Kiewil1started grow question 5 years ago

Is it normal for a plant to start preflowering 3 days after flipping to 12/12? Or have I hermied them? The plants had a 4 week veg, and a little topping. I also had a male in the tent in the last grow, but cleaned the tent thoroughly. Do you think pollen could still be there? 😀

Hey there kiewl, Pollen won't have affect the plants, not yet anyway so it's not that. Second, there's plenty of 4 week veg plants out there, especially when folks do 12/12 from seed. It took three days after the flip to show pre flowers so it may take a few more days even a couple weeks to get into flower earnestly . Nothing to worry about , it's probably just a healthy plant about to get huge ! Hope this helps.! 🚀

hi, well its strain related, when they flip to flower. My Bruce Banner needed nearly 3 weeks and an extra Timeout darkness for 24 hours to start.

It's not that unusual, some strains just flower early, although preflowers appear when the plant is sexually mature, ergo ready to reproduce, not that it will make buds right away

So many leaves! Should I defoliate even more?I defoliated just before and even during the first week of flowering, but she keeps growing so many leaves even during the second week of flowering. Should I defoliate right now or wait a couple of weeks? I worry I could halt the flowering or cause even more useless stress...

Remove leaves from auto?Should I remove fan leaves from my auto flower? I wonder since it is so crowded, I worry a bit that the leaves are pressing against the buds. But maybe that isn't a problem? I've read that removing leaves is unnecessary and stressful for the plant.

Defoliation late in flower on Auto's I like to defoilate, If I were to pick majority of the fan leaves off of these plants being Auto's, will they react or stress too much? I like to defoil near the end of flower to really push all the focus to the budsites. Happy Growing!

Late defoliation?I didn't pay as much attention to defoliation during veg stage as I would have liked, instead I kind of picked leaves out here and there all through flowering. Should I have left it altogether after missing timing or as long as you don't cause too much stress it should be OK?

Defoliation?Day 21 of flower, do I need to do any further defoliation? Everything looks connected to a bud site so I'm apprehensive about removing anything else. Afraid of running into PM at some point as weather gets warmer and RH rises. At 45-55rh now. May get a small dehumidifier soon.

Looking for pruning/defoliating tips I have several tented plants under 12 hour light and I am looking for pruning/defoliating tips. Pics attached. For one, should I take out some select fan leaves to let more light down?? Lots of branches, too, maybe prune some smaller ones? Thanks for your help! John D.
