I have been experiencing some high temps (peak 29c in tent) I can't control. I have very good ventilation and my PH, nutrients, etc, are all good. My foliage is lightening to a more yellow-green, does it look like a heat stress problem or just normal old age (day 50 auto)?

Would a combination of giving my plant too much nitrogen and water during flowering make it smell like wet grass?

Defoliate or not ?
Do I need to defoliate her harder ? I Think some of the buds are blocking the sun out of others, I am afraid the buds won't be fat. I am also afraid if I defoliate wrongly she could lose a lot of photosynthesis. What do you guys think ? I should try to lst her down a lot more

Defoliación cuándo aplicar?
From which week can defoliation start to be applied? Should it be done closer to flowering, or can it be done in the middle of the vegetative stage? Thanks in advance.

Any ideas what is causing some pistils to turn brown and crisp on my lower bud sites? Especially the ones in the middle of the crater. Taller bud sites not affected, and leaves are healthy.

Defoliate? Auto Week2 flower high humidity
I’m struggling to keep relative humidity below 65%-70%. Should I defoliate some lower fan leaves to help with this? Will doing so hurt overall yield? I’m at beginning of week 2 of flower. Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated.

Defoliate?
Is it too late to give these girls a hair cut? I’ve heard you don’t want to do this in flower stage as it may shock the plant and eliminate necessary mobile nutrients stored in leaves. Also does anyone have tips on an easy way to do this with a scrog net or should I remove it ?

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 :)))

I'm using LEDs for the first time and the humidity in the garden is often around 20-30%. Does anyone know a way to correct this. At the moment i just do foliar spay, but I'm not in the garden regularly.

Week 7 SCROG vs Defoliation question
I'm in the middle of week 6 of flower, both strains are expected to finish at 8 or 9 weeks. Plants are crowded. Buds aren't as big as I was expecting. I'm not sure if I should leave the SCROG canopy to boost the crowns, or defoliate to get more light to the lower bud sites.

Hi growers! Should I change my light schedule for my plants when they come to flowering period? Now I have grow-LEDs (300W) at 18 hr/day and daylight-LEDs (120W) at 24 hr/day. Plants start to get bushy and start dwarfling - i'm concerned I have too much light on them.
