Hello everyone, I wanted to ask, should I cut the ...
Experimentgreenanswered grow question 6y ago
Defoliating this early into flowering can definitely force energy into the budsites and if you're getting limited hours of direct sunlight each day I'd want to open those spots up. Personally I'd cut away those 4-6 largest fan leaves that are sticking out off of the main stem on their own, that would open a bit off space but still leave the leaves that are attached to a branch untouched.
I also firmly believe in cleaning up the bottoms of any foliage that is in the shadows, the few times i didn't do this i ended up with a lot more tiny popcorn buds than big solid buds up top. ✌️

It's called defoliation and the best way to use that method is to use it exactly the way you're planning too : only remove the leaves that are blocking light to lower budsites AND as you'r in 1st week if flowering the plant will stretch more and will have a chance to recover. When you defoliate you need to do it carefully as you don't want to stress your girl

Do you think it's ready?It's my first time growing autos and i'm trying to figure out when to cut it. She is still growing some white pistils but most of them have turned brown (and most trichomes are white with a few ambar), so i don't know what to do. Do i wait or harvest?
Thanks for your time!

Drying stateI’m not sure if the buds of the plants that where indoors are good or they not drying well.
I have the grow room temperature varying from 18 to 21 degrees
But I’m not sure if the buds are moldy or even how moldy weed looks like.
Can some one please give me a opinion on them.Week 12

If I top the lower nodes, can I get the plant to fill out more? I have improved the set up and the light seems better than what I had earlier.
Pruned the lower branches already. I have a grow tent ordered and will be able to fully enclose the plants in a few days. thanks.Week 5
