No I wouldn't, she's still stretching. No need to pull them off unless they're blocking flower sites or dying. 👍🌱

I have read online that this strain White Fire Og need more Nitrogen then other strains. During veg fase it was easy to solve this just added extra grow feeding and its getting that extra Nitrogen. But now in flower fase how should I solve the N. And what ratio can I mix feeding?

Removing of Big Leafs in Flower Phase ????
Does it make sense to remove large leaves in the flowering phase to give the plant the opportunity to send more energy into the flowers or should you leave the larger leaves on because the plant also photosynthesises through them.

Hi everyone hope you are doing well. Should I just trim some of the fan leaves so the nodes can get proper light or should I leave the leaves as is? I have noticed that I am working a bit rough with her and wondered if it would be kinder to just remove some of the extra foliage.

Can the color of your nutrients cause the roots to be dyed. My MicroGro nutrient is dark red and the older roots are colored a light red. More roots continue to grow and the roots which haven't started touching the water in my hydro system are still bright white (see photo).

Could anyone answer me If I should cut underdeveloped buds that are not receiving much light in order to switch energy to the more developed ones? I've heard this should be avoided but I'm just wondering. Thanks!
