Hi fellow growers! Iβm concerned growth is still exceptionally slow. All variables are remaining consistent, there arenβt big drops in temperature, ph is correct etc. Iβm only watering every 4 days or so, should I be doing anything different?

Most of my focus so far has been growing. Any harvesting/curing/hash recipes/tips out there aside from dark and cool? I know whiskey mellows with age. Are there methods that affect or enhance taste and smoothness?

Defoliation late in flower on Auto's
I like to defoilate, If I were to pick majority of the fan leaves off of these plants being Auto's, will they react or stress too much? I like to defoil near the end of flower to really push all the focus to the budsites. Happy Growing!

Asking all the Green Buzz Liquid growers: What experience did you make with clean fruits? Is it required to use clean fruits with flushing or is it okay just to water the girls with that additive without producing drain? I mean, normally no need to flush organic nutes, right? π
