Tell me if I've done anything wrong

Hey mate,
Shes looking good. The dark leaves suggest too much nitrogen. You want to reduce that quite a fair amount. They are really dark and shiny.
You're doing great though bro ๐
Hope this helps ๐

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.Techniques. Defoliation

At what point would you assume a seed will not germinate - I've read most will germinate within 3-5 days - but I'm curious when most people would bite the bullet and start a different seed? (This is not a concern yet - I'm only at 36 hours! I'm just impatient!)Week 1

During 12/12 lights, how far should I keep my LED's from the plants? Im running 2 HLG QB 96 (Samsung led's). I burned and bleached my last last grow after bringing the LED's from 24" to 17". I noticed after the damage started..moved them back to 24", turned intensity down.Week 1

Defoliation and lollipopOpinions about defoliation? I'm on second week at 12/12 and I did a kind of lollipop, just cut lower internodes and let the fan leaves still on. I think this way gives the opportunity to the plant to avoid deficiencies of mobile nutrients.. Is it a good idea?Techniques. Defoliation

Not sure when it is time to harvest? This is my first grow, and I've looked up some guides, but It is not clear to me whether I should wait for all the colas to have to right color. The main one looks pretty much done, but there are small ones to the sides still completely white.Week 12

As I'm increasing my P/K boost levels each watering, I'm ending up with lower and lower pH. I've heard it's not recommended to add silica during flowering, such as that found in GHE pH Up. Is that true or not really a big deal? If true, are there any good simple alternatives?Week 12

Should I harvest this plant in six days, or wait two more weeks? Iโm away next week and I think I harvested my Polar Express a bit too early and donโt want to do that again. Now at Day 90.
Outdoor grow with cool nights means it takes longer than Fast Buds says until harvest.Week 13

Ok, kinda of a poll question. Looks like I am about 2 weeks from harvest based on Seedsman recommendations.
Wondering how long most people like to flush. I am going with the tradition 2 weeks, but am wide open to being educated here.
So how long to flush using just H2O?

Should I defoliate?Do you think i should defoliate? There are really a lot of leaves for being 21 days old, and 3-4 of them are the size of a man's hand. She did not stretch too much till now, so there's a huge amount of leaves in a small space.
I made LST these last 2 days, not going to top. ThxWeek 4
