Is peat moss good to use as a replacement for Coco...

TheOneWhoKnocksstarted grow question 7y ago

Is peat moss good to use as a replacement for Coco coir or regular potting mix? I plan to add nutrients or amending my own soil if you will, but will peat moss work in a pinch?

You can use just peat but it's usually better added to things. I have a few potted plants that do well with it but they're not cannabis. If you do use it, be careful of overwatering since it stays moist a long while and it's pretty acidic too. ✌️

I have been aggressively LST training throughout VEG and have done it twice since triggering flowering 7 days ago. SCROG. My question is how long into flowering do you typically continue to LST train before just allowing everything to just shoot up. Up to date Recent pics above.

When would be the best time to pot them in the 20L pots and leave them permanently outside. In The Netherland there are quite some fluctuations in temperature and weather even in the summer. So i want to be sure they can handle it.

How much/little should I prune?I’ve read a lot of conflicting opinions these last few days regarding defoliation/plucking/pruning. Today is day 21 of 12/12 and my only goal is to prevent white powdery mildew. How many leaves would you take off? RH overnight spikes into the high 70’s if the dehumidifier is off

I defoliated and removed lower, small, shaded bud sites during the first 3 days of flower. Was it a bad move considering the plant is bushy as heck and hasn’t stretched yet? Left about 25 « tops » (2 actual main colas) with some growth right underneath. Did I hurt my future yield
