@Cpt_Gregorovich Hello mate contrary to popular opinion Air flow around the eventual buds is way more important than light penetration So I would remove a heap of the larger fan leaves thus allowing more air to get in and around the buds as they grow.
Do it now so as not to stress or set your ladies back too much Hope I helped answer this question and Happy growing 👍

Dam brother nice looking plants beautiful anyways ,I would only take off what is essentially taking light from a big hug that could use said light .so fan leaves that cover to much or even try tucking leaves a bit too... That being said they are nice good luck .. cheers from Canada..

Hi, I have a garden I can grow in but to give them more light I put them in my basement each night and hit them all night with 1000w LED. I believe sunlight is much better than any light. So... is what I'm doing okay or wise? Or should I just leave them indoors under the LED?Week 7

Do I need to trim more?Do I need to trim more?
This is my first successful attempt, 2nd grow ever. First was a disaster (this one too, almost.)
I am petrified that I trimmed too much. But - when I see others plants, I'm questioning if I actually need to do more. Thank you in advance!

My tent size is 120x90 (3x4). I use 2x Mars hydro sp250, would you run each at full power (total 460w) or should I dimm them to a total power of 400w (or maybe something else)?
*The question is what is the optimal power for the best results and not about a higher electric bill.*Week 10

When to harvest?
The pistil hairs are now starting to turn red(more so on 1) and I’ve begun looking at trichomes. More are cloudy than clear no real appearance of amber or red/brown in color. I have arbitrarily chosen day 80 as harvest because it falls on a weekend/no moon.Week 10

Trimming in flower?Thoughts on trimming in flower? I trimmed underneath and lightly defoliated the top about 2 weeks in to flower. I'm mid-way through week 5 now, not sure if I should just leave them or trim some lower larf. Not planning on touching fan leaves until final week before harvest.Week 9

Good evening,
When looking at the trichs under a microscope, I am noticing basically just clear or clear with red tips, and no cloudy trichs like my last grow.
I don't want to go much longer, the buds look great. Any ideas? Can I harvest part now and some later with autos?Week 11

Hi to all the happy gardeners out there. I've just been informed that i have been given three different strains. Is anyone keen on a guessing game. One is white widow, one is northern lights/ big bud, and i think it was somthing like afghan orange or somthing like that.😬Week 8

Is that a male pre-flower on that 5th picture? You can see 2 nodes there, lower node and upper node. Upper node is showing female pre-flowers, but what is that wee thing on the right half of the lower node? It's the stalk-y thing that confuses me.Week 10

Hi there!
I've gone and done some LST to my plants, you can see it pictured above.
Have I gone over the top with it and was it a bit late in starting? I'm also now thinking of lowering my 600w LED from 60 to 50/45cm for the now LSTed branches. Worth it?
CheersWeek 6
