Mainlining defoliation
HueyBrownstarted grow question 4 years ago
I switched to flowering 2 days ago. On the defoliation side of the training, when there are grow tips that are growing from an under node, do i keep them or do i remove them? I don't want any larfy buds and i want the plant to focus into the 8 mainlined colas

Yes you can defoliate and prune up to about 3 weeks into flower.
I Usually leaf strip then about 20 days in I'll prune all the larfy weak nodes underneath. This focuses all the light on top of the plant giving you some sexy buds with no popcorn buds underneath. I learnt this the hard way lol check my diary if you need any help . I mainline

Back building budsHey guys anyone ever tried back building buds? I tried it late in my last grow on one cola and the cola solidified; ie. more dense but not bigger I think I was a bit late. I’m almost 3 weeks in right now, would now be a perfect time?
Thanks!

Is it normal for bud sites to develop this low to the base?Buds growing very close to base.Never seen this before and I only caught it because I was removing the crumbling bottom leafs that haven’t gotten light in two weeks. These aren’t where normal popcorn buds grow, is this a strain thing? They will not get any light, should I remove?

Yield EstimationHi growers!
Estimation needed on what I can expect per plant from my super skunk. They're in Week 9 of Veg, 38cm tall, mainlined for 8 colas. I want to switch them to 12/12 next week.
What can I expect as yield per plant and how is it gonna change if I wait a week longer?

I want YOUR opinions on MY training <3 :)Hey people, this is not an important question, I just want to hear everyones opinion on the training I did today (supercropping, LST and defoliation). Does it look good in your eyes, was it too much, not enough or maybe too early / too late? And what should I do next? Thanks :)))

Should I defoliate at this stage?Dear growers, since it's my first growth, I'm unsure if I defoliate to make more "branches", but don't know exactly how and when to do it.
Information on internet are very contradictory, and I cannot ask any friend. What do you think? The plant to me looks healtyWeek 4

YieldThis is my first grow. My hand is in the picture for size reference. I believe it is starting to flower. This grow is being done in a trashcan and is a micro grow. Does anyone have any idea what kind of yield I will get? Or if there is anything i can do to maximize the yield?

No sign of flowering, see close up picturesGirls are looking really good but no sign of flowering. It has been 40 days from germination, please see close up pictures in week 5.
I learned from other websites that 12-12 light schedule could be used to initiate flowering.
Any suggestion?

When to start the bloom additives?Thanks for your help. Should I begin to give bloom fertilizer now. Since I added some worm casings to my soil every time I add nitrogen base it causes her to suffer. I believe I gave to much to nitrogen this way. Water and cal/mag she loves.Week 5
