Should I prune the lower buds and "fox tails"(?) to have a better yield?

Hello, everyone.

I planted a couple of bagseed and one of them turned out male and the other one not showing any claws, so I figured it was female. This was when I didn't have any equipment to grow. So, the potted plant was grown outside in my balcony.

After almost two months, when I got my grow tent and the rest of the equipment I'd purchased, the plant together with two more seedlings were moved inside and the plant was transplanted from soil in an Autopot system with clay pebbles at the bottom and Coco peat as the medium.

My light for the veg period inside the tent was a 350 (actual) watt LED light and for the bloom stage I got a 630 (actual) watt LED.

I use the complete Advanced Nutrients pH Perdect line (3 part nutes+all the additives-1)

As I mentioned above, this is my first grow and not only did I go overboard with the equipment, but I also had to learn everything but by bit from website to forum and many, many articles I read. It's also fun (not for me) to mention that I had to deal with stubborn pests (thrips and spider mites) which I brought in from infected flowers that came to contact with the clones I took from the, apparently, sativa plant that I originally planted. It's also good to know that I took care of them all with Nimbecidine, which is basically Azamax with less concentration, and cypermethrin, which is a synthetic pytemthrum.

Anyway, I scrogged the big plant and I pruned it a couple of times; once in veg and another time during week 3 of bloom.

So, it's been 6 weeks since the 12/12 LC switch and the big plant and the two clones are doing fine. (I'll include pictures)

First off, by looking at the pics, do you think it's been a g relatively ood grow so far?

Then, if you could take part in answering the poll question.

Does this look 6 weeks into bloom? (started week 7) as I understand sativa bloom stage is longer. What do you advise regarding feeding schedule?

And finally, any suggestion and notes regarding what you see in the pics, harvest (if a second time is a good a idea), and drying/curing would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry for the long post, and thanks in advance to anyone who takes time and shares their experience and insight. :blsmoke:

Feed full strength bloom feeds but do not use the "Grow" component for now. Limit nitrogen . Make sure cal mag is given if it's not in the nutes. Cultivate the soil and aerate the roots.

Thanks, man.
The feed solution in the reservoir is aerated using an airstone+air pump, and the root area with an Airdome. I give her 1-4-3 G/M/B plus half a dosage the rest of the recommended additives (minus Rhino Skin) including a one time CalMag last week just to be on the safe side as some leaves were yellowing and I suspected cal deficiency.

The plant is very sensitivesensitive and N as I had to also dealdeal the the Nitrogen toxicity (the clawing of the leaves) too.
