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! 🚀

Incresing yields
Hey guys, I´m wondering since my plant has stopped growing what should I do now to make the most out of her? I know she´s not very big but I was hoping to get some decent yields. Let me know what you think I should do. Also should I defoliate? Thanks for all the help!

flowering fem lollipopping?
First week flowering, should cut away the less exposed sprouts? Branch in pic 1 is almost totally hidden and you can see it being much smaller. Also not sure about cutting the two tiny sprouts in pic 2, there are many similar to those in other branches.

Currently In Week 8 of Veg in ScrOG Setup - When Should I Flip to Flower?
I started a Scrog set up and believe I am in final stages to flip to flower. Let me know if I should flip now? I am afraid of overfilling and suffocating growing buds. Do I need to do some defoliation prior to the flip, or wait until a few weeks into flower? See Wk 8 Veg

Defoiliation on an auto strain
Hi guys, newbie here. I've been reading a bit about defoliation. Should I consider defoiling on an auto? If so what leaves should I eliminate? And when is a good time to remove the leaves? ✌️🥦

Defoliate this Bush?
Should I defoliate? She’s 2 months old, an auto flower, 1 month into flowering, prob another month to go. She’s very bushy and has flowers forming throughout. I already clipped the bottom fourth. Stretch seems over. Should I thin her out some more? Thanks guys

lower branches, late flower, lots of foliage
These lower branches are filling out with a ton of foliage but nothing exciting on my Jack hermie. Is it a waste of energy for the plant? Should I trim them? Cut these branches off? Let nature do its thing?

Won't cut yet or should I?
Am I doing this right? The top arrow is the way I'm bending her, or do I bend her back, bottom arrow? I already stressed her out enough. I defoliated to get rid of shade, bent more. Tied down the twigs. Comments needed lol 👊

How much/little should I prune?
I’ve read a lot of conflicting opinions these last few days regarding defoliation/plucking/pruning. Today is day 21 of 12/12 and my only goal is to prevent white powdery mildew. How many leaves would you take off? RH overnight spikes into the high 70’s if the dehumidifier is off

Cutting fan leaves
Just cut my fan leaves 😳 the stems we’re turning people, if I’m not mistaken it’s an early sign of an old leave that’s not as efficient in the photosynthesis? and it was covering the new growth, Or should I have waited?

Everyday defoliation. Is this correct?
i'm making a scrog with 4 royal gorilla q they were topped twice. Usually I take 3 to 4 fan leaves from each plant a day, cut with scissors to prevent them from shading budsites. I do this every day. Is this correct or am I stressing the plant? they started blooming this week

Trim side shoots @ week 3 flower?
I plan to do a final defoliation at the start of week 3 flowering. Lots of side shoots growing from the branches, should I snip those off during this final defoliation or will they produce decent buds? 4-way LST, 2 1/2’ diameter canopy
