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.

How far out to harvest for Glueberry Auto
Anybody have experience growing Glueberry Auto that can lend some advice on how this grow has gone and how far out from harvest I am? Most trich’s are clear still. Can’t help but think I’ve underperformed for some reason. First grow so no frame of reference. Thanks.

Yellow Cotyledons?
NLxBB was born with yellow cotyledons. The shell was stuck after sprouting so I had to help remove it. Took around 2 days before I saw them barely open with new growth. The new growth is green and seems healthy. Is there any reason why this is happening?

Algae growing in water reservoir
Tonight I discovered the beginning stages of algae growing at the bottom of the water bucket I kept within the tent. As far as I know, the bucket was clean around a week ago when I filled it up last. With both plants getting this water for a few days, should I be concerned?

Looking for clarification on the Flush time required for a RDWC grow? I have read this can be as little as 2 days of just plain water but should this also include CalMag if I am RO water? I assume the standard root rot treatment continues? i.e. OxyPlus, HydroGuard, Phytoff?Thanks

Mistura de nutrientes AJUDA
Boa noite. A minha duvida e a seguinte, eu posso misturar nutrientes na mesma rega ? Exemplo: Um garrafão de 5 Litros, posso adicionar BLOOM + Calmag ? Eu normalmente faco a mistura no garrafão e so depois divido por uma garrafa menor e faço a rega.
