Is it ok to cut off these dead leaves? I've never defoliated before and I'm not sure where I should be cutting from.

Absolutely. Cut from where the stem meets the base just try not to cut into the base. You can leave a little nubby if it puts your mind at ease.

Sure, remove those leave, or leave them and they will fall on their own, it does not really matter, as they wither they will come off with barely a touch.

Hello just press on the stems of the yellow leafs and they should just fall away clear any dead leafs away from top of pot as they can harbour bugs👍🏻

I've had a real issue with defoliation. Not really sure how much leaves to remove without causing harm to the plant. Where should I start and what is a good procedure to follow.

Should I do a pre harvest defoliation a week before harvest?
What are the benefits and consequences of defoliating a week before harvest? Is it good or bad? I have tons of foliage up top and need it to go away. It's too late in flower, but a week before will open up the canopy to the lower bud sites. Any and all help is welcome. Thanks!

Got my Bluelab EC/ppm meter in today! Once I had it calibrated I decided to test my tap water. It came out to 420ppm, I shit you not... God wants me to grow pot! Unfortunately this is also a little high as I decided to test my ppm with my nutes. Note: this water hasn't been left out to evaporate chlorine or anything. Using the Dual Fuel x Terpinator schedule

I've heard topping autos is ill-advised. Any advice on the topic? Should i just let this girl go on naturally or should i top her? I want to milk her for the best yield possible.

One of my plants has something going on with it. Cbd Tonic #1 has a couple bluish leafs, and some purplish red petioles most are still green. I think it may need some phosphorous or a micro nutrient. Also the two main top also has this weird wrinkle, other tops are a bit bluish

Has anyone tried growing in perlite? I know I'll need to monitor my nutes. I'm not seeing much difference than growing in co co except the co co seems to retain more moisture.

First hydro. Is there anything I'm forgetting about ppm, maintaining pH from the resevoir, keeping rot from growing (non-issue with hydroguard right?) , etc? I plan on something for light, and change the jar and nutes if needed. Will let the roots breathe at the top.Canna->Lucas.
