Which plants to keep?
How do I choose which plants to keep in the tent? I’d like to keep 2 of the 4. The other 2 will go outdoor in 20 days. So might top again 2 the right have been growing thicker. Bushier, a bit bigger fan leaves. But a bit slower. 2 on the left skinnier, longer braches. A bit quick

I defoliated and removed lower, small, shaded bud sites during the first 3 days of flower. Was it a bad move considering the plant is bushy as heck and hasn’t stretched yet? Left about 25 « tops » (2 actual main colas) with some growth right underneath. Did I hurt my future yield

Spinosad and rain
I applied spinosad tonight and after I finished it started to rain. I used a drop of dawn as well. We even had unheard of tornado warnings. Will I need to reapply? Thanks everyone.

Should I cut the first leaves to maximize the grow
Hello everyone A friend told my that I should cut the first leaves of my plants (the first that came out from the plants, not the cotyledons) What do you think about this idea ? And can this really maximize the size of the future buds ? Thank you for your responses ! :)

Do outdoor plants not get the dark they need. Just wondering like street lights moon stars does that cause hardship the way a light leak can mess up a tent. Just wondering should be putting hoods on our outdoors too like a bird. Just wondering peoples take on that philosophy.

Will she make it?
So my lady has went downhill rapidly since the deficiency that started week 7, soil has also been compacted making it hard to water or break down dry amendments. Will she even be able to make it to harvest? buds look alright and smell decent.

To Defol or Not to Defol? That is the question.
Week 10 question for Wedding Glue. I know there is a lot of controversy over trimming autoflowers. Let's say it's semi safe. She's super bushy again. Should I do another defoliation? OR wait another few days? I'm worried about timing. I have very little left. Thanks all!

Is this plant a Male
Is this a Male? So all of my plants are in the flowering stage expect for one and they also look different. I thought they were a male a few weeks ago, but thought I was tripping and over thinking it, but now I'm not so sure. Thank you for any help.
