Thoughts on strain/stage on this guy?
Planted the seed from bud I'd bought back in October, then left in on my window through winter. Finally bought some cheap lights a month ago and now we are here.
Reckon I should defoliate?
Last photo is from just before I got lights.

Organomananswered grow question 4 years ago
Removing healthy green leaves will just reduce your plants capacity to produce energy, leading to slower growth and potentially smaller growth too.
So, my answer is "no".
Your plant needs every healthy green leaf she has to make the energy she needs to be able to grow her biggest and best flowers.
Simply, - maximum amount of healthy green leaves = maximum energy production = maximum growth and maximum health.
This principle is plant biology 101.
In over 35 years of growing, I am yet to see a plant that gets rid of perfectly healthy green leaves for no apparent reason or for no benefit either!
Hope this helps,............ Organoman.

My Girl's Gone Rogue with 10cm of Frosty Goodness!My lady decided to shatter the whole "week 10 harvest" and instead shoot 10cm, packing new flowers whiter than a yeti's behind in a blizzard!
This genetic curveball beats me.
Do I let her keep this frosty stretch, or do I harvest and let this mutant masterpiece become a solo act

Nitrogen Toxicity?Not sure if this is nitrogen toxicity or normal leaf color. Crinkling was caused by too much light and the fan. Got better in 24h after adjusting grow light and fan. Plants are starting week 2 of veg, Hulkberry Auto. Medium is light mix soil.

Day 49 autoflower huge and not yet flowering. Help!Day 49 autoflower not flowering? She's huge and I'm running out of room in the tent (58" and my tent is only 6 ft). Should I flip the tent to 12/12? Do I then keep it 12/12 the rest of the grow? How will that affect the Day 30 plant? Should I add 2nd light for smaller plant?

Foxtail Ready For HarvestHello. This plant of mine became foxtail. As the harvest time nears its end, blooms have begun to bloom again on their hills. Now the first flowers at the bottom are ready for harvest. What should I do? Should I harvest immediately or wait for the new flowers to mature?

18 weeks, but I'm not sure she's ready.The plant is 18wks old. Leaves are getting yellow, some buds are so fat the branches bend under the weight.
I'm worried some pistons are still white and I can still see some clear trichoms, but she's 3 weeks after the recommended date of harvesting.
Do you think she's ready?

Why dont my plants grow towards the middle/light and instead concentrate near the walls?Looks like my plants are growing towards the wall and not towards the middle where the light should be the best.
Why do the plants behave like that and what should I do?
Raise the net, rotate some of the plants, then redo the net?
Remove the net completely?
leave it as it is?

What do you guys think?It's my first grow (automatic, 6 weeks old) and compared to other plants, my plant looks a bit small/ridiculous. I give her 24/7 light (I read that on guides) is that maybe too much? What's your impression of her? I use two growlights (one from above and one from the side).
