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 ;-)

Hi, Some growers do this and its not a bad idea, of course you can. By ontop, I mean over the soil.

They are in 2 gallon pots right now. When should I switch them to 5 gallon? When should I start flower. I can get my light 2 inches away from the top of my tent and my tent is 6’7” tall.

At what point would you assume a seed will not germinate - I've read most will germinate within 3-5 days - but I'm curious when most people would bite the bullet and start a different seed? (This is not a concern yet - I'm only at 36 hours! I'm just impatient!)

I’m looking to get max PAR value(950) on my plants during flowering. My lights came with a grid that isn’t super specific. Question what are some very first signs of too much light for your plants And should I keep pushing the limit inch by inch to try and achieve maximum light?

Cutting or not cutting
Hi everyone, I’m not used to defoliation and I wanted to know if I should remove the yellowing leaves from my plant. I read lots of things with different kind of view so I’m at loss. The leaves are nutrient so why remove them? Thank you
