Seems about enough, altho u could afford to lose that one on the bottom, but u can leave it a sort of buffer, if she has a deficiency of macronutrients she will pull em from that leave and others.

How much lower foliage should I remove?
How much if any foliage or stray branches should I remove from the bottom of this plant? She's super healthy so I don't think it will be an issue with stress, but I don't want any undue stress. Should I just leave it? I'd like to avoid popcorn buds all together.

Its spring coming into summer and humid in my area. Since my tent is in the garage, my conditions are controlled by outside conditions. Any home remedies for bringing down the humidity besides just buying a bigger humidifier?

I set a fan blowing towards the plant. I uploaded a video showing the intensity its receiving. I want to know if that's too much air or is it OK for the plant to shake like that?

Are humidity domes a good idea for seedlings? Usually, before using the dome, I had almost 100% germination and with the dome I'm losing 60% of my seeds to damping off, mold issues or sometimes seeds dont even sprout. Dome at 78f and 75% humidity under 2 2ft t5 6400k

When to switch to 12/12? The plants are about 10 to 15 cm (4-6inch) I know they gonna explode when going into flowering, but I have not a lot of space. The lights can go up for another 35 cm (14inch). Thinking about waiting when they are 20 cm (7.8inch). What do you think?

Has anyone every tried having regular live ground worms in their pots while growing your plants? We use worm dropping in our soil so why not have live worms?

Should I defoliate light-blocking leaves from my NL auto?
My NL auto is at D40 and is growing well. She's developing a good lot of cola's with nice bud sites. Up untill now I've been able to tuck the leaves away, but it's getting more difficult to keep all bud sites cleared as she keeps growing. Should I tactically defoliate?

Im planning on my final defoliation to be on Day 21 flower. Should I remove every fan leaf/any leaf not directly attached to the bud or is that too much? How do some of you go about your final defoliation?

Everyday defoliation. Is this correct?
i'm making a scrog with 4 royal gorilla q they were topped twice. Usually I take 3 to 4 fan leaves from each plant a day, cut with scissors to prevent them from shading budsites. I do this every day. Is this correct or am I stressing the plant? they started blooming this week

Found seeds developing on my sapphire og closest to the entrance of the room. Looked over the plants multiple times, and no bananas on any of the plants. Now is there any other way a plant can self pollinate or has some male pollen wandered into my room?

would like to know why the stem of my plants go up very quickly without getting fat. I respected the temperature, the humidity, the ph, the soil, the distance of the lamps (40cm) etcetc. It is due to a lack or excesses of something or it is normal? I posted more photos to see

The only question I have is : would you top them once early + LST or let them grow naturally +LST. i will have 4 plants in a 4x4x6 I want to maximize yield. they seem very healthy and growing fast.
