Hey all. I'm starting the thread a bit deep into my grow, but I expect this to be the first post of many.

Here's my setup:
Gorilla Grow Tent 5x5
Versatile hydroponics 4 site RDWC system
3 home made bubble buckets
Advanced Nutrients Connoisseur Bloom/Grow
Black Dog Phytomax2 800w light
Hydroguard

I'm growing multiple strains. I popped a couple mystery seeds that I had saved over the years (I think it may be gorilla glue) while I waited for my candy queen seeds to arrive. I also planted a few jack Herer. When my candy queen arrived I through 2 feminized of her in the box as well

Added my scrog. Now have 4 plants in buckets. Added drippers instead of top feed for the buckets to help them grow more roots

Sprouted my candy queens. Created a bubble bucket out of an old cat litter container for the jack.

That brings us to the present, we are about 3 or 4 days into flowering. I've just given the plants their first dose of bloom nutrients and bud blood.

@Killaki Plants have grown so many fan leaves in the first week of flowering I'm tempted to do more defoliation to expose the lower bud sites, but I've been told to wait 3 weeks before doing more defoliation. Any suggestions? Prune large fans now or wait 2 weeks?

Damn fine looking ladies you have there. If it were me I'd wait to trim till after the stretch so I know what leaves I have to work with to finish. It's really up to you though, they don't appear stressed but I'm always cautious.
