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.

Could I move an outdoor plant into a garage if temps drop significantly outside? I understand bugs are a concern moving an outdoor plant inside, but wondered if a garage with lighting would be a viable option (and anything else I should consider if I move her)

When do you heavy defoliate your Autoflower? She's filled my grow box with some stretch yet, and wondering if I can hack some of the branches/leaves that will never see light. If so, what is your sweet spot in a 12 week strain?

Why does this site use g/w/plant vs gram/watt. It makes measuring multiple plants under a light look brutal. For example: G/w/p = 0.1 G/w = 0.864 Or the calculation should be (gram total÷plant total) ÷ (watt÷plant total) That way if you enter 1 or 9 the outcome is the same

Clearly she's heavily stunted, yet she is showing some good signs of strong production at the bud sites. Any thoughts on what could have been the actual reason it's stunted/dwarfed? Did I potentially over-train? Funky seed? Transplant issues? Have a look through the weeks, lmk!

At which stage of flowering should i change to a bloom fertilizer? Currently "flowering" period has just started 2 days ago and it will need about 7-8 weeks until to be ready for harvest. At which stage of flowering is nitrogen not needed at all anymore?

Hi! 😏 Since i'm new here, my first and formost question is a safety matter. Are growers email-adresses inside this websites database encrypted while stored? So that if there would be a cyber attack of some sorts, they could not be ending up in the wrong hands. Great site, thanks

I'm thinking about topping my Dr. Grinspoon in order to keep her in a short height from 60cm. But im worrying about the time she needs to recover from topping, which is important time for her very long flowering period. What would you recommend? Topping or any tips on better LST?

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.

When using LED lighting that has the options for both Flower and Veg. I am currently in the second week of flower and have my 400W HPS and my "1500 W" LED light on and the LED is only selected for Flower. My question is, would it hurt, help or no affect if I turned Veg on too?

Looking for lollipopping advice
How and when to properly do lollipopping? Is it a single or a multiple day process, what would cause less stress? I wanted to do it on more than one day, try a slow process, just remove from bottom to top whatever won't get enough light, any suggestions?
