Can safely snip at least 5 or 6 of the big, top leaves.. leaving the little ones to grow out again :)

What does a guy have to do to get grow diaries to put a great project up as recommended?! My question what is the highest you’ve ever had your PPM? Mine are at week 5 and getting their natural fade and no matter what I throw at them. Right now at 5000 ppm and strong with no burn.

There are several tops that are lower down than the main tops. Should I remove any of these, since they won't get as much light?

How often can foliar feeding be applied to cannabis plants? For example- Plagron Alga Grow can also be applied as foliar spray, this specific nutrient is 100% organic and can be used witch each watering , so can be it also applied as foliar spray daily? Thank you in advance

Should I remove these leaves? Only the ones with the worst signs of the Deficiency?
Basically I’m going throw a calcium deficiency in week 7 of flower, feel like I’ve already fixed the issue by flushing with pH balanced water and reading the right nutes to the medium. Overall should I trim these fan leaves with deficiencies? And does my plant look good?

So I am currently on day 28 of flower and seeing no new signs of deficiencies. I’m running the Sensi bloom schedule at half strength 800ppm. Should I up my feed if my plants aren’t showing signs of deficiencies or will not do anything and just cause salt buildup?

If I buy a cool mist humidifier for my grow room, will it decrease my indoor temp and increase my RH? Also, with a duct fan sucking up the air out of my grow room, how effective will it be? Unless I slow the air flow down. Thanks!

Do you consider the moment you plant that seed as starting of week one or do you wait till the seedling breaks thru and start week one there?
