Defoliate?
Will I defoliate the 1st node site as shown in the picture below, when I top her? There doesn't seem to be much growth there the last week and I'm worried that there is wasted nutrients going to this site? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

Concerning pH - I have seen a chart which shows how fluxuating your pH between 5.8 and 6.8 is helpful in releasing different nutrients. I have also seen most sites say that you should keep it as constant as possible say keep it @ 6. Does anyone have an opinion based on experience

2 weeks flowering and only one plant is starting to show just one tiny set of pistols that I could see. Should they not have started showing sex by now? My tent has pinhole light leaks around the seams, is this enough light to fuck with my plants?

Defoliation Trim Uses ?
Hi fellow Growmies, I just done my 26 day flower defoliation. I have quite a substantial amount of lower flower branches and fan leaves. I hate wasting anything from this beautiful plant so would love to know some ideas on what I could do with it?

Weird Autos (RQS NLA, same strain) still vegging day 50. Only some preflower, but nice plants. WHAT would YOU do?!
This is the most unpredictable auto flowers I've ever had. It will be 50 days soon and only preflower on one plant. Ive used a 12/12 light schedule on autos before. Should I try this on these plants? If, so keep it 12/12 untill the end? No turning back to 20/4 when they go?

I guess my only question right now is why does my plant have a set of 1, 3, 5 and 4??? They devoloped on the third node up after the set of three fingered leaves and before the five. I’ll include a photo is it normal or is it weird?

Do you guys add flowering nutrients right after preflower? personally i don't count the first 14 days as flowering So what is the right way? Right after preflower? or Week 5 after 12/12 (so 14 days preflower + 3 weeks into flower) Always wondering how others do it
