Thanks for the advice

Just wanted to double check with you guys before I make a big mistake lol

Is this the correct place to top? That's just above the 4th true node not counting the bottom leaves.

I waited til my lights came back on so I could top it but by then it had grown so much I ended up FIM ing it just above the 5th, see how it looks tomorrow IMG_20200525_190847.jpg

I haven't noticed much growth since the weekend, is it normal for growth to slow a little at this stage? The only difference I've noticed over the last 5-7 days is the amount of new pistils on the bud sites, it still looks healthy, maybe its just doing some behind the scenes growing? Any advice would be good as I'm feeling a little deflated at the min, cheers

Nice build mah man. Very clean work.

The plant is looking good. I can't offer much since I only do hydro but there are many factors that can slow growth which would take a lot of questions on your medium, nute regime, light cycle, water ppm/ph runoff, drainage, watering, environment conditions etc.

Topping/fiming does stress the plant but typically the plant will bounce back quickly which looks like you did that 2 weeks ago. Are the leaves showing any signs of discolor, wilt, tips up/down, curling, canoeing etc? No webs, white specs, holes in leafs etc? Plant looks good from pics. Did you flip to 12/12?

I have a sick plant guys I need your help!
When I first noticed it there was only about 3 leaves that were starting to show brown rusty spots (they look a lot worse under the light) , after a bit of googling it seemed as if it was a calcium deficiency so I got some cal mag, and after about 5 days it still doesn't seem to be any better, in fact I would say about 60% of the leaves are like this now. Can anyone help me or point me in the right direction?
