started grow question 8y ago
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.

Why would my PH level jump from 5.6-5.8 to 7+ in a 24 hour period? I leave for 2 days every weekend so no one to tend to my plants. I don't want to deal with a lock out.

Scrog Defoliation during flowering - how hard to go?
I'm going into 4th week of flower, and I'm fairly sure they're done stretching now, and have filled the screen nicely. How much should I be defoliating at this point? Should I take just leaves, or also small budsites under the canopy? Critical xxl on left, OG Kush on the right.

Bananas are forming on the top of my buds. I am aiming for 50% cloudy 50% amber. Should I pluck the bananas off? Let them be? How would anyone else go about this?

I want to do some controlled pollination but prevent pollen from blowing to other branches while doing it. Anybody ever tried mixing pollen with water and pouring that water over the buds. I also wonder if it could be frozen in this form if it works.

What do you do when one of your Autos flowered super early on one side, and is now fish tailing like a mofo? You’ll see the pics where one aide looks really matured and I’m starting to see some amber trichomes.. But you’ll see on the other side, she looks great and is growing.

3 days from completing 12 weeks. The Top Cola looks ready with all pistils Amber & curled. However, lot of Popcorn buds still blooming. Should I wait for the harvest and let the Popcorn buds bloom longer. Will that affect the Top Bud ? Any pro tips for harvesting in a closet?

Defoliate?
Just repotted my baby after learning she may have too much nitrogen. Should I trim all the damaged leaves or should I wait until the plant gets stronger? Also, when will the stem become thicker? Is there something I can do?
