Defoliation
Zark002started grow question 4y ago
Hey guys, it's been 2 days since I did the topping pruning and I'm not sure if I should do some defoliation because my plant is very robust and low, I have the impression that the larger leaves on top are getting in the way, but I'm a beginner, I'm not sure , can help?

I live in a terraced house facing East so my front windows get the am sunshine and my garden and rear windows get the pm. When she is old enough I will move her into the greenhouse and she will get about 4/5 hours of direct sunlight. Is this sufficient for an autoflower?Week 1

Whats up everybody! I'm interested in your favorite automatic indoor watering system. I want something that can do top watering drain-to-waste in not too long of a time span - no slow continuous drips (no blumat etc). Any ideas welcome, prefer DIY! Even water distribution is keyWeek 4

Defloation in flowerFrom looking at my picture does it look like I have defloated to much. I did clear anything below net cause looking for those big colas. Does my plant look to be on right track? Should I stop or continue defloating? If yes in what week of flowering should I stopWeek 7

Referring to last photo (week 12), she is having weird behaviour: some leaves showing N deficiency (probably normal in this stage) but others are showing some kind of toxicity (?). Also can look like K deficiency, but it would be strange cause I'm pumping it in. What could it be?Week 12

I've heard a lot of back and fourth whether you should, or should not use plant protectors (bugs,mold, etc) during flower period. I just want to know what is and what is not ok to give your plants during flower, assuming that the plant in question is in fact healthy.
Thanx guysWeek 7
