I would not remove any of those nodes at this point. Eventually those will become branches. Only remove the nodes coming off those branches. Just let her grow for now.

I want to harvest when my trichs are 60/40 or 50/50, with that in mind, when do I use Ripen? I know it stimulates a lot of stigma growth, maybe now's the time. I think I'm about 5 weeks from harvest at the moment, but there's no real way to know.

Do you think I need to change my watering? I has 3 plants in a 30 gallon tub of super soil. One was male and I cut it out after it showed sex about week 5 from seed. Should I stay on the same time schedule and less water or less frequently? It will be interesting .

When would you suggest, I introduce Canna PK 13/14? I have started to notice white pistols, that I assume is a sign that it's in pre-flower (refer to videos above). What is the optimal PH, PPM, Humidity and Temp at this stage? From the videos, do you see any deficiency?

How do you flush exactly in DWC? Do you just change out the reservoir with ph adjusted water? Or do you just lower the ppms(my starting water is 130-170)? Is there any flushing agents that actually work?

When should I start feeding with nutrients? I am using 1/3 soil (John innes no.1) 1/3 coir and 1/3 perlite. The soil says it has feed for 4 weeks, but I'm only using a 1/3 in my mix. Don't want to overload with nutrients when young? Maybe commencing week 3?

Defoliate?Just repotted my baby after learning she may have too much nitrogen. Should I trim all the damaged leaves or should I wait until the plant gets stronger? Also, when will the stem become thicker? Is there something I can do?
