Hello! You shouldnt be doing that, will most likely stunt her since she grows by catching sun Light. Better do some lst!

Without knowing much about the DNA. my plants are roughly 14-16 inches flipping them now most have at least 6 tops or more. Curious if anyone can guess what the yield would be this early?? Using 2 450w led in my 3x3 tent.

My buds dry up really quick on the outside to a crisp when drying and the stem is still bendable… I have no fan on them and they are in a cabinet when drying. I think I am losing a lot from this, how do I prevent this?

First time grower: Should i defoliate? If yes, where should i cut it? I fear to do something bad.

Defoliating some more
I know that there is a difference of opinion when it comes to defoliating. I have removed about a dozen in the last week. I think it's still pretty bushy, but I don't want to overdo it. Finger away or better yet thinning out a little more ?

Topping or LST after 1st topping
Last week I topped this little baby, the plant now is growing ok. I noticed that not only the two top side branches are growing a lot, but that the ones on the node under it too. I would like to make the 4 grow and like that I don't have to top more, is it ok? How can I do it?

Tops spacing
My plant is really tight for space between tops. I'm trying not to disturb her anymore. I really don't want to cut anymore off but the foliage is getting insane. My question is do my tops have enough space or do I need to find a way to spread out more, and should I defoliate?

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?

Breeder says harvest at 70days,latest pics up are day 64 - sure she won’t be ready in a week.thinking of only starting flushing in a week then harvesting two weeks after that depending on trichomes which are clear at the moment. Why do you all think?

When doing defoilation I teilled off all the fan leaves except four at each top. My question is how much of the other branches should I trim off too? Also, should you trim a bit at a time so there is not much shock or everything at once? Any advice is appreciated.

Podar o no podar??
Should I remove the leaves and some more stems?? I think so to improve ventilation in the lower area and boost the higher tips, although I've already done two prunings and I'm starting the third week of flowering, and there are some who say it's better not to remove them.. what to do??

Currently I'm running the full spectrum of GHE nutrients, but beginning to run low. My question is this: What nutrient brand do you use, and why? I run in Coco, so it'd need to be versatile.
