Defoliating is like removing a lung wing from an athlete and expecting him to set a new world record.
I would only use it as a last resort if the leaves are blocking airflow, making it easier for mold etc.

Hey,
Yes you can defoliate. You’ve already done some LST, great job!
You now can see what growth has been exposed and what growth is going to be shaded out.
Clip off anything that’s not fully exposed the light and your basically going to get the lady to shoot into a growth spurt, allowing you to tie out wider and tie down the lower growth as it catches up.
Happy growing :)!

You can definitely defoliate at this age, but your plants look pretty open with nice light penetration. Not much blockages from what i can see.
But if you're wanting to "top" or do some other defoliation training methods your definitely a good age.

Is this a Male?Hey growers out there,
all my plants already have white hairs, the TP1 doesn't have any yet. It also looks a little strange and I'm a little worried that it could be a male. What do you think? 😰

New growth looking strange and growth slowed down (wilting?)The new growth of my plants are looking a bit strange, and growth seems to be slowed down.
Could this be that the light is too strong? Or can this happen if the humidity is too low?
I already installed an humidifier but looks like its not helping.
Whats going on?

Will this tape repair a broken stem?Should I re-wrap this broken stem? Bent with too much pressure and there was a snap, though not completely severed. I applied two or three layers of duct tape, not sure if the constant pull of ties will allow it to heal and repair. When should I take the tape off?

Plant Topped Itself at 3rd node? Stress or mutation/morphology?This plant split into two shoot apical meristems at 3rd node, I think? Is this due to stress, or a plant morphology/mutation? Pic 1 = weeks before pic 2. Pic 2 = 3rd node & 2 stems. Pic 3 = strain name.

How tall will they grow to be?How tall will these outdoor untrained, soil based photoperiod plants grow to be (best rough guess)?
I believe they're a sativa-dominant Sour strain (either Ultra Sour or S.A.G.E and Sour bag-seed).
Currently over 1 meter tall from soil at 60 days old in 7 Gallon pot.

Fall RecoveryHow is the seedling looking? She took a fall yesterday afternoon and I immediately rescued her as I could and repotted into final 3 gallon fabric pot (actually 5 gallon but only had enough Coco Loco for 3 gallons). Thank you for the read, happy growing and learning. :)

Gorilla Cookies Auto - But Purple?About 2-3 days ago my Fast Buds Gorilla Cookies Plant developed some purple pistol hairs (photo). However Gorilla Cookies shouldn't be a purple plant, except for the leaves? Is this normal, a rare genetic mutation or did I get a wrong seed?
