She's stretching now, and looking nice and even so far, barely any imperfections. Lighting was flipped on June 1st, and as of today light intensity has been set to 20 DLI as I don't want to blast her too quickly yet, and instead will gradually dial DLI up to around 40 (or higher) at the tops by mid-flower, or somewhere in the 900-1000 PPFD range.
There's also some mild chlorosis in new leaves that's been present throughout the grow, and throughout I've been doing foliar sprays with cal-mag-iron-nitrogen, and that seems to be helping after a few days of application. I'm pretty sure it's genetic, as there's also a few leaves that are near albino and unable to get much color other than yellow, which is often an issue with a lack of iron. I'll continue to treat new leaves as they come and try not to defoliate too much, other than some lollipopping after the stretch is over. I may try to find an iron supplement to add to the spray or the reservoir, just to target iron specifically and see if that corrects the issue.
