You can defoliate without much worry up until the third week of flower.. after that i'd stop until your about to harvest.. Just make sure you have a reason is it covering a bud site and you can't tuck it down and away? then cut it! Happy growing!

Yes of course. Especially in veg state. Just stay away from the leaves near the bud sites.

Brix Content
Has anyone ever tested the Brix content of their plants? My focus on the grow is to increase pectin and Brix levels by pumping calcium into the plant. Just interested in some figures for cannabis plants.

Select what's wrong with my White Widow!
-Over/under watering? I use a meter and the "knuckle" method, as well as pot weight to determine if it's time for watering.- -Heat stress (temps 77-81 AM; 64-70 PM)? -Nutrient Burn (Fed them 1/29 when I shouldn't have) -Calcium deficiency? -The plant looks fine, chill out

Hermaphrodites or bananas?
Finished week 5 of flowering- just wondering if anyone sees signs of herming or bananas. A plant hermed next to these, so I'm hoping i caught it early enough, before it got a chance to drop any pollen. The first 4 pics are of 1 plant, the last 2 pics are of a different plant.

Worried about some clear trichomes before harvest with some amber and mostly cloudy.
I am going to try to do a partial harvest with the top buds because the lower nodes are definitely not looking ready yet. It looks like there are mostly cloud with some amber but I am worried about the amount of clear trichomes I am still seeing. Does this look ready for harvest?

Am I within the chop window?
Currently on day 75 of this meph sour stomper. I feel like today is chop day, am I right ? I see mostly cloudy/amber on the calyxes and the leaves are discoloring - despite me not stopping the feed - which seems to indicate she's grabbing all the food she can and near done.
