Just my hive brained thoughts…
At week 3 a good strip down would allow bigger development of top sections.
The trellis should be removed if in the way and as you defoliate and top sections either tied and bent as horizontal as you want your canopy. All of those growth tips will turn upward ASAP and could see a bust of development.
I’m not a big defoliator personally and those are about where mine would be after I stripped them to where I usually do. Good lollipopping they should get some pretty good flow under there. Buy a cheap clip fan at Walmart and put it just blasting under the canopy to keep things moving.
I was also going to suggest tongs or something like that for reaching too. Can you get at the back of your tent somehow to cut a small access hatch? I built my box with two doors for exactly this problem lol
Idk i dont want everyone blasting me but i stack em tight like that by accudent all the time. They end up mold free n all. I do minor defol to allow light to seriously blocked budsites and run couple fans. Cheap 20" boxes at floor level gets air through the jungle. And good oscilating between canopy n light.
Nice patch. Buckle up its about to be going down in there.
For me it’s just like you’ve done there…the bottom few inches/nodes. I know people who take like 2 ft off a 3ft plant and I think it’s counterproductive at that point. Some people just do it because they only want big nugs and/or hate trimming lol
I have a small tent 4 x 3 and built a platform for it with casters… just pull it away from the wall and unzip the back… I’d go with the first choice a little more work now rather than allot of agrivatikn the rest of the grow.
My first thought whenever I see a grabber but I definitely feel your pain on when things get way overgrown lol. I’ve had a bad habit of waiting for them to get bigger than they should before flipping to 12/12.
