About 3 weeks in is a late as I like to pluck. After that I’ll just help the yellowing leaves come off- but never anything green 🌱

Do I need to trim more?
Do I need to trim more? This is my first successful attempt, 2nd grow ever. First was a disaster (this one too, almost.) I am petrified that I trimmed too much. But - when I see others plants, I'm questioning if I actually need to do more. Thank you in advance!

When should I defoliate photos in indoor 2x4x6 on day 47
This is my first grow in a 2x4x6. I got carried away and packed it out. im on day 47 for everything. 3 autos, 6 photos. I defoliated autos right before flowering. The question I have is should I let the photos grow a little more before defoliating and or topping?

Hey guys, compared to other grows in the week 8 stage, my plant looks quit small and stunted. Does anyone think I could have done something better? maybe I was too aggressive with training or defoliating. I was hoping to be flipped to flower by now.

Should I do a bit of defoliation and if so, when?
Should I defoliate these a bit? And when specifically? Especially the really bushy Stilton x 3BOG. I am haven't adjusted LST since first signs of flower but the tent is a bit crowded and I thought that defoliation might help with air flow and even distribution of light?

Flowering Defoliation Question
Hey All, I have been pulling the small leaves out of the buds when they get long enough to pluck from their stem, so I dont damage the buds. In order to open up more light to the actual buds, should I put a pair scissors to these leaves? Or leave tops bushy?

Should I defoliate during flowering outdoors?
(Autoflower) Should I defoliate? I made the rookie mistake of doing NO defoliating or lst during vegging, cuz they were skinny then. Did minor defol during flowering.It’s in full flower with 2-3 weeks left and we have about 7 straight days of rain. Worried about wpm and bud rot.

I’m a bit unsure, re: bubblicious, do you think i should fim or top or leave them at this point? as they are pretty squat also do you think putting the full spectrum lighting on now is ok as i have done? i figured as its auto it wouldn’t make a difference, more light more growth.

Does anyone else get a brown film around the water line in your reservoir? I have never had a problem using maxibloom but received Two pints of A+B advance nutrients. I also see this when using floranova. Could anyone shed some light on this. Tap water starts 5.5 ph slowly raises

I was moving the plant and it fell on the floor. Luckly I catch it in mid fall, so the plant hadn't got any damage, but a lot of soil finished on the colas. I tried to clean them but they remain a bit dirty, because they are very sticky. How can I clean them?

I want to do some controlled pollination but prevent pollen from blowing to other branches while doing it. Anybody ever tried mixing pollen with water and pouring that water over the buds. I also wonder if it could be frozen in this form if it works.
