If I remove anything, it is while the girls are in transition, to slow their stretch some. Cheers

Did I over-defoliate these? Are they looking healthy for day 22 or so of flower?
This is my first grow. I know my plants have a shape problem, I didn't know about LST during veg and wasn't taking it seriously (I tried to train one but it was too late as you can see). They had a very rough veg life but now they seem happy in stable conditions. How do I look?

Es wird immer mehr Blattmasse. Was kann bzw. darf bzw. sollte ich abschneiden? Darf ich LST noch weitermachen und die Triebe noch in die "richtige" Richtung leiten? Ab wann sollte ich den Blüte-Dünger verwenden? Vielen Dank schon mal für eure Antworten. Ich liebe diese Community

Why does this site use g/w/plant vs gram/watt. It makes measuring multiple plants under a light look brutal. For example: G/w/p = 0.1 G/w = 0.864 Or the calculation should be (gram total÷plant total) ÷ (watt÷plant total) That way if you enter 1 or 9 the outcome is the same

Testing out my grow box and it’s running at temps from 85-89 degrees. Will this hurt the plants in a hydro setup? I haven’t checked water temps yet. Any advice would be much appreciated. I have the Supercloset Superbox setup with SuperPonics 8.

Do you remove small "buds" when doing defoliation?
When doing defoliation, are you removing these small "buds" (see pictures) that are not getting enough light?

SCROG in 2.5 weeks Flower - Thin out the canopy or not?
Its my first SCROG grow. I am 19 days into flower and there is still a tiny bit of stretch still. Should I thin out the canopy or leave it alone and let it finish as-is? I don't want to stunt their bud development. What do you think, are they too crowded?

Humidity in the tent - is it a problem? Outside the tent in the garage it's 7° C (45° F) and 70% RH Inside the tent (with 800 W heating), it's nice 25° C, but 20% RH I can bump it up with wet towels/spray Any other growers with similar circumstances / advice?

Witam. Mam pytanie. Czy roślinka rozwija się prawidłowo? Ma 30 Dni. Czy jest sens by Pozbawić trochę liści wiatrakowych i tych zasłaniających dolne wzrosty? Dwie środkowe maja mały odstęp między węzłami.
