I did a pretty major trimming tonight. All downward branches, (There were still a few) lower fan leaves, and most inward leaves.
Before and after photos.

Good Day Growers
I did a pretty good trimming last night and after 12 hours they are pretty full again. Removing the large bottom fan leaves makes it much easier to water. I am about 9 days out from flipping. During the last week I will be letting the branches grow upward. When they get to about 12" I'll probably flip.

Thanks Baked Sometimes I think it's a little too much.
Thank you Websissy.
Thanks MG. I am hoping to get a stretch of 2 to 3 times starting height.
I think this also makes a case for the air pots. They are forcing the root zone ramification to happen which is then enabling more vigor up top! You give them a haircut and it forces the roots to get stronger enabling more vigor on top. I'm loving this loop!

Happy Sunday
No real news today. I'll probably pin back the branches again tonight. Hopefully the last time so I can just let them grow a bit. Finishing up week 4 of Veg.

The plants are about 6" tall which is right where I want them at this stage. Another 6" to go.
The water intake is increasing so I may go to two waterings a day. Each had 800ml with minimal runoff. Less than 10%. Both are still dripping so not sure of exact amount.
Very disturbing. As I was checking the runoff all the power from the power strip went off. Looks like I'll be replacing that after they go into darkness.

Update:
I tied down all the branches (except the two from the cutting mishap) to the sides of the pot this evening. No more outward growing and time to start growing upwards.

Take off a few of the inner pointing leaves covering the new branches to allow more light in. Besides that just keep working it out towards the edge of the container. I was trimming and strapping down almost daily.I don't know where to begin with this one she's so thick any suggestions

Happy Monday Growers
I can't believe that it's already 4 weeks in Veg and 6 weeks since I started. The combination of the @Weed Seeds Express GSC seeds, the Demon LED from @Budget LED and the Nutrients from @Prescription Blend have been really great so far. My plan was 5 weeks in Veg which looks to be really close.
Last night I did my last LST by strapping down the main 4 branches of each plant. For plant #2; the branch that had one of the four heads accidentally cut off still has two branches moving towards the edge. They are lagging so I may just let them grow upwards.
From this point forward I will focus on the upward progress of all the branches. When I get to 12" I will flip to keep them below 36" tall after stretching.
Each plant is getting 800 ml of nutrients each morning.
