If possible you should try tucking them so the bud sites receive the best light and airflow. I've heard of people taking a few fan leafs off auto during flower but I don't believe it's common practice

Common theme is a week of sugars and a week of flush. But here's what doesn't get talked about... Do I keep the PPM stable or do I let it rise/fall. If I'm running straight up RO, the water is going to gain more ppm. Does that mean I should change Rez daily? Add sugars daily?

What's going on with this leaf? Changed colors overnight?Woke up to find this leaf in the back of my tent. What's going on here? Day 46 flower. Recommended flowering of 60-70 days. Looking at my timeline, I figured I had maybe 1 or 2 more feedings left before I started giving just water till the end. Should I worry or is this normal?

I’ve been using dry nut from Root Organics, I’m curious if I still need to water to run off since I’m in coco. I want to make sure my dry nut don’t get flushed out. Is dry nuts optimal for coco? Do i water the same as others?

V-Shaped 1st pair of leafes /White Widow AutoHi i'm currently in my second 'experiment' to grow some auto's. The white widow shows 5 days after germination a v-shaped form of their first pair of leafes. The 2 Royal Jack's are slightly at the same path so i moved my GoLeaf X1 LED (150W) at 60cm distance.

Edges of sugar leaves on top cola brownFor two of my plants, the edges of the top colas' sugar leaves have gained some brown color. It showed up shortly after I introduced the grow light on full intensity which leads me to believe it MAY be light burn. I'm also paranoid about bud rot though. See photos. Your thoughts?

Clones with weird spots !I took two clones from my NL from the side of my plant where I could notice few weird looking leaves. Since they were cuttings they had this spots and I cannot figure out what that is. The plant is growing as normal but looks weird. Is it something that could be fixed ?

Hey all I just uploaded 2 pics from today that show the problem I’ve had. This is the first time I’ve had any issues like this and it was an hour after watering with ferts. pH was 6.3. I think some damage is from spilling but that doesn’t explain the widespread wilty/weak leaves.
