Posted are pics of my first grow using bag seed that appears to be Indica dominant. They are in soil and in a grow room with a Mars Hydro T1000. Ventilating is good and I'm in my 4th week of flowering. I have been on a Rollercoaster ride and started with 8 plants. 5 males and 2 died. I have transplanted twice and flushed due to my many mistakes, over watering, bad lighting, and over feeding.. these two have made it and I want to optimize the bud size. I didn't SCROG or do LST but did top one and fern the other. I just started feeding again in week two of flowering to allow the plants to stabilize for a total of about 8 weeks in veg. I'm following the 7th week of the fox farm feeding schedule along with cal-mag plus. I was nervous about feeding caused the nute burn was bad so I'm lucky these two made it. Is there anything else I should do??? Should I remove some of the colas to allow more energy to the bigger buds?? Is the feeding I'm using okay...? Pics attached.... thanks to everyone that responds...

I wouldn’t recommend removing any budding branches receiving light. Just go with it. The ff nute schedule is kinda hot IMO. Do you alternate feedings w straight water? If not, you def should. Try to keep it simple. You would be surprised how much residual food sticks in the soil after a feeding. If in doubt go lighter on the food.

Plants look good...be careful following the FF feeding schedule it's too much...use half the recommended dose...I used FF for a long time...the only thing you would want to remove at this point would be large fan leaves if they're blocking bud sites from light...but ur plants look fine as is

Thanks so much for the reply.... Yes I do alternate the feedings with straight water. I will cut back on the feeding and make sure the buds are all getting light... Thanks....
