answered grow question 5y ago
I would, I just wouldn't super crop or defoliate. Pipe cleaners are great to have in place and you can loosen or tighten them up if one gets away from the pack.

Looking for opinions on a try of LST and a thought about taking off big fan leaves from the top
Had a shot at LST training one of my girlfriend plants, just wondering opinion from people if it has been done correctly. Also had a thought to take off two big fan leaves from the top to get more light onto nodes, not quite sure if that would be good idea

General foxtailing thoughts? How do my plants looks? :)
Hi all -- Looking for some harvest advice. Amnesia Express advertises a 7 week flower timeline (Wk 10 fl now); however, still not showing any amber (Trichs cloudy). I can see the buds beginning to foxtail a bit, and wanted to hear from other growers. Chop w/ all cloudy or wait?

How do you think?
How many weeks do you think the harvest has? The fragrance started to increase and most of the trichome was clear and cloudy?

When should I LST and add Nutrients?
Wanted to low stress train this plant if I am able too.I am not really sure when to start, does the plant look old enough to begin introducing this technique? Should I wait another week? Also when should I start feeding the plant nutrients? It’s still growing pretty fast.

What is the risk to apply HS training(Topping Defoliation) to the strain for which LST/SCRoG is recommended?
I am growing Auto Black Opium(Divine Seeds). The description says SCROG and LST work good. I started bending it recently and did 1 time topping earlier. I feel I need to do some defoliation, but it will be 2nd HS technique, which contradicts the recommendations. Should I?

Can I harvest tomorrow?
Hello. It’s gonna rain for the next two days, and I already have some mould and caterpillar issues. How much difference does it make if I keep this Gelatto for another week? I don’t want to lose too much for a little extra THC. Thank you in advance.

!! OUTDOOR !! || LST on AUTOs
Never had a satisfying LST when growing Autos outdoor, my idea is that suboptimal conditions of outdoor enviroment lead to slowed veg (compared to indoor) and low stretch. Maybe letting them grow without training in the end leads to bigger yield. What's your idea/experience?

Light Cycle
Anyone with experience, should I pull back my light cycle and try to force her to start budding or keep on believing she’s an auto? Really don’t want to stress her to a possible herm.

Snapped a branch. How worried should I be?
Snapped the main stem during LST, right below the main cola on SLH(just starting flower). Braced it with ducktape and propped it with some bamboo. At this point, everything else looks fine, so I'm just pretending it's not there. How worried should I be? Anything else I should do?

Bending branch
I decided to bend the branch to form a bush.The stem was quite thick and when I bent it, I formed a large bend radius, but the next day I noticed that it took a sharp angle. How bad is it, and if it's bad, how to fix it? Thanks in advance🙏

How much longer do you think?
PE leaves are losing color at this point, she’s getting closer. Not sure how much longer to let this one go. Day 57. Online recommended harvest date says day 55-65. Trichomes appear mostly cloudy to me already but she’s shooting new white pistils daily. Thoughts on 10-14 days?

Discoloration progressing from old fan to colas, is this a concern/requires action?
I have some discoloration happening to OB5,more pics in week 6. Started first on few old fan leaves with yellow & brown/purple patches and now is occurring to the several of the colas and is spreading to more fan leaves. Water pH may have been in the 5-6 range last week. HlpPlz

Just want to clarify something as it doesn't really make sense to me. Does leaving your plants harvest for a longer period of time mean that it will be more of a sativa, and less of a Indica? I seen lodes of different opinions online and would love to learn more about this.
