How much/little should I prune?

MediciGradestarted grow question 5y ago

I’ve read a lot of conflicting opinions these last few days regarding defoliation/plucking/pruning. Today is day 21 of 12/12 and my only goal is to prevent white powdery mildew. How many leaves would you take off? RH overnight spikes into the high 70’s if the dehumidifier is off

Привет, бро! 👋 Я бы снял с нижнего этажа все большие развитые листья, со второго этажа я снял бы половину от имеющихся развитых листьев, этаж верхний с соцветиями я бы не рекомендовал дефолиировать! В общем я представил около 30-50 больших веерных листьев, но совсем оставлять лысой - не стоит! 👌 От души! 😇 Удачи! 👍

Just installed my first scrog, planning on flowering in about 2-3 weeks. Looking tips on how to train the best. Should my screen be higher so plants grow into it more or do I want to force horizontal growth and then pull through openings?

My growing experience is mainly with autoflowers and when it comes to breeders estimated flowering time for photo plants, when does it begin? If a breeder estimates 8 weeks, is that from 12/12 flip or from the appearance of flowers?

The last figure shows the topping plan i'd pick for this round, but i didn't manage to grow my plants this way. Better luck next time! Only now i want to know, can anyone point me to a diary that shows a plant that actually is topped that way? Thank you very much. 😏

Gents/Ladies, Anyone got any ideas with what I should do with the cola that has stunted growth due to the stem being half broken? I managed to top it, just about... Was thinking if it doesn't decide to grow anymore in a weeks time, I could top the one next to it again?

Howzit, So I am going to attempt to graft an arm onto my one plant, seeing that I mainlined two great stems and like an inattentive fool broke one off. My question: Anyone done this before and have any pointers for me? Not sure what the likeliness of this working is.
