TimTheTerpManstarted grow question 6y ago

Hey guys! Just about ready to really chop it to the girls! They are just so bushy! I'd appreciate some suggestions or advice on lollipoping them and how much I should defoliate off them! Thanks in advance for all your guys help! Glad I'm not going through this alone! Cheers!

Hi! When you lollipop you can take 1/3 of the lowest parts and maybe some of the biggest leaves too. But don't stress them too much so that they won't shock!

What would be the most efficient light for a single plant indoor grow? My hope is to have one plant sustained through winter months and outdoor grow each summer. I've been to a number of sites and advice varies, so I thought I'd ask here as well. Thanks in advance.

First hydro. Is there anything I'm forgetting about ppm, maintaining pH from the resevoir, keeping rot from growing (non-issue with hydroguard right?) , etc? I plan on something for light, and change the jar and nutes if needed. Will let the roots breathe at the top.Canna->Lucas.

I’m doing an early harvest of 2 plants. I wanted to dry the buds in the tent, with the remaining 5 plants, as I don’t have any other air conditioned location in the house. There is a dark space above the lights. 25c & 45% RH atm. Is it a viable idea? Or should I just never do it?

The temperatures where I am living are increasing weekly and average around 35C currently. What steps can I take to preserve the terpenes of my harvest during drying? I will be using an air conditioner in my room to keep the temperatures around 20-23C, will this be enough?
