If your not getting enough good air flow through the plant it may be advisable to remove them lowest leaves touching the soil.

Now is the time to clean them up. You can take a few leaves off that cover bud sites and will help with air flow.

Hey mate, You can but they will come off on their own. I'd just leave them. It wont cause any harm. Mine actually came off today coincidentally!

Just a few weeks from harvest and have some friends telling me to harvest and dry with the roots attached. Can't find any info on this. Anybody have experience with drying the whole plant roots included? Their idea is to wash the soil off the roots then hang them upside.

Here is a question for the masters of ganja!! Do you believe the fact that i keep her height as low as 10cm can turn against me in terms of lower harvest or any other issues?? Drop me your thoughts, please!! <3 xx

I have nine plants grown from seed and one is behind in flowering. They are all in the same tent with the same nutrient. For a couple of weeks into 12/12 she showed no signs. Now she is flowering normally, just way behind the others in development. What gives?

Hello! So as you can see above I already transplanted my plant. How do I best recover the plant from transplant shock? I've seen a lot of different directions online and hoping I could get some clear direction from anyone in the community. -Cheers

The last figure shows the topping plan i'd pick for this round, but i didn't manage to grow my plants this way. Better luck next time! Only now i want to know, can anyone point me to a diary that shows a plant that actually is topped that way? Thank you very much. π

Any guesses on how long to harvest. I'm starting to see some gold trichomes glistening in the sunlight, but definitely less than 1%. A good chunch of the calyxes from the side branches are swelling and pistils changing orange, main cola still mostly white pistils.

Defoliate
I asked a week ago whether or not to defoliate my plants and was advised to leave them be. But it's looking like where flowers are forming is being impeded by the larger fan leaves, so I suppose same question should I trim these or am I too late now flowers are coming. Thanks

According to the trichromes I'm guessing there's more than 2 weeks remaining before harvest. I'm looking for all cloudy with some amber trichromes and the majority of them are still clear with slightly cloudy. Anyone able to give me a more accurate timeline? 1 week? 2 weeks? 3?

Iβm doing an early harvest of 2 plants. I wanted to dry the buds in the tent, with the remaining 5 plants, as I donβt 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?

Defoliating Autos in Flower
Hi, I'm in the middle of my first grow with autos and could do with advice on defoliation. You'll see from my diaries that things are OK so far but I've got issues with high humidity now that I'm going into flowering. Will it be safe defoliating them now or will it shock them?
