I do so. " when I think she's almost ready, when any bullshit you can commit can no longer do damage, start to pluck away fan and sugar leaves " I much prefer to pluck 2/3 leaves a day continuously.

Can male flowers pollinate buds that have been already harvested? I've had to cull a couple of plants because they are hermies and I'm worried that pollen from the male flowers will pollinate female buds when I use the same drying rack, is this possible?Week 15

Now after 11 days the roots show on the bottom of 1 of my 1L airpots, the plant is only 4-5cm high, so i assume the pot can't be fully rooted, but the roots already show on the bottom...
My question is: when should i repot into my final 12l airpot?Week 2

Referring to the last 4 photos: I think I could have removed many more leaves, but I wanted to ask you if I should or not.
Referring in particular to the last two photos: what should I do with these little stems for a proper defoliation/lollipopping? Leave them or chop them off?Week 8

All my readings and studies makes me believe she’s a female because of the white hair (pistils) around the top. Since I’m a newbie can someone take a look at the pics and let me know for sure? Also, how can I know if a plant is an hermie? It shows both sexes next to each other?Week 1
