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 have recently seen other growers partially harvest their plants. I understand the theory behind it, the lower buds get a chance to mature and bulk up. I am looking for growers that have experience in this and whether it is worth it and how you went about doing it.

How much time do I have left before I can harvest these ladies? Today is day 42 of flowering and according to Sensi, the flowering time is 45-50 days. Tomorrow I am going to start week 11 and I am wondering if I should start flushing the ladies or feed them for few more days.

enaught defoliation?
Would you guys still defoliate? If not because its enaught leafs taken off Or because its too late in flower? Just talking about big leafs which block some light from other buds.. Im not sure if its better to just let them alone for rest of flower or if its still beneficial...🙌

I have not been using CO2 but EVERY book I read recommends using it, I’m not prepared to go out and buy a CO2 tank, regulator, etc… at this time. Has anyone ever used one of those CO2 bags? Or do you have any DIY CO2 solutions you can recommend?

I've basically thrown all training out the window. I am not doing much more than just letting it grow. The tent really needs more lighting but that isn't going to happen this grow. I presume that flowering will begin within the week. What do I need to be doing right now?

My buds don't appear to have many pistils as they get fatter, shouldn't there be more visible pistils at this point?

Defoliate?
I'm debating doing some defoliation. Is the growth of this plant bushy enough to benefit from it? Newbie here.

Defoliation during early flowering
I wonder whether trimming the lower (big) leaves would be beneficial? Because they’re all shaded now but maybe they participate in the transpiration process at night?

The latest photos show the growths in Bruce Banner that look like hermaphrodite eggs. Do you think this is eggs or am I wrong? Would you destroy the plant at this point or break off the eggs and continue to observe? For good, I must destroy the plant. But there is still weak hope

Hi all! It's my first time germinating , and I'm going to use jiffies . I ll be transposing these to 7 gallon fabric pots. I want these ladies to really root in and get comfy so my question is : can I hydrate the jiffies with a CANNA Rhizotonic solution to sort of promote growth?

I've noticed my plant is pretty low to the ground like a cabbage. I started the germinated seed a knuckle deep in the soil. Now its starting to grow big but not too much upward. My lights over 2 feet above, 230 watt LEC. Is there a method to grow it taller.It is indica dominant.
