Hello without photo it is hard to say if you defoliate too much but don't forget that leaves are solar panels of your plant and also a reserve of energy for your plant so when you defoliate try to not defoliate so much. Just cut burn leaves or leaves which make shadow above bud sites. Hope i helped you. Bye

It took me a long time to put the seed in the vase. Should I take any special care? Will I have any issues?I germinated a Gorilla Glue Faster and I received a recommendation to plant it in the felt pot, I bought it and it only arrived today and when I went to plant it it had gotten rid of the bark and had 2 small leaves forming.

Are these lower branches a waste of energy/ are they good for clones?Hi all.
I’m on my first grow and I have these lower branches on each of my plants and I do not think they will be sufficient in creating buds as they are behind the rest of my canopy and most likely are draining energy.
Should I cull them and can they be used as clones?
ThanksWeek 6
