My last week was a little late, this is week 8, and week 2 of flowering. Bud sites are starting to form nicely, my ladies are still stretching, especially the gelato! Must be over a meter tall now! Did another feed today, again only feeding once a week, nutes have plateu'd now, everything still looks lush an green. Think the only problem I have at the minute is getting to the plants at the back of the tent, which are still really bushy, departing on putting something underneath some plants, to stagger them better, as alot of the foliage is now starting to cover other plants and/or business, will give it another week and do another de leaf, I'll just take the ones that are shading the bud sites. Starting to get the classic greenery aroma when I'm in amongst the plants, smells B E A UTIFUL. So another week done, lots more height on the sativas, bud sites are forming nicely. Thanks for reading Peace

Different for everyone. At 4 weeks mine are close to going into flower. All depends how much room you have for the plants to stretch.

How much do you water? And how do you know that its enough? Do you wait until you see run off?

I see you grow in soil with BioBizz, so you don't have to do run off every time to avoid salt buildup. I usually water a bit lighter in the beginning, at that size I would probably give a liter every 2-3 days (when top 5cm of soil is dry). Once they're larger/ in flower, I simply water to slight run off, so usually around 10% of soil volume - for example for 15L pot 1,5L. I also grow in soil with BioBizz so you can have a look at some of my diaries for more precise reference, some have dates/amounts in the weekly notes.

Defoliating plants? When do you guys generally start stripping back leaves? And are they worth keeping at vegging stage? Just for context, very light LST, so no lollipoping etc. Cheers
Solved
Leaves. Too many
Techniques. Defoliation

I usually do it twice during a grow. Once just before flipping the plants, this is mostly to improve airflow in my tent because I trim lower branches as well. I then do a second round about 3 weeks into flowering, this time to ensure the growing tips where the heads are forming are exposed to light. As for your question, its stressful for the plants, so you should only do it when there is a reason for it, the only benefit to doing in the veg stage is to improve the airflow.

What I know about defoliating 1) not every plant needs it 2) not every plant LIKES it lol Also on a more educated side , it takes a plant about 3 weeks in flower to actually switch to flower mode , so around 21-28 days of flower is the second defoli. What your trying to do is expose bud sites , there is also a hormone called auxins , when you defoli your increasing thah aswell. Here was my go to site when I started . https://www.growweedeasy.com/defoliation
