Defoliate a flowering auto?
Hello! I am contemplating defoliation for my GSC auto which is just starting its 3rd week of flower. My concern is that the humidity may be too high, and there may be too little air flow due to the plant's healthy size. What are yall's opinions on this? Too stressful? Thanks!

Hey everyone. I’m having a little trouble keeping humidity up now that I’m in flower. Does anyone know how to keep the humidity in a tent up during flower without misting? Really don’t want to risk mold

I have some date molasses which is 100% pure lying around the house, I am not worried about unwanted guest being attracted to it as my set up seems bug proof, as it has been throughout the entirety of this grow, would it be beneficial in any way if I were to add it in?

How much / often should I be defoliating?
Currently on my 2nd grow. How often should I be defoliating? I did a big defoliation at the start of flower, but it seems like after a week they've grown it all back. I'm worried I will stress them out if I defoliate too much. Do I hold off a week or 2 before doing more?

Autoflower defoliate
Should I be defoliating? With her being an autoflower I read you should leave them alone but she just keeps on making new buds at the bottom of the plant. Should I remove a few to help the canopy above or just let her do her stuff?

Hello guys, should I start feeding the plants and if so what NPK values should I use? I replaced the plastic bags with plastic plates so I can collect the water and throw it. Since I added the plates though, the soil stays wet for much longer that it did, thank you!

Do you recommend some special aditive to start flushing or would pure water with controlled Ph do the job? Thanks for the help👍

Hey, was wondering if anyone had any advice about the Tarantula Nutrient from Advanced Nutrients. I just got it, a little late in the grow. I added it to the late two waterings and the plants look fine. I was just wondring what are some good ways to use it? It says 2ml per week..

First Grow Help And Feedback
Hello Grower, OG Kush Flower Day 24: Lollipopped and defoliated 10 days ago. Can/should I defoliate again? The buds seem like they could get more light. Also, I noticed some sprinkles on the top leaves—could this be from too much P/K? Any tips and general feedback are welcome!

SCROG VS KANE •what do you think is the better method over all , personally I find a scrog net very restricting for maintainace and often still have to use supports for the chunky bud . Kane’s are good for weight and light but don’t offer much room for guiding growth?
