answered grow question 7y ago
Go a bit away with it and move it everytime a bit closer till the plant shows negative reactions. I never used a Mars Hydro but i would suggest a distance about 30cm (+/- 5cm). I would start with 40cm and move it slowly closer👍

To prune or not to prune?
I've been getting mixed opinions on pruning at this stage. Should I remove the bottom most baby leaves of my plant? This is Day 21 of an Auto. Should I be removing the most bottom set of fan leaves? Should I wait? Should I leave em? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

When is a cloned plant from cuttings considered a plant, the day of cutting/trimming, or the first sighting of roots in plugs, or in my case, from the transplant date, approximately 10-13 days (good roots) to get to the first transplant stage to 4" pots with soil?

Its spring coming into summer and humid in my area. Since my tent is in the garage, my conditions are controlled by outside conditions. Any home remedies for bringing down the humidity besides just buying a bigger humidifier?

Defoliation Advice
Should I start pulling the leaves at the bottom that are yellowing/dying? I've read that first time growers shouldn't attempt defoliation on the first grow.

I live in a terraced house facing East so my front windows get the am sunshine and my garden and rear windows get the pm. When she is old enough I will move her into the greenhouse and she will get about 4/5 hours of direct sunlight. Is this sufficient for an autoflower?

How do you guys quickly battle gnats naturally if you’ve came across them? I was thinking about letting my top medium dry out then mist the surface with a water/organic neem oil and then cover the top with sand and diatomaceous Earth

😀This is my 1st time at growing Autos. I've done photo period's before. I'm growing in big air pots with soil and using the Bio Biz range & Cal Mag. I see most of you guys use many different combinations of nute's. Any tips would be really appreciated. Sauce

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?

Please see April 3rd photo and weekly update comment. Considering snipping the lowest 2 growth tips early in an effort to focus more energy higher up the plant. This is an auto specific question and I will be doing lst regardless. All thoughts welcome👊
