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! 🚀

Defoliat smaller branch on autoflower
My auto us in first week of flowering, and outgrowing my box. Did some defoliation yesterday, seemed to stop the rapid stretch a bit. Also there is a stem on the bottom, i think won't carry a bud, should I snip it off, give the other budsights a better chance?

My plants have a dense foliage and some branches are outgrowing the main colas. I've been tucking the fan leaves around and I tried to gently push the branches to the sides but I think that might not be enough. What can I do to fix both things without stressing them too much? 😵

What are the beige/brown spots a sign of? Why are the two Cookies plants always droopy yet the Blue Dream never droopy and they have all been watered the same. Roughly 1g each every 5 or so days when pots are dry and light. My light is up to 30" so that's not it.

My seedling in the red solo cup was knocked over and fell out! I immediately picked it back up and replanted it in the cup. I also added more soil and watered it soon after. Is there anything else I should do or is this seedling dead? Btw there was no physical damage to the plant

3rd week of flowering, lower branches are snapping off easily. Too late for a harsh defoliation?
Plants are in the middle of their 3rd week of flowering schedule, about 3' 8" tall from the stem, top two thirds are doing well, but the bottom branches are breaking off by just being brushed against when watering. Is it too late for a harsh lower defoliation?

Howzit, So I am going to attempt to graft an arm onto my one plant, seeing that I mainlined two great stems and like an inattentive fool broke one off. My question: Anyone done this before and have any pointers for me? Not sure what the likeliness of this working is.

Do you switch to flower nutes as SOON as you see white pistils appear or should you give it another week or so?

I've heard a lot of back and fourth whether you should, or should not use plant protectors (bugs,mold, etc) during flower period. I just want to know what is and what is not ok to give your plants during flower, assuming that the plant in question is in fact healthy. Thanx guys

Is it normal to have different flowering times on occasion within the same strain? I believe yes as I have one that just grew one tall branch. So it focused on flowering sooner as it expended less energy on vegetation. She will be ready to harvest 3-4 weeks sooner than her sis.

Question…During drying and curing. With winter I’m using gas for heat, which drops my humidity. Does any one dry less than 7 days before jarring it up? or dry it in paper bags before curing?

Hello growers. Is there a max limit on how much I should defoliate? I feel like I could improve the light to the lower levels more but I’m worried it could harm the plants and affect the growth?
