Hello B Don't worry about the bottom leaves dying off that's absolutely normal

I've always wondered about the amount of space you have but still give the little one a chance.
One of my faults is always growing to many plants for the space I have to grow in, this prevents light from reaching the bottom of the plant. This is why my plants produce very small buds at the bottom. They are still ok for smoking but I just cut them up and force dry them in a shoe box, they don't seem worth hanging up to dry.

Can I just tell you what I would do with you're grow and space. Now I'm only just saying my thoughts I'm not saying you should do this.
I would not pinch/top them, it causes two diagonal stems to grow which inturn makes the tops of the plants spread. I wouldn't let them grow to large before inducing, I would go by the looks of them to decide when but I wouldn't let them go above around 15 inches in height before switching to 12/12. The thing is they will grow quite a bit more after starting inducing and they will spread width ways as well.
Like I say B, that's just what I would do

Also out of 9 plants I would be expecting maybe 4 males which would help release some space.


How do they look?................ To me they look exactly as they are supposed too, a really "by the book grow", spot on
