i would break up the defoliation up in the week before flower a little and a week after a little, your plant is going into flower and you want to help keep her stress levels low. so break it up and you will be fine

You can do a little first 2 weeks into flower, remove what you want the last 2 weeks. Cheers

More defoliation?
More defoliation? I’ve done some pretty serious (to me anyhow) defoliation to this beautiful lady and would like a more experienced eye to let me know if I should stop? Thanks to lots of great advice from here she’s already looking much better.

I'm going to take cuttings for clones soon. If you check the pics you should see that the taller of the 2 plants has a "Y" where the main stem split. I'm thinking cutting at the bottom of the Y would give me a good cutting/clone. Any thoughts or advice welcome... Thanks!

Weird things
Spotted this ONLY in pre-flower calyxes. Checked for male parts thinking it self-pollinated but found nothing. Anyone understand this?

Do I need to trim more?
Do I need to trim more? This is my first successful attempt, 2nd grow ever. First was a disaster (this one too, almost.) I am petrified that I trimmed too much. But - when I see others plants, I'm questioning if I actually need to do more. Thank you in advance!

This is the second time some bird is damaging my plant. Some pigeon has uprooted the seedling. I noticed it hours later in the night. Root was almost intact, it was just uprooted and left there. I have replanted her now. Will she recover?? How to deal with birds in outdoor grow?

today I checked the soil on her, the top layer has that dry color, but underneath it has a darker color, but it doesn't feel wet. Honestly, it feels the same as when I was only giving 2-3 oz as opposed to the 2 cups yesterday. Is the soil considered moist still? vid above.

I am going to transition to using GH Flora series for my base nutrients, but I am not sure how much I should bother with their suppliments. Besides CalMag which I am adding, has anyone had good results with their bloom boosters, liquid silica, etc? Or is it a waste of money?

Trimming Fan Leaves in Flower
Debating trimming the leaves but I don't want to stress the plant if I don't need to. I'd like more light penetration to hit the subcolas coming off the mains. the fan leaves themselves are still healthy

Hi all, who has grown and attempted HST on Fastberry by Fastbuds before? I'm worried I'm about a week behind schedule and she's not going to have time to veg out before flowering hits! Should I be worried? I don't have loads of room anyway!
