To be honest I do ot all at the same time and take more leaves off then I should but can just leave to recover a bit longer if photo seeds. I'm not saying follow my advice though 🤣

I have 2 seedlings in FFOF that are 2 weeks old and struggling! I might have overwatered and caused nute lock? They are green, just not growing. Their sister in expert gardener is on the same water schedule and is double the size. Do I just let them get bone dry and then flush?

Best way to tell when harvest ready. 2 were planted at same time but experience different major stresses and stunting. They seem to be growing at different sched as flowering is around week behind the other. Does early stress affect auto flower " clock "

I'm trying to find some information on whether or not we should keep the plant in 24-72 hours of darkness before harvest. Some people say yes, some say no, I was wondering what the community thought and practiced.
