When should I think about flipping these? They are just getting tall enough to be tucked under the screen. I was hoping to give it another week to let the small one catch up a bit seeing as it's 5 days younger than the rest.

Is it common to have a pheno every once and a while that totally defies the strain defining characteristics? A 'Throw Back', I guess?

Remove leafs(defoliation) and new shoots?
After 7weeks and 3days of vegetation. And some LST. Should I remove the large leaves and the new shoots that are coming off the branch from each topbud? (For the purpose of entering more light and those "topbuds" reach the correct level)

Hi guys and girls! Tell me how you plant. I doubt that the leaves are wrong. #1 can see light spots. In daylight there is no such thing, Only under the LED it can be seen. NAMASTE 🙏

I've chopped the plants, big one is whole plant and small one in branches. Is my 6" roof fan (seen week one) on "low" (1/3) enough ventilation if they're both hanging in the tent? I've turned off my circulation fan, should I put it on low underneath the buds? Humidity ~55

Has anyone ever heard of a strain that gets stuck on Cloudy Trichs? I'm just a few days past the proposed harvest date yet, 1 & 1/2 weeks ago I noticed 10% Trichs turned amber but, all the rest seem stuck on cloudy. 95% of the pistols have turned red, fan leaves are dying/dead

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?

Hi guys! The problem is, in general, the plant in the growing box has grown so much that from the lamp to the top of 1.5 cm, the temperature there is quite high, will it somehow affect the plant? And how can I fix this if I have 5 weeks and this is main-lining with the main trunk

Defoliation in flower
I did a defoliation before flip to flower, but im at the end of week 2 and did an aggressive lollipop over the past 3 days because I wasnt seeing good growth below the very top of the plants, and im wondering if this is too much stress going into week 3 flower Thanks!

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

Ive noticed that during winter I only need to water the plants once a week or so. Is that OK for a SpaceBucket with a ufo led? What's better? several small waterings or a big one once a week? Im using 1,25L a week, should I try to break that quantity to 2 waterings?
