Defoliation soon after Supercropping
bigbud1080started grow question 5y ago
I am thinking of defoliating my Blue Cheese. I supercropped it about a week ago and the growth is powering. I want to do some defoliation but I am unsure if it is necessary, or if it is too soon after supercropping.

Defoliation, my friend, is needed to prevent high humidity and let other plants be enlightened. Otherwise it is just harming in vain.

My seedling in the red solo cup was knocked over and fell out! I immediately picked it back up and replanted it in the cup. I also added more soil and watered it soon after. Is there anything else I should do or is this seedling dead? Btw there was no physical damage to the plantWeek 1

Do you think I need to change my watering? I has 3 plants in a 30 gallon tub of super soil. One was male and I cut it out after it showed sex about week 5 from seed. Should I stay on the same time schedule and less water or less frequently? It will be interesting .Week 4

Any tips would be appreciated she’s untopped, low budget grow but seems to be holding its own, I spend a lot of time tucking leaves and re arranging branches to get more light to the lower nodes. Didn’t know what to expect as this is my first grow. Very fast strain to flower!Week 5

Ok so I'm new. On disability so flat broke. What can I feed her? I changed to a big fat 400w bulb. After giving the roots a good chance to grow on an 18/6 schedule, I've topped the 6th node. Pruned the first 2 nodes off...were weak. I gave her 2 days to recover now 24 lightWeek 4
