Defoliate dead leaves during early flowering?
Burmeseanswered grow question 4 years ago
Hi there, You should only defoliate if there is a good reason.Like do some defoliation to lower down tent humidity,to make a good air flow if too bushy.Defoliate some leaves If they are damaged or shaded below the canopy.May be some lollipopping if there are too many pop corn buds underneath.Other than those, I wouldn’t do.Happy growing... ✌️

Hi,
Personally, I remove those leaves. The plant is using the sugars from the dying leaf as food so some people leave them on. I prefer to have increased air flow and light penetration as I am not worried about the plants getting enough food. They always have acess to nutrients and can make the sugars when they need.
Hope this helps,

One plant (the one on the right) is going yellow, with brown mottling on the leaves. Both plants have been treated exactly the same.
I’m giving the plant some calmag and extra nutrition after flushing it (which had no effect). Any ideas to save this plant? Worried…

Too much light or PH imbalance?I dont know, something strange about the color, the spots on the leaves maybe? suggestions accepted. Maybe I need to add a fan ASAP, or let more air into the tent?
Dimmer is sset to 20% 25% , maybe I should give more light? or maybe less?

Seedling Light-burn or ToxicityHi growers!
Is this Light Burn, or nutrient toxicity from nutrient dense soil?
2 Mars Hydro TS600 lights at 27" from seedling.
PH 6.3 misting soil - RH is 75-80%. - Temp is 77F
No light meter, so I estimate PPFD is in acceptable range despite using 2 lights in 2x2 tent.

Yellow leaf tipsHello,
I think I have a slight over-fertilisation.
Could someone have a look at this. And could someone explain to me in this context whether and how bad it is that the water does not flow through when watering. I have never had water under the pot.
