I'd be very grateful for pointers on the best way & time to train/scrog & lollipop autos? Do they need a gentler touch than photoperiod plants? :)

Hey there! Yes you should go a little lighter on them as their photoperiodic sisters. Remember they don't have the same amount of time to recover from any stress they are caused. But if you're feeling confidant, then go for it!! That being said LST, SCROG are great options for autos. Good luck!

End of my 7th week of flower with this indica-dominant Green Crack. Breeder says 7 to 8 weeks. Trichomes are mostly cloudy, although a few are still clear. 1 or 2 amber ones. I want an energetic high. Just posted a new pic of plants. Harvest in 3 days or wait 1 week?

I am getting a new 45w led full spectrum light for my seedlings. When is the best time to switch the seedling over to my other light? It is a 2000w led full spec also, very, very strong and I do not want the little girls to burn up or get stunted with the power of the light.

I have been watering with peroxide as it breaks down into o2 in the soil, thinking this plus cloth grow bags will keep the roots breathing good. Peroxide also dissolves nutrient salts. Not sure if that is good or bad? Does anyone have experience or insight using peroxide?

Defoliate or not Should I defoliate? :-) I see at least one reason already - there's not so much space, no sub lighting and lower branches are blocked from light.

To top again? Or not to top again? That is the question. I'm working in a 2x4x5 tent so my height is limited. Not sure if I should flip now, or top the two mains again and flip at the end of this week? First photo grow so this is just one of many. Thanks fellow growers!

When temps increase due to warmer weather do most people raise lights or reduce wattage? I guess different growers use both methods to lower canopy temps but I can't see that this question has been asked very much. Thanks

What is your favorite way to finish a plant at this stage? Dark period? Starving? Get wild with some stem splitting? No need for flush cuz super soil 👍

What i like to know is how to do a proper flush, Do you go for a certain amount of days (ex. 2 weeks) or can i go let em dry and harvest when my run off EC is same as EC of flush water ? is it clean product then? So i am at that stage, my plant is fading can i let it dry out now?
