    My only concern at the moment is the reaching the biggest of them is doing, it's leaves are literally, as shown in the pics above, reaching for the light as if they were drowning from shade, but it's extremely intense under that hood (Day 19 of Flowering) Edit:: The last one and the fifth one...
