To defoliate or not?
RollinRickstarted grow question 6y ago
So after I mildly cooked the plants - some of the fan leaves have shrivelled. Is it worth snipping them off or just letting them do their thing?

Hello
So it doesn't really look too bad. I would remove the few dry curly burnt ones and leave it. At least it'll open up some more light penetration and the leaves don't work as well when they're damaged anyways, so really they're just in the way now. It only looks like maybe 4 leaves to be removed on the one plant which shouldn't stress it negatively.
Happy growing.

Wilting leaves and copper spots? Save Me!These copper spots started appearing around 2021-01-28, and the wilting leaves started 2021-01-29. The newest additions to the environment were the much stronger MarsHydro 300w light. I've had to water more often because it dries out pretty quick with the rampant heat. what next?

Overwatering or underwatering or other cause?It's very hot in Rome (30+ degrees) and was away for a week. Got a friend to water mid-way. She gave quite a lot, 700ml. Came back after 3 days, plant was fine. Watered again and after 2 days, leaves dark and wilted. Put in direct sunlight, left for 3 days. Leaves died.

Is this Bud-Rot Symptoms?Is this beginning of Botrytis (Bud-Rot)? Noticed white discoloration on the attached leaves with black dots. I'm thinking it's the beginning of bud-rot. I've been battling outdoor high humidity so this makes sense, Buds are totally fine atm. Should I harvest now? Milky Trichs

Wilting leavesOk, first real issue. The plant today is starting to wilt considerably and the lower leaves have started to turn yellowish green. I just watered it this morning and it’s looking worse than it did earlier. What could be causing this? I haven’t started feeding yet. Soil depleted?

I'm almost positive I've been overwatering but what do I do now lol? How do I get my plants to perk up? Do I wait it out? I've also brought my light down 2 and a half feet due to stretching.
