Should I turn off the lights in the daytime because of heat?
BraveheartGeneticsanswered grow question 4y ago
Hi mate, sounds like a plan. It will lower average temps and allow more CO2 to be available for the plant. Good luck and happy growing
Hashyanswered grow question 4y ago
I have always run mine so lights are off during the hottest part of the day. I will start with the hottest 4 hrs and have lights off then. If the temps are still to high I'll extend the darkness by another 2 hrs. If they still struggling from heat I'll add another 2 hrs darkness, doing this over a space of a week.

How to do "LST" on Autoflowering Plants ?Hello dear growdiaries community, so on my last question people recommended NOT to use "Topping" for Automatic Strains but infact only use "LST" my question would be how that works, do i just bend down the leaves with the little things on the stem (marked on picture) 😂 thanks.

Should I start using techniques on my plant?My plant went into it’s 15th day. Should I use any technique during the next weeks?

Finalise my scheduleI’ve been told you need to have 2 days when you don’t give the plant anything but it’s not what I’m reading. Im sorry for wasting your time but I need to get this down as simply as possible. If I FEED the plant today with my run off, what do I give it tomorrow and the day after.

Darkness before flipping crop?I'm getting ready to flip my crop to flower. What's the significance of giving the crop 25 - 36 hours of darkness before flipping? In the past, I would just flip the lights to 12 and 12 and introduce the flowering fertilizer slowly while reducing the foliage solution.Week 7

When should I lollipop?When is it better to lollipop if at all?
I just flipped her two days ago and she started growing a bit faster. And looks quite bushy down there.
Should I do it now before she started growing buds? Or should I wait a bit? Or no need to do that at all?
