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.

When should I begin the flushing process for my OG Glueberry Auto? Normally it would be starting 2 weeks prior to harvest. Is that still applicable to Auto strain? Do they need two weeks of flushing, or will one week suffice?

LST or leave them be?Should I Low stress train these girls? I have never grown autos and I am very afraid to stun them. They are ripping fast through water, temperatures are high so they are producing a lot of sugars. I defoliated the fan leaves of #3 in the hope it will grow a bit faster.

Should I remove these leaves? Only the ones with the worst signs of the Deficiency?Basically I’m going throw a calcium deficiency in week 7 of flower, feel like I’ve already fixed the issue by flushing with pH balanced water and reading the right nutes to the medium. Overall should I trim these fan leaves with deficiencies? And does my plant look good?

I have read online that this strain White Fire Og need more Nitrogen then other strains. During veg fase it was easy to solve this just added extra grow feeding and its getting that extra Nitrogen. But now in flower fase how should I solve the N. And what ratio can I mix feeding?

Plant is growing slow, maybe I'm wrong but I don't see a lot of difference since the flowering kicked in. Not as big as I expected. Looks very healthy and no problems but not a lot of evolution. She didn't get much sunlight the last 2 weeks so that's one major cause I suppose.

Pruning?Pruning ideas along the stems? Was thinking that some of the branches at the bottom that may never get over the lid of the pot should be snipped off. Also, good idea to keep blue/red light shining under the canopy?
