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!

Is this salvageable? I was harvesting today, and one branch had previously snapped, so it's dryer than it should be. Wondering if I should put in a plastic bag.

Flowering/Preflowering/Showing sex in Vegative Stage?
Hey, Today I noticed all my outdoor plants have pistils after being 3-5weeks outside. Is this normal and will they continue veg due to increasing days/temps? Also, could this be reversed with additional light? Currently in the 7th week of Spring with 14h light and 13h sunrise.

Hermaphroditism?
Hi everyone, sorry super beginner here. My plant is developing flowers that I can not determine if male or female. Is this a sign of hermies? Or just normal female flowers 🤷♂️ Hope the picture can help

How to know if a plant has dried sufficiently to cure
This is my 1st grow so I cut a node off a plant to experience the drying process before harvesting the whole plant. How will I know that it has dried sufficiently to cure? What should I be looking for? This has hung for 5 days in a shed already but it is 40°C and very humid here.

Answers based on personal experience if possible! Links to peer-reviewed science ALWAYS welcome 💪 AUTO only 🙌 TTH = Time visible veg To Harvest 1) Average TTH for 80%+ Sativas? 2) For Indicas? 3) Your opinion: Seed sellers incentivized by market to understate advertised TTH?

I’m into my 6th week of flower My caramel strain has started shooting off what I believe to be nanners. I noticed a few days ago and have been plucking them but am noticing more coming out. I’m sure I’ve missed some but m worried it may pollinate my other plant. Can it?
