Finally i see flowering signs, so now i start counting the flowering weeks officially...
Paradise Seeds says around 65 days, so that countdown starts now...
Got them back from lots of deficiencies and accidents, but happily they seem to be extremely healthy now, growing quick and strong...
Have lots of hopes on this run, my first one with cloth pots and a dehumidifier at hand for flowering...
Im just aiming for under 60% RH for now, will try to lower it more in a few weeks...
Lots of rain and humidity here lately, but the coldest days of the year are coming soon...
Im really happy right now with the grow, the plants smell great when you touch them, look strong and beautiful, and they are things are going well for now...
Hopefully my new neighbor don't have a problem with the inevitable flowering smells to come...
My FoxFarm Trio is about to die and i don't have anything at hand to really replace it, so i will be on the look for some nutes soon...
For some reason, water out of the tap lately is around 6.4 to 6.8 PH, amd that always is welcome.

Hello growers, hope you are all doing great!
I have a question about defoliating:
What and how much?
I know the theory, big fan leaves blocking light for lower bid sites, but how much is too much?
Could i take like half of the fan leaves today, and another big amount next week?
If I’m going to do it.. which after more and more experience, I do much less than I used to.. but if I’m going to do it I do it around day 21 of flower.
At that point, most your stretching and veg growth is done so you have a good sense of the final structure of the plant. Taking half of the fans is way too much IMO - tho there are exceptions to the rule. I’d say go for like 15-25% max.
That said, you’ll hear all types of arguments on here as to what is the right way to go with defoliation.. just trust your gut as far as what makes sense to you.. and see how that works out. Adjust next grow according to your results here.
Cannabis cultivation culture is so full of misinformation and myth.. again, trust your gut and learn from experience.
@paradiseseeds, so, I waited until yesterday to chop them, they sure got more mature and they stayed mold free and smelling great...
Last night and half of today, they stayed hanging inside the tent at 85% RH and i was pretty sure that i was going to be throwing flowers in the trash soon, but by some miracle, dumb luck or whatever, i found that the dehumidifier wasn't broken, it just went into some children safety mode that kept it from starting...
So now they are drying at 60% RH, safe from mold and everything looks great, will post more pics and stuff soon!
Thanks, Paradise Seeds, for making your genetics available in Colombia, it's always a pleasure to deal with your seeds 💪💪💪🙏🙏🙏
@esotaro, it's a local Colombian brand SustraMed... Looks like it needs a lot of ammendments for flowering, but aeration/drainage have been amazing so far... Need to get the microorganisms going asap
