Hello @JohnB! No harm ! Just a bit more light and a richer spectrum ! Happy growing ! 👊

Yeah you can ! The more light the better the yield will be . Just remember to adjust the lamp height accordingly to prevent light burn :) -Happy Growing!

Of course you can, the more light the better. Just be sure to put it at the right distance: too far and it will not help at all.

Are these flowers good to harvest? The Auto Dark Purple Kush plants are on time, maybe a little late. They've flushed for one day so far and will give them two more days. Keeping them in the dark 24/7 with the final flush at 45% humidity. Thanks for the help?Week 10

I was moving the plant and it fell on the floor. Luckly I catch it in mid fall, so the plant hadn't got any damage, but a lot of soil finished on the colas. I tried to clean them but they remain a bit dirty, because they are very sticky. How can I clean them?Week 8

Defoliated 2 fan leaves - pre flowering! :(I've just removed 2 big fan leaves that were potential light blockers.
I've just read that defoliating when flowering can stress the plant and reduce yield.
The first pistels have appeared in the last few days and I only removed two leaves.
Is it likely I've ruined it?Techniques. Defoliation

I've turned up the QB watts to 180 and now my temperature is at 25.9 and humidity at 37%. I don't want to use my humidifier because it's hard to keep it under 60%
I've also read lower humidity is okay and works better with higher temps.
I guess the question is Watts up or down?Week 4

Flowering Defoliation QuestionHey All,
I have been pulling the small leaves out of the buds when they get long enough to pluck from their stem, so I dont damage the buds. In order to open up more light to the actual buds, should I put a pair scissors to these leaves? Or leave tops bushy?Week 8

Defoliate?Should I defoliate? As you can see in the pics, only the very top two nodes are growing fans, but it is getting crowded up on the canopy. The growth in the middle is from bottom branches that didn't stretch all the way up to the canopy, might use those for edible extraction.Week 12
