    Manifold progressing well. What is the tape for? If it is just the topping, no need to do anything to it. Do you know about softening up the stems before you bend them? Give the stem a firm squeeze to give it a slight crushing injury. This will soften it up so it will not break. It will need to be supported after that. It will heal in several weeks and be stronger than it was.
    Don't worry, be happy, grow sticky buds.

      Thx. Yes, the tape is a band-aid. I noticed the main stem topping didn't heal the way I'm used to seeing so I put the tape over the hole for a while to see what happens. Good point about the woody stems. That's def an option.

    Once you get your canopy nice and flat I'd think you'd have a 4x2 filled around day 45 with ONLY ONE PLANT, give or take, of veg then I'd flip. You have enough head room to let it shoot upwards on the stretch.

    Keep your light going great guns to keep nice tight growth. Nice good breeze helps here too. Continue to LST every day or two, a little bit at a time.

    Your numbers are pretty much spot on but I see you're struggling with a bit low humidity but that's ok, just keep temps a fraction lower also to even out VPD. Keep increasing PPFD so your maybe around the 40 to 45 DLI at the flip which will be about all she can take. Nutes maybe around 1.5 to 1.9 EC.

    When topping I let the plant go 2 to 3 nodes above where I will cut but always cut just under the higher node. Even then I still split them trying to keep them flat.

    Your girls look picture perfect! Fertigate often. Run off around 20% twice a week.

    You're on target for a perfect grow. I'd be supplementing calmag every second watering now around 50% recommended for that stage.

      If I remember correctly, the A5 almost tripled during the stretch the last time I grew it, but it wasn't a mainline grow. I started counting veg 4/24, I'm assuming your day 45 note is in reference to that?

      Day 45 was a stab in the dark as to when to flip. In other words your tent will be full by then and no point going any longer with veg. So yes, in ref to that.

      Last grow, veg, I did in a 4x2 I couldn't get them out of there into the flower room soon enough and ended up with a full tent growing into the light, still in veg. Was a jungle in there.
