If your nutrient solution has a red tint to it I would put it down to that. Good luck

Is it Hermaphrodite?
Hello ! I've been growing this small gg#4 auto of a random breeder only with natural sun (my home's window) just for fun. She has some sacks with some pistols as you can see in the picture. It's in the 10th month already in a really small pot. Is it hermaphrodite?

Flower trimming
I've got several lower branches that aren't stretching high enough to get any good light, at what point during flower is it ok to get out the scissors? I think I might need to do a lil leaf trimming in the lower canopy as well. Could/should this be done at the same time? Thanks

How realistic is growing in an apartment??? FOR APARTMENT DWELLERS ONLY... I will be moving into an apartment for the first time ever in July.
I have been growing for the past two years, and plan to do so even in my apartment. It is a fully legal state. How realistic is this? I will be running a carbon filter, but the tent still smells terrible when opened to refill humidifiers, etc. Have you had any issues with this?

Can my photoperiod plant have 24/7 lights during the veg phase?
I'm growing 2 ILGM autoflowers and one random bag seed. I'm focusing on the auto's, so the light is on 24/7. I'm assuming the bag seed is a photo, if it is - will this extended light exposure negatively affect it during the veg phase? Should I give up on it altogether?
