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👍🏻

Autoflower defoliation questionDid some defoliation at the bottoms of the plants to help lower humidity, did I do enough or do too much? Also should I trim some of the skinny branches and pinch out popcorn buds? I will wait until next week to do that if I do so they can recover from the defoliationWeek 6

Heavy train on autosWhat do you guys think about my diarys last vid. Had autos and did heavy training on them, just to see how they react later on and di they survive stress. ( Accidentally super cropped one main branch)
Do you think they are lost cause or will they bloom to their full potential?4y ago

Too late to train?Just discovered this is not an autoflower and I should have topped, stress trained or tried some techniques to reduce height and increase yield. Is it too late now? Should I at least defoliate? Would you recommend I replant in a bigger pot? (dont want it to grow anymore)5y ago

It is the 7th week.
They appear generally healthy, but is it too early to try lollipoping?

Hi fellow growers! Light question. Using a 600w LED with veg and flower switches. I’ve been using both spectrums since starting flower as I figured 600w full spectrum is better than 300w just flower?
Is this okay? I’d prefer to use as much wattage as possible to maximise yields.Week 11

so I accidentally re-vegged some plants, I had my timer set incorrect, I am curious what I should expect...I swapped them back to 12/12 immediately after I noticed. I believe my timer was messed up from about week 2 to 4, will they still mature but just take a few extra weeks?Week 14
