Should I defoliate?
Hempy_The_Kidanswered grow question 4y ago
Leaves = plant energy. Autos start budding usually around week 5. It takes an auto couple weeks to heal. I wouldn't.

Defoliation for better ventilation?Should I defoliate/prune to ensure better ventilation? I am going to flip the plant soon. It is quite bushy with big leaves and sometimes it is difficult to water it as there are a lot of leaves down there.
And when is it better to put the net? Before of after the flip?

Defoliating some moreI 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 ?

although it's a great harvest if you compare the 2 same plants they are totally different in color of buds.
Grown in same condition with same lights and feeding?
Separated them in Curing because maybe they also will have different smoke and taste and effect?
any advice?Week 20

So as my girl gets really close to harvest, something’s been bugging me... while the buds are super frosty, there is almost no trichomes on the small sugar leaves. Maybe it’s strain related but the breeders image shows frosty leaves also I normally like to make a tincture w/ trimWeek 12

What nutrients would you recommend for this grow? I still have some @foxfarms combo nutes. This is all about trying everything until I find what’s best for me. We have a massive amount of knowledge on this site, and I trust growers more than anyone. Thanks in advance.Week 3

This will be my first greenhouse and dry amendment grow with several indoors under my belt.
My expected problems this grow are likely to be insect and disease pressures specific to greenhouses, along with temperature regulation (115+F last year), suggestions are always welcome!Week 1

Apart from saving money on the electric bill or as a method of mitigating higher temperatures. what good reason is there to not grow autoflowering varieties on a 24 hour light cycle? With a limited time to get them finished up, why not be growing them on overdrive the whole time?Week 4

Slow growth even though healthy looking plant.
Suspecting:
1:watering issues as It is my first time watering in soil indoors, even more so with living organic.I always wait for the top inch to be dry and or the pot to feel lighter. (1L/feed)
2:light distance?
What do you think?Week 3
