Yeah I reckon you could remove that, coz it's not gonna do shit and it's very shaded there.

Your picture is all leaves. Which new growth and leaves are you asking about? What are you trying to do/accomplish?

So... in the middle of week 5 I've noticed tiny pistols on my plants. I wonder if I should change feeding to bloom nutrients? If yes, should I flush it with AN Flawless Finish first for few days or go straight to blooming food? Appreciate any suggestions ;) Regards to y'all!

I live in a terraced house facing East so my front windows get the am sunshine and my garden and rear windows get the pm. When she is old enough I will move her into the greenhouse and she will get about 4/5 hours of direct sunlight. Is this sufficient for an autoflower?

I am using a crude yeast and sugar water mix for CO2 production. My space is 80cm x 3m x 2.3m. Does anyone have any experience of whether this is doing anything? I have the fan on constantly so the air is being recycled. Just wondering if what I am doing is worth it?

Why would my PH level jump from 5.6-5.8 to 7+ in a 24 hour period? I leave for 2 days every weekend so no one to tend to my plants. I don't want to deal with a lock out.

I’m doing an early harvest of 2 plants. I wanted to dry the buds in the tent, with the remaining 5 plants, as I don’t have any other air conditioned location in the house. There is a dark space above the lights. 25c & 45% RH atm. Is it a viable idea? Or should I just never do it?

1) How to know when to stop the drying process and start curing? 2) For my harvest (since its stunted) the buds just wrap around the main stem... how do I break them apart to put into jars? Thanks! Really appreciate all your help :)

Cut leaves off?
She is a auto. About 62 days in. Just started to show a few white hairs yesterday. Should I cut some leaves off and open her up for more light and air? Getting tight in my tent. If so, should I do it at night? In the morning or does it matter? Thanks.

Defoliating FastBuds Autos
Hey Auto Growers. I am wondering what you think about defoliating autos. I’ve had differing results and don’t want to stunt them. Mostly the AH & JH to let light in. I’ve tried tucking but they just pop out in the wind. If yes when is the best time. Thanks, Happy Growing 🌱

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!

What leaves are ok to remove?
Hi! Is it fine to remove the upper fan leaves on this plant as well or should I wait thill the side branches get bigger leaves? I removed the lowers leaves after LST so nothing touches the soil, but some of them are blocking a bit light for the new growth. Thanks!
