Just tuck leaves in for now, the last 2 weeks you can remove what you want. Cheers

Bigger stardawg hermed so I took the male bananas and put them in a bag because I know they contain pollen. What would be the best actions to take to just play around. If I backcross the pollen to the same strain will I create S1 seeds?

When do you stop LSTing autos? I have some white pistils and have read that is when you should stop, do you agree? I uploaded one pic to this week of my grow.

Defoiliation on an auto strain
Hi guys, newbie here. I've been reading a bit about defoliation. Should I consider defoiling on an auto? If so what leaves should I eliminate? And when is a good time to remove the leaves? ✌️🥦

Now at 19 days to harvest our best looking CP has a brown section. No webbing so I don't think it's mites. Should I cut out that section? What do you think is the problem?

Can anyone with experience growing Blueberry confirm the best curing time for taste? I believe a strain like Blueberry benefits from longer cures of a few months or more. I will attempt to give it aslong as possible but it would be nice to hear from experience.

Defoliation soon after Supercropping
I am thinking of defoliating my Blue Cheese. I supercropped it about a week ago and the growth is powering. I want to do some defoliation but I am unsure if it is necessary, or if it is too soon after supercropping.

Now I’m familiar with using Rockwool cubes and air pruning roots in cubes but well I don’t know if it’s me being impatient but the roots don’t seem to be taking to the Rockwool cube. Now I’m thinking they have transplant shock from being put under 600w light or transplant to cube

Okay, she’s compact with tight inter nodal spacing - I’m thinking of fluxing this lady! I’m nervous because I don’t want to stunt her, but feeling brave. Any advice or tips? I’ll consider mainlining instead!
