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.

Is it time to harvest? Everything I have looked at online on this strain puts 12 weeks at the max and it just completed 13 full weeks.

Do you remove small "buds" when doing defoliation?
When doing defoliation, are you removing these small "buds" (see pictures) that are not getting enough light?

Not sure about this, I dont think this plant is flowering but it was supposed to be an autoflower. Might have to move this outside as I'm running out of room inside and I think it will not be able to get harvested.

I would like help with Mainlining. The stems are very thick, should i try to wait for them to get a few inches above my cut and maybe become more flexible and pliable to bend horizontal and make my second cut, (2 > 4 colas) or try bending now? I'll add photos

flowering fem lollipopping?
First week flowering, should cut away the less exposed sprouts? Branch in pic 1 is almost totally hidden and you can see it being much smaller. Also not sure about cutting the two tiny sprouts in pic 2, there are many similar to those in other branches.

Is superscrogging in the beginning of the flowertime (1st week) (very) bad for the plants? They grew to high and I had no other chance to get them more away from the LED light. I‘ve had burned flower (like an albino)

Looking for good recipes/methods for making CBD Oils and Capsules. Any tips or advice would be appreciated. Anyone using a Herbal Infuser? Do you think its a good idea to decarboxylate? Any recommended base oils or empty capsules? Looking for as much feedback as possible. Thanks

Currently I am watering in the evening. Is it better to water in the morning? I get the sun hitting the plants at 8am so I’m always concerned if I water in the morning the sun will cause some damage.

I’m doing DWC buckets. I’m 5 weeks into veg and need to top up the water occasionally. Should I be pumping the old water out every so often and putting new solution in, or do you guys just keep topping with ph’d nute water? If you do swap out the water, what’s your procedure?
