PaulTstarted grow question 7 years ago
My plant is extremely bushy and thick with a lot of nodes coming up in random places. Will this be a problem in flowering? Can I just separate the colas as they develop in flowering? My concern is the light getting to each cola. However my 1200W LED is doing a good job atm.

The plamt is looking great and bushy. And when colas begin to get big, you may need some sticks of bamboo to help hold them up but yes also to kind of separate them for good airflow. I think your light will also be good through flowering, 1200 led is pretty powerful. However if you were to do a slight defoliation and remove any leaves blocking those bud sites, it will help immensely, taking off 10-20% in the veg and then another small one into early flowering. Just dont get too carried away removing leaves as the plant will still need some good healthy ones.
Happy growing great job already.

So long as you keep all the tops the same length it will produce many large buds. At this stage I would only remove leaves that are shading branches reverting them from maintaining that even canopy. Once in flower then you can remove the large fan leaves and lower branches that won’t get enough light to produce quality buds

I would transplant before flowering, to a 20 liter pot, to give the plant more space for the stretch. As for separating the colas, sure LST works great, tying down the branches helps a lot in keeping the canopy even and is not stressful at all.
As for defoliation, be careful if you've never done it and only do it after the stretch is done, at day 21 of flower if you want to.

Hi,
Defoliate the big fan leaves blocking bud sites so light can get through the canopy. That will help develop your colas ;) Hope this helps

Rate the Bud - 6 Week completed floweringSo this is my first time growing with using BioThrive grow, bloom, calmag bottle ferts. Would greatly appreciate any feedback on improvements, those 2-3 leaves with yellow spots seem concerning.
On 'honest' scale of 1 to 10, how are my buds looking for week 6 in flowering?

When to use terra aquatica ripen? Wait until they look ready to harvest or when they look like they will be ready in 2 weeks while using ripen?I'm coming to the end & I think they need a few more weeks at least, but I may be just kidding myself, thinking they're gonna double in size.
I'm gonna use ripen for the final 2 weeks with a 48h flash clean before & after, so should I start now or wait for more amber trichomes?

Revegged plant bloomingThis Mochi plant recovered from revegging and went straight to bloom. Plant size is relatively small but I have fed it well, the flowers seem to be growing slowly (5th week). Some trichomes on the apical flowers seem to be turning amber. Should I wait for few more weeks?

Actuellement, j'explore les merveilles de la gamme Terra Aquatica, apportant à mes plantes 50% des nutriments préconisés dans un sol Biobizz AllMix. Mes petites pousses sont en pleine phase d'étirement, et je me demande si augmenter les nutriments à 75% ou même 100% soit bien ?

Are these males?Are these clones turned male? I cannot tell. They are clones from nice well established mom. They are, and have been very weak and not really doing much for weeks as I've paid much more attention to mom. Should I ax these? Don't have seed room.

Gorilla Glue Auto - Lots of small budsHi Everyone
Currently growing my first plant - Gorilla Glue Auto using Spider Farmer SF1000.
Hoping someone can give me insight into why there are so many small bud sites & why they aren't getting any fatter. Or should I be removing all but a few?
Currently week 6 since sprouting
