, I use 600w HID (HpS, mh) and a small LED for spectrum. Light meter just gives me an idea what the canopy is getting.

Anything free, probably won't work. Best option is to buy an actual lux meter, instead of using your phone. They're like 30$ or something, so won't make you starve.

Hallo Welche Teile sollte ich abschneiden um ein gutes lollipop hinzubekommen. Den Damen wird es zu warm und die Blätter liegen übereinander und schwitzen. Deshalb habe ich heute das Netz installiert und versuche jetzt noch mehr Platz zu machen. Ich hab schon jeden Tag 10-12 cuts

flowering fem lollipopping?
First week flowering, should cut away the less exposed sprouts? Branch in pic 1 is almost totally hidden and you can see it being much smaller. Also not sure about cutting the two tiny sprouts in pic 2, there are many similar to those in other branches.

Is Revegging worth it?
Take a close look at the plant in the back left. This plant has had a heck of a journey. She was harvested back in December from some bagweed seed. If i had to guess its a kush strain. I think I will get more out of her this time around.. Cannabisius

Can I leave my plant growing in this 90 degree angle after accidentally snapping her stem?
Can I leave my plant growing like this? I can either set her back up completely or leave it at a about 90 degree angle if that doesn’t kill her off! Would give the rest more light. I accidentally snapped her but not completely. (Sorry couldn’t update my previous question)
