Hi there, short answer : yes! This will retain humidity and help to keep a warm soil. Highly recommended when growing outside! Keep up the good work, your setup is beautiful! I'll be around, good luck ;-)

Is it too late for more defoliation
Is it too late for more heavy defoliation? Last Sunday I did a lot of trimming and thought I'd over done it, now I realise I didn't do nearly enough. She's switched to flower and I was going to change to bloom nutrients today. Thanks guys

Cheers guys I put them into flower soon after your advice. From research this strain doesn't normally stretch much normally around meter tall so I'm hoping I should be happily within my limits. Should i feed full strength half strength just water cycle?? Thanks for advice

Flowering Defoliation Question
Hey All, I have been pulling the small leaves out of the buds when they get long enough to pluck from their stem, so I dont damage the buds. In order to open up more light to the actual buds, should I put a pair scissors to these leaves? Or leave tops bushy?
