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.

Do you guys add flowering nutrients right after preflower?
personally i don't count the first 14 days as flowering
So what is the right way?
Right after preflower?
or
Week 5 after 12/12 (so 14 days preflower + 3 weeks into flower)
Always wondering how others do itWeek 7

Hey guys, the Atami guide is telling me to switch to Tera Max & Atazyme after week 2. Before that I was using Rootfast & Tera Leaves. Should I switch back to the old feeding schedule or proceed with atami's guide? Also, I want to LST but I'm not really sure when to start. Thank uWeek 3

Big leaves keep or not?Question for all the growers in here.
When I can cut those big fan leaves on my plant? According that this is an acceptable procedure.
My plant is still in veg with around 11 nodes.
It seems that those big leaves put in shade the side shoots, should I remove them or not?Techniques. Defoliation

Since autos have a finite timeline is it better to just let it grow as much as possible and get as big as possible or have the most bud sites when its starts to flower?
I'm doing my first grow and started a Critical Thunder auto amongst my others. Not knowing anything about autosWeek 6
