Hello everyone,
They are officially entering week three of veg!
And honestly, they are looking pretty bare right now and definitely not fine.
I just gave them a major, heavy defoliation.
Right now, there are practically no leaves left on them—just the bare branches and nodes staring back at me.
It looks a bit brutal, but it was a necessary step to finally get this thrips situation under control and ensure the light hits exactly where it needs to.
They look less like a lush garden right now and more like a bunch of green twigs trying to survive a storm, but we know the rebound is going to be massive.
The environment in the tent is still holding perfectly steady while they sit under the lights to recover from the shock:
Environmental Metric Value Range
Daytime Temperature 26°C
Nighttime Temperature 21°C
Relative Humidity 62% – 65%
So, let's see how they look next week and hope for a quick recovery!
Thank you for stopping by and have a nice day.
Best regards,
Growfather
