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.

I was using 3-4 fertilizers a week and I was washing with pH adjustment from time to time. I entered the 3rd week of flowering and I have 7 types of fertilizers per week. If I give my fertilizers with 0.75 liters of water every day, will there be salt accumulation in the soil? If

Humidity too low, any ways getting 60% without a humidifier?
I am struggling to get my humidity high enough as it keeps trying to fall to 30-40% and I'd like it to be above 60% - any good tips how to do this and how much it will affect the plant? Laundry hanging near tent gives ~10%+, I've also tried misting some water every few hours.

Green on top soil
Yesterday I added a dehumidifier and c02 bag, I stopped exhausting and keeping humidity under 73 and lowest 68. Today I noticed a bit of green on my soil. I’m thinking of letting them dry out a bit maybe I’m watering too much. What can cause this green to come up on the top soil?

When should I transition my plant to flowering?
As it is my first time growing I am unsure when to start transitioning to flowering. When should I start switching my plant to flowering? Should I let it grow a bit more leaves? Is there a specific way you can check when to transition according to the plant? Just updated my diary📔

Power outage
My power went out before my lights came on, delaying their power-on time 2 hours. I’m currently in my second week of flower; should I let the lights shut off at the normal time (giving only 10 hours of light for today) or should I adjust the time to account for the 2 hours?
