Currently I am watering in the evening. Is it better to water in the morning? I get the sun hitting the plants at 8am so I’m always concerned if I water in the morning the sun will cause some damage.

Hey guys, the Atami guide is telling me to switch to Tera Max & Atazyme after week 2. Before that I was using Rootfast & Tera Leaves. Should I switch back to the old feeding schedule or proceed with atami's guide? Also, I want to LST but I'm not really sure when to start. Thank u

Hello growers. Is there a max limit on how much I should defoliate? I feel like I could improve the light to the lower levels more but I’m worried it could harm the plants and affect the growth?

Should I harvest next week-ish? My pistils and trichomes appear to indicate its almost ready. But my flower time is 6 of 10-11 weeks. I'm going to check next week and take another picture of the trichomes, but they're at the beginning of showing amber.

My dark devil auto has just started to flower, not even a full week in yet. I have it planted in a 13” terra cotta pot (~2-2.5gallon) and there are a couple roots coming out of the bottom of the pot. Should I attempt to transplant into a bigger pot or is there anything I can do?

Does anyone know any quick and easy methods to lower the humidity? When my lights go off I’m hitting like 60% RH and I’m concerned I might start to get some sort of mould/rot? Lights on isn’t an issue as I’m averaging around 37% RH. Any help or guidance would be helpful, cheers ✌️

I read LST is the best way to get bigger yields on autoflowers. This ak is about 6" tall now with about 4 nodes. Do u think she is to small to train? When should I begin that? Thank you!

question or two in one. When should I start pruning and when should I top? I have been seeing topping should be at 3rd node? Anyone tried that? And how about trimming the leaves up? Should I snip the first set, the two single true leaves? Wait a while longer?

What is the white stuff on my clay pebbles? I think it's some sort of salt build up but entirely sure. I flushed them out so we will see if it happens again this week.

high @all I will switch in 3 days to 12/12. Currently i am driving my lights by approximately 150w and 10000lx and a distance about 90cm/35in at the middle of the canopy. What should do when switching? Should i drive the 150w for 2 more weeks or should i turn them to full power?

Do you defoliate your autos.
Wanting to get other opinions on defoliation for autos. Do you do it? How much if so? From what I've read, some people do and some don't. I think the reasoning I read not to defoliate is that you want to limit stress on autos due to their determinate grow period. Thanks, cheers!

Extreme defoliation
Hi everyone, I practiced extreme defoliation during the 3rd week of flowering, can you give me any advice? Can the plants be blocked? These are some photos of the defoliation.
