measuring ppm runoff in soil can often be tricky , i would buy a bunch of cheap PPM meters (because they break often) and see for yourself, you definitely do get more control if only because you start measuring your inputs aswell. Hope this helps! 🚀

It is the end of 9th week (5th of flowering) and the hairs are becoming curled and brown. Now, I cannot see if thricomes are milky because I have no microscope so my question is: how can I understand when to flush the plants? Is it now the right time or should I wait a week more?

At start of light today in this tent I noticed this single top bud looking a little shriveled or curled compared to the others. What could cause this? Plant is not showing any other signs, but is getting over a very brief fungus gnat infection.

As these are auto's and i want to stress them as little as possible. Should i or should i not take off the really big fan leaves that are covering at least 2 or 3 potential tops. I know the leaf is doing a good job being there but i also am not really able to tuck the leaf?

Defoliated 2 fan leaves - pre flowering! :(I've just removed 2 big fan leaves that were potential light blockers. I've just read that defoliating when flowering can stress the plant and reduce yield. The first pistels have appeared in the last few days and I only removed two leaves. Is it likely I've ruined it?

One of my girls is showing signs of N tox so I'm going to drop nutrients for the next week and just feed plain PH'd water until a good runoff. My question is; during this week should I still be giving Bud Factor X, Big Bud, and Bud Candy? There isn't N in those.

Should I harvest this plant in six days, or wait two more weeks? I’m away next week and I think I harvested my Polar Express a bit too early and don’t want to do that again. Now at Day 90. Outdoor grow with cool nights means it takes longer than Fast Buds says until harvest.

Advice on defoliation/LST - getting too chaotic here Is it fine to cut off some of the big fan leaves this early or should i just tie them down to expose the tops to more light? If defoliation is fine already please let me know which leaves can be cut off, and if not i also kindly take advices on tying them down. Thanks!
