Perfectly safe! I'd make room for the smaller leaves to get some light. Tucking the big leaves behind the smaller ones also gives very good results if you dont want to give her too much of a cutting. Hope this helps 🙂👍

Se é fotoperiodica acho que sim não há problema Se for automática eu não costumo cortar folhas com mais 50% de mau estado

What next? Scrog for a week and take off a lot of the lower plant. Scrog without too much trimming. Or flip in the next few days

I've read a lot when it pertains to defoliation. My plan is to wait a week or two longer before I defoliat them for the first time. Any suggestions on defoliation? I understand trimming leaves that block bud sites bud any other advice would be helpful!

I've read that Ghost Train Haze takes 10 weeks to flower, I have only ever grown 8 week flowering plants in the past. I am at 3 weeks of flower at the moment and my plants are only just showing 1or 2 hairs here and there. At what week will I need to add Pk?

Defoliated 2 fan leaves - pre flowering! :(
I've just removed 2 big fan leaves that were potential light blockers. I've just read that defoliating when flowering can stress the plant and reduce yield. The first pistels have appeared in the last few days and I only removed two leaves. Is it likely I've ruined it?

Looking for some advice on when to flush. Due to the temps here they only need water about every three days. So far I have received the following advice from enough to make it look reasonable. Flush begins at 25% amber hairs. What do yall think on this strain?

When to start defoliate?
When should i start to defoliate? I have already removed some of the lower leafs that turned yellow. I plan on putting them into flower within 2 weeks, they already take up 1/4 (almost 1/3) of the grow height including pot. (if you recommend other techniques, feel free to say)

I started a flush about 2-3 weeks back, because I thought it was close to harvest. Turns out she's taking longer than I anticipated. Should I restart nutrients, or keep it clean until harvest?
