started grow question 5y ago
I've seen that some growers trim the tips of the leaves. At what stage and for what purpose is this done?

answered grow question 5y ago
This is done to stop the leaves growing any bigger. Mainly the practice is used in cloning when trying to get the clones to root and concentrate on producing new growth. Good luck bro 💪

Leave spot burn
I fed my 3 week autos yesterday a compost tea of living soil with molasses. And I noticed some spots. Maybe it was too soon? Light is too close? I’m not too concerned since it’s just one and the rest of the plant looks great to me.

Too late for another trimming ?
Show I do another trimming ? Most of the big upper leaves started having trychromes at their base so I am not sure if I should trim again at this stage. Currently in the 7/8th week. I already trimmed twice during vegetation and beggining of flowering.

Rust spots on leaves
Hey guys, please help me identify the cause of these rust spots on leaves. Seems to progress in last couple of days(spread). Might this be a light/heat burn? Or some nute def? I added CalMag on previous feeding. Distance to light is 32cm currently.

Fan leaf finger progression
I read somewhere that a healthy plant should increase fingers with each set of leaves. Wendy had two 3 fingered leaves, one of which wasn’t clearly defined. The next set of leaves look to have one with 4 fingers and one with 3. Should I be worried? Does she look healthy?

Leaf spots
Hi guys. These spots have formed on the lower leaves. Is it a cal-mag deficit or maybe is it due to strong airflow? Also, are they already big enough to switch to 12/12 light or give them another week? Thanks!

Nutrient problem?
Hi growers not sure what this is as it's only on a few leaves but a few brown spots have appeared and I have quite a few purple stems, don't no if it's a strain trait or if it's phos deficiency or something else, any advice would be welcome, growing in live organic soil.
