4/7/2020 - Letting the coco dry out a bit more between watering. Still feeding with 3.5g/gal MC, 1g/gal sweet candy, 2.5 mL/gal calmag, and pH adjusted to 5.9-6.2 ish. Plants seem happy and are putting on more growth. The tent is starting the smell slightly skunky and gassy when opened. Finally installed the 3D printed fan bracket to get some oscillating airflow. The subreddit where I found someone to 3d print the fan bracket: reddit.com/r/3dprintmything The thingaverse link for the 3d printed grow tent fan bracket: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4236270 4/9/2020 - Lots of growth this week. I did some very light defoliation, just a few fan leaves per plant. Mainly leaves that were covering bud sites near the top, and a few leaves close to the coco coir. Also did a small amount of LST on each and the usual leaf tucking every day. 4/12/2020 - Just normal light leaf tucking the past few days. I am happy overall with the cola spacing but the plants are really really bushy. I have a fan oscillating on them now but I am thinking I might need to defoliate a little to help with airflow once the cola's start growing.

Any suggestions for my LST and leaf tucking so far (3/28 and 3/31)? Should I do any defoliation?

Your lst is looking great. I would normally recommend removing a few leaves but I see that your plant is having a little issue right now so I would focus on correcting that before doing any defoliation. The yellowing in between the veins is a sign of magnesium deficiency but I see you are feeding calmag so I suspect you are getting a lockout from overwatering. I would make sure you have adequate drainage and let the pots dry out pretty well in between waterings. This will allow your roots to get more oxygen and let them absorb nutrients more efficiently. Once you get this fixed then you can start removing some leaves to let the plant get better light. Good luck!

These autos have grown a lot recently (on day 35 today) and are getting pretty bushy. Will this bushiness cause airflow/mold problems? I have a small oscillating fan blowing above the plants part of the day Should I defoliate anything at this point? Leave it alone?

Hi @Lavos They are very dense. You can defoliate one or another leaf from the main branch that is covering or shading the shoots. Defoliation several times and starts in small quantities so the plant does not stress. good luck mate 👍

@mr_h_kovert, im running 20/4 with humidifier so rh min 45 or more sometimes. I just increased the light height and fed them
mr_h_kovert
mr_h_kovert
@GYOweed, ok, it sounds as though you're running a 24/0 light schedule - this imo will always accelerate / magnify any deficiencies as you need to up the feed to account for a]. using led and b]. running 24/0. my suggestion is to give them 4 hours of rest a day and don't flick the bloom switch until they have recovered otherwise you'll be constantly chasing the issue as oppose to addressing it.

Congratulations on the new baby. She looks good at first. Choose a good variety. For a treat. Keep doing what you are doing and ask the growing ganja gods to protect your women until the growth is over.

I would let it focus on bud production. You could take out the smaller side shoots

I also learned this about modern leds especially with reflectors they more powerful than they look. Im soiless mix mostly and i use fabric stays very cool so increased temp to 78f cal mag helped me too always 1tsp/gal and has enough N for flower.

Did you ever turn your light back to full power? If so, when? I’m interested to know the happy place for your light and the time periods and heights you found worked best for each stage of growth of your plants. I’m currently running the exact same setup and starting my first grow too, so I would love if you shed some light? (No pun intended) haha.

@Fuzzbird, I did eventually turn them back up to stock power (206w) at around day 30. I think my next grow I'll start out at about 80% power and raise the lights a bit. Saw some minor light stress but nothing too bad. This is what I saw recommended for lux values: Seedling 5000-15000, Establishment (as they get their first true fan leaves) 20-25k, Veg 25-30k, Early flower/stretch 35k, Flower 45k+ Good luck on your first grow!
