answered grow question 5y ago
I wouldn't defoliate autos at all the stress can slow them down and if you have the room just let them be that way they tend to yield well :)

Less leaves = less energy being made = less growth. It is that simple! If the plant did not need those leaves, it would not have grown them in the first place!

Help!? Final weeks. Revegging and foxtailing?
Last week before final flush. Everything is looking pretty cloudy and was looking great. I must've had a light leak and I think my plant is starting to reveg. I'm pretty new and have never seen a reveg. must've had a light leak. Is this reveg? Should I chop to salvage?

Burnt pistils or just natural colour change?
Are my pistils burning? I think they are just changing colour naturally but wanted to get a second opinion. They are around 12 inches away from my 300w LED and even some of the lower pistils which are under some foliage appear to be the same.. Should I be worried?

How long until harvest?
How long do y'all think it'll take for them to finish flowering? I didn't expect them to finish in 9-10 weeks like the breeder says but also didn't expect them to take so long...I'm thinking 4-5 weeks to go, totaling 13-14 weeks. What do you think?

still no crystals in week 7
So with the Ginger Punch A there seems to be an issue since she isn't producing any crystals compared to the others(which have a lot) and she is way more advanced when it comes to growth. Any suggestions?

Foxtailing? What do I do?
Is she foxtailing? Do I harvest now? Her guide is 56-60 days and she’s on day 67. Seems like her pistols have turned amber and turned in and her trichomes are cloudy but these new growths I wasn’t sure if she was ready or foxtailing. Do I harvest her now?

Slow bud development?
I’m now on day 58 and she seems to have frozen on bud development. I’m unsure if this is down to needing a water with plain water As I’ve got some yellow tips or if my light just isn’t good enough for her to develop properly. Thanks and happy growing!
