Basementgrow05started grow question 4y ago
What do you guys think about removing the 2 top leaves too give the lower branches some more light too come out? Would this be bad for the plant or would it be fine ? I’ve already removed the 2 first leaves that first sprouted on the plant and it didn’t seem like it affected it

There’s no need to remove that leaf. There are absolutely situations where you would want to remove that leaf but it will be in flower/late flower and you’re not there yet. It’s not blocking anything important atm and your lower canopy won’t suffer as a result. Good luck

I would! As long as you don't take more than 25% of the total foliage at a time, you shouldn't have issues.

You can always try tucking the leaf under. Be careful removing too many leaves, it can slow your growth and you will have a longer veg period.

In veg I wouldn't remove anything untill your about ready to flip it to flower. All you would do by defoliation now is slow the growth of the plant. 🤘😤

I'm wondering what light to get - I have a small tent (same as https://growdiaries.com/diaries/21875-first-time-blueberry-autoflower)
At the moment they're in the house
When they start to smell the tent is going to have to go in the garage where it gets pretty cold

Seem to be having overwatering issues - moving forward I’ll definitely wait a little longer before adding more water, but anything that I can do at this point to try and improve things? Or is it just a wait it out scenario? Any insight would be appreciated.Week 5

What do you think how much longer for the Quick One, around 2, 3 weeks? I was thinking of feeding her one more time in the next couple of days and then start to flush. Do you have any guesses on the yield of Quick One?
Also curious to what that deficiency is showing on the leavesWeek 9

I was rotating the plants, a little ocd action and accidentally supper cropped a cola. Seems to be doing ok and not worried about it.
My question is this ok to do deliberately in flower and increase yeild or should it be avoided after a certain amount of weeks into flower?Week 11

Cut or keep topped branches? (1st day of flower)I have 2 budsites on my plants that I needed to top due to dying growth (either from windburn or trellis net). Both are on thick stems & pass the trellis net. It is now the first day of flower, should I cut these stems back or let them grow out? Maybe cut the one that is “sick”?
