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.

Whats up everybody! I'm interested in your favorite automatic indoor watering system. I want something that can do top watering drain-to-waste in not too long of a time span - no slow continuous drips (no blumat etc). Any ideas welcome, prefer DIY! Even water distribution is keyWeek 4

•what do you think is the better method over all , personally I find a scrog net very restricting for maintainace and often still have to use supports for the chunky bud . Kane’s are good for weight and light but don’t offer much room for guiding growth?Week 5

Defoliation HELPHi,
Hope your all well
If I'm to do defoliation in the 3rd week of flower but my plants didn't grow at all in the first week due to cold temps, do I still do the defoliation in the 3rd week or leave it till the 4th week?
Any advice will be much appreciated

Sativa Defoliation in Flower?How, when, or should I defoliate this Alice Nicole sativa in flower? She's a mess, and could use better light penetration and airflow. What leaves to remove? Most seem to be attached to a bud site. This is my first sativa and ScrOG grow, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks🙏Week 13

My grow tent is about 2 1/4 feet x 4 x 6 ft . I use an inline exhaust fan on a cycle timer. 400 watt . I have HEPA filters mounted on the little windows for clean passive air- no intake fan.
To keep the RH up and temp down can anyone recommend a cycle time for the exhaust fan?Week 5

Cut or keep topped branches? (1st day of flower)I have 2 budsites on my plants that I needed to top due to dying growth (either from windburn or trellis net). Both are on thick stems & pass the trellis net. It is now the first day of flower, should I cut these stems back or let them grow out? Maybe cut the one that is “sick”?5y ago

Defoliation (no horizontal room in my tent and a lot of vertical room)This may seem like a dumb question but is cutting these small lower branches off going to promote vertical growth in my plants? I will be doing it later on anyways to eliminate larf but would it be more beneficial now or is it worth to keep to take in light energy for nowTechniques. Defoliation

According to the trichromes I'm guessing there's more than 2 weeks remaining before harvest. I'm looking for all cloudy with some amber trichromes and the majority of them are still clear with slightly cloudy.
Anyone able to give me a more accurate timeline? 1 week? 2 weeks? 3?Week 18
