Can I just remove all these fan leaves now that th...
The8thChevronanswered grow question 4 years ago
The leaves are responsible for photosynthesis. Your plants are always better off the more leaves they hold onto. Only cut off a leaf if:
It's blocking light to bud sites
You need to open the plant up for airflow
The leaves themselves are getting no light so can't be productive
The leaves are sick and dying
As part of a whole other training method, like lollipopping
Otherwise, she's better off with the leaf.

First I like to try the tuck in method but if I have to remove them I take the ones that are covering any bud sites and the ones that are not getting any direct light or if they hang down wards remove them as well. Think of the fan leaves as solar panels they are the main producer of photosynthesis they convert all the starch into sugars so don't take all of them off.

They have a purpose, they are absorbing the light. That being said I take them off if they’re covering bud sites or to improve airflow.

Small EOL bananas, longer riping worth it?I've got some small bananas on my Euphoria from RQS (in my diary). I was close to harvest (probably in a few days). Do you think I can wait few more days for the trichomes to get more ripe without having to worry about pollination and microseeds? Just asking out of curiosity :)

Flushing with distilled water and citric acidHi guys! Decided to finish my diary (Pineapple Express), which I should have finished a little earlier.
The question is as follows. I decided to flush with distilled water and citric acid. Is this ok or not a very good idea?
Thanks!Week 13

About NutrientsHello, there are two issues I'm curious about. First of all, does A.N Revive benefit the plant during the transplant process? 👽
My other question is, do you prefer Carboload or Budcandy? Is there any extra benefit to using both together? 🙌Week 2

Soil problemsSo I have switched my grow medium to soil and perlite from Bat-special. I give my plants 2L of water every 4 days but the soil never holds the water as all of it comes out the bottom. is this normal? there is so much runoff. 2L of water shouldn't be pouring out a 25L pot.
