DaveGstarted grow question 5 years ago
Hello. I need your Opinion please. Because i always had a too high EC-value with my grows, i tested a completely new soil (Biomixx light), flushed the soil without any plant - and what a surprise: EC was 2.5! This is much too high for cannabis-grow, isn't it? I'm really confused

Biobizz uses organic fertiliser to prefertilise the soil.Organic fertiliser have a very high ec ( bigger parts than synthtic fertliser). You know what i mean=?Biobizz soil is a great soil to start a seedling , i never had issues. Its just the bigger Parts of the organic content that makes a high EC.
I personally dont use a ec meter in soil.
If i start a new fertiliser i dont know, i start with 25 percent of the recommended amount, then i add more if plant reacts well. And i only use fertiliser if plant shows adefiency.Biobizz soil is prefertilised so you need no fertiliser for minimum 4-5 weeks.
High Ec is in that medium no problem .
What may get a problem is to keep a automatic plant in a small pot
I start all my automatics after germination in a final pot filled with a nice prefertilised soil ( like biobizz)

Northern Lights Auto, quite short and bushy, fan leaves shielding light - should I defoliate?First time grower with a quite short Northern Lights Auto in week 6. The fan leaves seem to shield a lot of light from the inner leaves, also touching ground. Should I trim the fan leaves? Or should I keep them, since it already seems stressed enough for it's short life…

So many leaves! Should I defoliate even more?I defoliated just before and even during the first week of flowering, but she keeps growing so many leaves even during the second week of flowering.
Should I defoliate right now or wait a couple of weeks? I worry I could halt the flowering or cause even more useless stress...

Currently I defoliate selectively every 2-3 days, so only single leaves maybe 10-20 total of 3 plants

Remove leaves from auto?Should I remove fan leaves from my auto flower? I wonder since it is so crowded, I worry a bit that the leaves are pressing against the buds. But maybe that isn't a problem? I've read that removing leaves is unnecessary and stressful for the plant.

Defoliation late in flower on Auto'sI like to defoilate, If I were to pick majority of the fan leaves off of these plants being Auto's, will they react or stress too much? I like to defoil near the end of flower to really push all the focus to the budsites. Happy Growing!2 months ago

Did I remove too much growth?Did I cut too much? She was getting so bushy that there was water puddling on the leaves.
She’s in very early stage of flowering and didn’t plan on cutting again but she’s growing like crazy.

Autoflower defoliation questionDid some defoliation at the bottoms of the plants to help lower humidity, did I do enough or do too much? Also should I trim some of the skinny branches and pinch out popcorn buds? I will wait until next week to do that if I do so they can recover from the defoliation

He visto un vídeo donde hablan de defoliación y poda de bajo luego de pasar las plantas a 12/12, he leido que una vez se coloca las plantas a florecer nono debería; ahora mismo tengo unas plantas que llevan 5 días que las pase a 12/12 y tengo debajo de la malla unas ramas que no llevan luz y en la parte de arriba unas hojas muy grandes que paran el paso de la luz, puedo defoliar y hacer poda de bajos al 7mo dia?

Defoliation. Yes or No?Want to hear some other opinions on defoliation of fan leaves. Do y'all defoliate or no? Everything I have ever learned about plants tells me not to defoliate. Why would you cut off the plants solar panels that absorb the light and store nutrients to drive photosynthesis?
