Pinch her?

ThemNutsstarted grow question 4y ago

Some of the fan leaves are blocking new growth. I wouldn't mind doing it, but the leaves im talking about are from the last node, right underneath my topping. Is it OK to pinch the leaf off or do i chill the F out?

Yeah, you can remove those leaves, it's called defoliation when you remove leaves that are blocking new growth.

Share your mutant experience! I have a three-leafed beauty!Whorled phyllotaxy, apparently! Definitely a sign of good fortune :) Did some reading up and my impression is that there's nothing special to be done about this, including feeding regimen. Maybe I should build a hexagonal tent for her? 😁 Share your experience and urban legends

What should I do with my plants that have grown thicc to receive more light? - First Grow My plants (1 auto, 1 photo) have grown a lot and are now pretty thicc. Should I remove some leaves to allow more light directly on the new growths from the nodes? More agressive LST? Leave them alone? They have grown in a weird pattern because of my LST attempts (see pic).

Too many colas? (Serious)I'm scared that I have too many colas. I have to continuously trim leaves to avoid humidity hotspots. The internodal distance is super short. All branches are stripped from all leaves except the ones visible from above (3-4). I am afraid that the buds won't have enough space

Regretted ovewatering guy. Still bot enough?Hi peeps, a regretted ovewaterer here. Is It normal to wait 10 days in between waterings? I must say I was out for 5 days while humidity came a little up and temp was around 16°c, now fixed, btw the smallest of the four seems a bit overwatered even with this few. I'm puzzled.

Defoliation OK day 12 flower?Can I remove all the foliage and the lower shoots that don't see the light? I am in day 13 of flowering I have the feeling that they would grow better if a lot of the useless stuff was out, as there are already a lot of shoots.

Defoliating the auto on the late flowering stage The canopy is very dense with a huge amount of small leaves I can't tuckle because of their size. It's a deep stage of flowering. So I wander is it safe to cut 30-50% of leaves to improve light penetration or it would be better to leave it as is?
