I attempted topping on both my Northern Lights, and My Girl Scout Cookies. The Northern Lights went just fine, but when topping the GSC I nicked one of the Lateral Branches. What should I do to fix it?

I’m notsure you’d be able to get anything on there it’s a pretty small plant. But if you ever break a larger branch tape works well.

Depending on how much you broke, you could also cut a match and use it as a splinter

I’d put some blue painters tape around the nicked branch. You should be able to take the tape off in about a week.

As you can see above I've got two Blue Dream Clones I'm Monster Cropping. My question is when should I top them? They are currently reveging( I'm not sure if this is a transitional phase, or the mark of true reveg). Should I wait for their first fan leaves to form? Or go for it?Week 4

Hi, It's my first grow and I need advice again. I have a small Orion F1 auto, she's flowering for 24 days (47 days old). I have these buds under scrog that don't get enough light and don't seem to grow fast enough. Do I remove them? Will it help or stun my plant at this stage? TY2y ago

Defoliate?Is it too late to give these girls a hair cut? I’ve heard you don’t want to do this in flower stage as it may shock the plant and eliminate necessary mobile nutrients stored in leaves. Also does anyone have tips on an easy way to do this with a scrog net or should I remove it ?Week 10

I am concerned at the large crack I found near the base of my plant. I have this plant tied down in several spots and I'm assuming that is what caused the cracks. Is there anything I can do or should do to to minimize the damage? It's been tied down for about 12 days now.Week 14

I have some date molasses which is 100% pure lying around the house, I am not worried about unwanted guest being attracted to it as my set up seems bug proof, as it has been throughout the entirety of this grow, would it be beneficial in any way if I were to add it in?Week 9

Defoliate a flowering auto?Hello! I am contemplating defoliation for my GSC auto which is just starting its 3rd week of flower. My concern is that the humidity may be too high, and there may be too little air flow due to the plant's healthy size. What are yall's opinions on this? Too stressful?
Thanks!Week 7
