I will go a step further.... At no stage in the plants development except very early will removing one leaf make any difference

If the seed supplier says "flower 9 weeks" and everything I read suggests 60 days in flower, are they referring to 60-63 days past switching to 12/12 lighting or are they suggesting 60-63 days beyond the first visible bud, or hairs, or what? IC a mix of amber, cloud, and clear.

Why is the Tonic Ryder so much smaller than the GG#4 even though i started them on the same day in the same earth? Is it a function of the different genetics or am I screwing up?

Defoliation late in flower on Auto's
I like to defoilate, If I were to pick majority of the fan leaves off of these plants being Auto's, will they react or stress too much? I like to defoil near the end of flower to really push all the focus to the budsites. Happy Growing!

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!

The GH label states that the nutrient solition should be changed weekly. That seems excessive. How can one tell that it's time to change the solution or just add to it?

Has anyone had any grow complications due to a light? I don’t want the problem to be the light I have taken a precaution. But if it comes to it I’d rather order a new one that’s not like this as it’s the first time I’ve seen orange and yellow added? Am I over thinking it?

I’ve been watering with rain water collected from my water butt in the garden. What’s people’s thoughts on rainwater as opposed to tap water? Mother nature’s water seems like a good idea to me?
