Defoliation

I would say no. Plants need the leaves to supply energy for your girl. When you have a lot of leaves you can remove one blocking some light but for now if you want another spot to have more light, just tuck that leaf down. Cheers

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? đWeek 6

Over the next several weeks...What should I expect to see, regarding the fan and sugar leaves. Do the nutes in the leaves get consumed for flower production? I don't want to freak out over any change in appearance. I plan on only using pH'd water till harvest. Thanks 4 the adviceWeek 5

Should I defoliate or not? Stunted autoBasically at the end of week 3 of flower. Question is, to defoliate or not to defoliate? Sheâs stunted by about 2 weeks already and I donât think sheâs going to stretch anymore⌠would she benefit from a light defoliation? A heavy one? Or would it be better to avoid it altogether?

Should I have trimmed the Bush?More than normal I have noticed a large amount of second growth at the base of the plant, im wondering if this is caused by adding new soil during flower? Or if this is normal? Also should I have just cut it off as it grew, seems to be a waste of energy as they won't get light.

I am running a 65 litre buppleponic & dwc system with flora series nutrients.
My question is, at what stage should I consider flushing the plant to reduce nutrient uptake before harvest? I have read anything from 1 week to 3 days. Thanks in advance.Week 8

This is my first DWC cannabis grow and I'm not really sure how long to flush her for. Next week my plan is to change the water and PH it to 5.5 and obviously add no nutrients. I have read that with DWC you don't need to flush as long so I was thinking of waiting 1 full week?Week 13

Weitere Pflege und TrainingThe leaf mass is increasing more and more. What can or should I cut off? Can I still continue with LST and guide the shoots in the "right" direction? When should I start using the flowering nutrients? Thank you all for your answers. I love this community!
