Defoliation and are they doing well?
HecticJardinstarted grow question 5y ago
Day #31
I took big fans leaves off from the bottom that weren't getting any or much light and some near the top covering some bud sights.
I will start using fish mix & topmax when they arrive.
What distance should I have the light from canopy and when should defoliate again?

Hard to say, since every light is different. A good rule of thumb is 12 inches (30 cm) away. As for defoliating, once it starts get overcrowded with leaves you can start thinking to take a few leaves again.

Leaf density, defoliation, nutes, genetics, just healthy?My plants are very leafy compared to most I see. how can I expect bud production to unfold? Currently I move clusters away from each other. I twist off a leaf or two here and there to allow for light penetration. Is this my genetics? nutrient set? just really healthy?

Pruning to minimize aphids during flower, yes or no?I think I have aphids on one of my plants, and lots of vegetative growth so I’m thinking of doing a little pruning.Is this a good idea during flower? Any tips on HOW I should prune? I was generally scared of pruning throughout the grow, I don’t know what to leave and what to clip

Got my Bluelab EC/ppm meter in today! Once I had it calibrated I decided to test my tap water. It came out to 420ppm, I shit you not... God wants me to grow pot! Unfortunately this is also a little high as I decided to test my ppm with my nutes. Note: this water hasn't been left out to evaporate chlorine or anything. Using the Dual Fuel x Terpinator schedule found here: https://mygreenplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Dual-Fuel-Terp-Feed-Chart.pdf I took 1 Litre of tap water, and added the nutes for week 3 -2ml Dual Fuel 1 and 2 (I dont have Vitathrive, totally forgot it at the grow store despite writing a list.) Well my ppms shot to almost double of the recommended amount of 850pmm. I am really starting to see why many people struggle with Ntox, etc if they dont use a ppm meter and account for what is in the actual water! To combat this I will probably lug 5 gals water from the grocery store until I splurge on an RO system. Maybe even a cheap Brita faucet filter might bring it down? Tell me what you think!Week 1

When a breeder quotes an estimated range for yield what assumptions do the make:
1. Is the quoted yield based on wet or dry weight
2. Is the range based on standard growth or do the high end numbers typically assume advanced training techniques, supplemental lighting etc.Week 5
