Trimming the leaves that block light to the lower bud sites is fine. In fact, most recommend it. I say go for it! 👍

Just wondering (bc I stunted this one early in flowering, noob) if it might be ready to harvest. I dont have a micro so I cant see the tris that well. Buds aren't that big but I did stunt an autoflower and I've heard it diminishes yields. I think its ready. Do yall?Week 8

Should I harvest or let her go?Should I let this girl go longer? It’s an autoflower but mostly the bottom hairs are still white, could I just top the top off and leave the bottom to mature longer? Buds have stayed the same for the most part in the last couple of weeks in terms of density. First grow!Buds. Not fattening

Hi everyone I had a question about placing a 4 bulb t4 shop light into my 4x4 tent, I already have a 400w hps but my one plant that I scrog'd is just so massive.
My main concern is that the different light spectrum might stretch my flower making the buds less dense?? should I be?Week 8

enlonged budsThe younger plant has developed flowers in an enlonged shape. The plant herself has grew a lot during her cycle (plant on the left day 72) and I can't understand the reason. Maybe some stress due to the hot temperature in the box during the veg (30ºC as peaks sometimes).Any idea?6y ago

Buds too small for week 4 of flowering?Hi guys, I just finished week 4 of flowering and I'm wondering if my plants look like they're smaller than others on GD. The buds are still starting to develop and are pretty small, they look like week 2 of flowering compared to other growers of the same strains. They are healthyWeek 11

Any input? Small nuggzzzzMoby dick Auto has been slow but steady on the bud growth, way slower than other genetics and this is the only plant from this strain so no comparison. I find the buds quite small, Super frosty, dense and beautiful smell but harvest is getting closer and nuggz aren't fattening upBuds. Not fattening

Burnt edges / yellowingWhat are all these burnt edges from? One of the burnt leaves is from the perimeter, so I'm not sure how it could be receiving enough light to burn. I also have a small amount of yellowing towards the bottom. That's normal during flowering if the low-light leaves die, right? Thx5y ago
