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👍🏻

Defoliation (no horizontal room in my tent and a lot of vertical room)This may seem like a dumb question but is cutting these small lower branches off going to promote vertical growth in my plants? I will be doing it later on anyways to eliminate larf but would it be more beneficial now or is it worth to keep to take in light energy for nowTechniques. Defoliation

I’m currently at week 7 flower, using biobizz nutes, and wondering when I should be flushing? People say a week?
Problem is my GDP clone looks a little further along, and I’m struggling to see the trichomes with my cheap loupe. I’m worried I’m already in the harvest window :(Week 12

Thanks!Week 1

Harvest questions.Hello, I wanted to know if these look like they are ready for harvest or should I wait. The say it's ready when the pistels are milky white and amber but some of them aren't fully developed. Do I wait till those develop or when the majority are mature? Thanks in advance! 8wks oldBuds.

Pruning lower growthI read that in maximizing yield you trim off the lowest two set of branches. I am growing my plant horizontally to accumulate more budsites without the use of topping until I have the desired amount of branches. Is it safe to remove the lower two sets of branches?Week 3

Is it normal for a plant to start preflowering 3 days after flipping to 12/12? Or have I hermied them? The plants had a 4 week veg, and a little topping. I also had a male in the tent in the last grow, but cleaned the tent thoroughly. Do you think pollen could still be there? 😀Week 6

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.Week 1

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
