Removing leaves (LST)?
SmokeyBear420started grow question 3 years ago
I am now 3 weeks in to vegetation. At what point can I start removing the leaves that are 1)not getting a lot of light because of the internodes above, and 2) blocking light to internodes under them?

Would be better to leave sun leaves to build as much photosynthesis as possible. Just tuck all the fan leaves under the branches that shooting out from the nodes. You will have to do it twice a day but once the branches get taller than the leaves you won't have you. Good growing

Lots of philosophy on this. I’m not a huge fan of removing fan leaves until 2 weeks prior to flip— but I’m also not a fan of LST either—- I only remove the 2 lowers and two upper fans at this stage—- they are your solar panels. All growth comes from them—- hence why I don’t really remove until later.

Wet shiny spots on leaves.I find occasionally such wet shiny spots on leaves. Any idea what the root cause and how to fix it?
They are not sticky although look like.
I cannot say whether they smell because smell of the leaf is too strong 😶
I can rub them off with the thumb with no sign

Hi Grow Community! I am trying LST for the first time. Plant is about 14cm hight. As far as I know I need to bend the stem until it's horizontal with the soil. But the stem of my plant is already so thick and solid. Does it need to be rly horizontal?Should I try and bend it more?

Big difference in first true leaves' sizeBig difference in first true leaves' size
Its almost day 5 after emergence. Is this normal? Should I be concerned?
ALSO: It's still a seedling but, I maybe think the cup in which i'm growing it in is too small, or rather I put too little soil (9cm diameter , 4cm tall dirt).

Bending branchI decided to bend the branch to form a bush.The stem was quite thick and when I bent it, I formed a large bend radius, but the next day I noticed that it took a sharp angle. How bad is it, and if it's bad, how to fix it? Thanks in advance🙏

First Grow 4 weeks into Veg - Let my humidity get too high for 1 night. Need help with mold/septoria/?Last 3 days I've pruned diseased leaves every morning, foliar sprayed peroxide leaves & topsoil, & added some to watering solution. Is only affecting one plant in tent. Humidity no longer issue (was waiting 4 inline fan). If I keep pulling off leaves it's going to die anyway.

3 days in, only cotydelons with no sign of the first true leaves. Have you seen this and has it recovered?This plant was stunted at the start after he couldn't get his hat off, but now looks pretty healthy however it's been 3 days of just cotydelons and absolutely no sign of the first true leaves. Have you had this before and did it recover to eventually grow true leaves?

whether I should transition her into the flowering stage or wait a bit longerHey everyone,. I need your opinions on whether I should transition her into the flowering stage or wait a bit longer. I think I may have trimmed the main stem too much to the side, and I'm a bit worried. The pictures and the video is in my diary if you have a look I'd be glad
