaned out. If you are in North America you have plenty of veg time still (aug 15th for Pacific Northwest). One trick you can do is tie a string to the top and bend it all the way down to below the lower branches. This will make the side branches grow taller. I aim to make all the “tops” the same height.

    Any branch that is not going to make it out of canopy can be safely removed which will make the plant put more energy into the branches that will turn to flowers.

    Keep feeding. I didn’t see your old posts but the plants here look fine and have a lot of rapid dense growth and that’s a good sign.

      To OP. This is good advice but don’t feel bad if you don’t follow. Play with your plants and you’ll find your own style of training them. Shit, you might even be the „all natural” guy and thats still fine.

      All that matters is you have some healthy looking plants.

        To be honest, im not trying to maximize yield. The only reason i have two plants is that one of them was slow to germinate. If i get 10% of the promised yield im set for a year😆 Lovely healthy plants is the main mission😊

          Own grown weed is best weed. Nothing better then a jar full of home grown flowers. I like leaving mine roughly trimmed so I get to finish them just before grinding

        Yeah I understand. I come from a commercial cannabis background and old habits are hard to break. Maximum yield with the minimum of larf is the name of the game.
