answered grow question 4y ago
about 1/8 to 1/4 a flowering plant. Best to look at your lights suggestions for seedlings. Some are 24" other can be 30", can even have some at 15" but dimmed down. Good Luck!

What week of flower should I stop IPM spray treatment?
What week of flower should I stop spraying the plants with IPM? I dim the lights one morning a week and spray using BAS EM5, Coconut Powder, and Quillaja wetting agent. I haven't seen any pests, almost halfway done at day 29. Last spray was day 24, next spray is planned day 31.

Bugs to eat bugs
Anyone else go to this extreme?!? My problem is still small but it's still a problem. I was going to chuck everything and clean the space properly...did that. But they're still on the plant. Sell in bulk of 1000, so outdoor 1s the only choice.

Help with sex of plants. Regular seeds, not fem.
I’m concerned on the sex of a couple of plants I have. I diagnosed a couple as male last week and removed them, about 4-5 weeks old. This week I am noticing growth in the others and am concerned so looking for experienced input. 1&2 appear to be female to me with calyx open? 3 M?

Big green blisters lol

If using organic nutrients & no need to flush a plant, is it still better to do so or, will it be just as good without ?

Autoflower week 9, not flowering
So what should I do, there's no signs of switching in week 9! I've tried changing to 18/6 lighting, but have only been running it for a couple of days. Besides that she is really droopy and the soil feels really hard (maybe lots of roots). Any advice is appreciated :)

Showing sex/Pre-flower query
Hi, I'm still a beginner so I'm having a little battle in my own head about this. Am I right in thinking as long as these girls have shown sex on a 20/4 light schedule they will start to flower soon? Also, Photos require 12/12 to show sex right? Thanks in advance.

Should I continue with defoliation ?
Hey guys, I wanted to get your opinion on further defoliation. I don't have much experience in growing, especially in defoliation, lst and other techniques. Should I continue with a light defoliation only to uncover the bud spots. All opinions are welcome. Thanks!

side branching on manifolds mains
Hi guys, Just a quick one regarding side branches. setup my manifold with 8 mains, but theres quite a bit of side branching occuring off these mains. Should I leave them or remove them? Beneficial or harmful to yield? More colas should mean more bud I'm guessing.
