DILLIGAFanswered grow question 5 years ago
@Growyo Hi mate I like start one week after germination with a quarter strength Mix of some root booster like
seaweed/kelp and a nutrient mix suited for the vegetative stage ie more nitrogen than P+K.
It is especcially important not to overwater as your roots need oxygen just like us and too much water can inhibit
the plants ability to breath Hope this helps mate and anything you else feel free to send me a message and i will
do my best to provide an answer Good luck

When the plant has between 2 to 4 leaves and 10 to 15cm. +- 15 days on the soil do veg nutrients (I use Bio-Grow of BioBizz).
And when pass to flower u need Bloom nutrients. (I use Bio-Bloom of BioBizz too).
That 2 is the base bro 👍
Good Grows 👌

You should start now with a light feed about 1/4 of the recommended dose. It all depends on where you reside to know the available nutrients in your area. Advance nutrients is a well known and reputable brand. I currently tried green planet nutrients 2 part which comes with everything you need from Veg to Flower. Go to a local hydro store and you'll see what's available and the guys there usually can provide you with a lot of information that you can research on here and ask growers question as you go along. Best of luck.

To defoliate or not (auto flower flowering stage)?Hi All,
As per the title, the plant looks great to me (week 9), but I do wonder whether I should defoliate? I'm running 200w of LEDs for the one plant so no shortage of light. I realise 200w is rather over the top based on the daily light integral.
Thoughts?

When is a good time to start pruning?When is a good time to start pruning? She is about 10 inches tall and is short and VERY bushy. Has several leaves hidden from light and so I am thinking of pruning today. However I don't want to do it too soon. So far my pruning has been VERY minimal. Thoughts?

General questions about my growBased on week 5 of my grow, does it sound like I'm on track with nutrients? Any advice on LST or defoliation? The plants struggled since I planted them so I wary of stressing them out. The only thing I'm doing at this point is tucking the leaves so the bud sites get more light.a year ago

I defoliated and removed lower, small, shaded bud sites during the first 3 days of flower. Was it a bad move considering the plant is bushy as heck and hasn’t stretched yet? Left about 25 « tops » (2 actual main colas) with some growth right underneath. Did I hurt my future yield

Defoliation of bushy plant during week 1 floweringI flipped my girls to flower 5 days ago and been lightly defoliating the big one (top right) over the last 4 days (plucking lower fan leaves and those blocking bud sites from the light, about 10 leaves a session) Was it a bad move considering I already flipped to flower?

LollipoppingThe plant on the right is growing colas on top of colas and isn’t stopping. Some of the bottom ones are pretty large but haven’t been able to make it up through to the rest. Should I do some serious lollipop and get rid of all the bottom grow no matter how big it is?

To Defol or Not to Defol? That is the question.Week 10 question for Wedding Glue.
I know there is a lot of controversy over trimming autoflowers. Let's say it's semi safe. She's super bushy again. Should I do another defoliation? OR wait another few days? I'm worried about timing. I have very little left. Thanks all!

Defoliate now?I normally don't ask more than one question a week, but I believe I'm at a critical point with my wedding glue. She hasn't grown at all in the last 2 days at 14.5". I haven't defoliated yet because of stretch, but I think she's done. Should I defoliate or wait a few more days?

Just Stopped Stretch! - Gotta Do, What I Gotta Do?Against protocol I have hacked on this plant in Week 8. Way branchy! I got into pruning a dozen long scraggly lower runners. I could take out another 12+ wimpy branches easy and open it up good bit for light/air - and then leave it alone? Much anticipated waste, so gamble?Week 8
