Should I remove these leaves? Only the ones with the worst signs of the Deficiency?
grestgrownoobiestarted grow question 2 years ago
Basically I’m going throw a calcium deficiency in week 7 of flower, feel like I’ve already fixed the issue by flushing with pH balanced water and reading the right nutes to the medium. Overall should I trim these fan leaves with deficiencies? And does my plant look good?

The really bad ones, that look like they are dying back yeah, but if they just a bit yellow ish then leave em a bit longer. Plants do store nutes in leaves too, and as they die back the plant takes the nutes back and puts em to use, say into building buds. So I like to leave the leaves on as long as possible, but the second they look like they may be actually dying and at risk of picking up mold - I snip em off.
Organomananswered grow question 2 years ago
No need to trim them, just remove them when they finally go yellow. Until then they are still making energy for your plant to use for making those buds.
Just remember, less leaves = less energy being made = less growth.
It really is that simple!
Hope this helps, Organoman.

I would trim a few out for better air and light. And add a little more potassium as well to feed. Would be what I would do. 🌱👍

You dont have to until they shrivel up and turn brown. The plant will pull all of the nutrients out of them as they die. Defoliation is only needed to open light to budsites or increase airflow

Nitrogen Toxicity?Not sure if this is nitrogen toxicity or normal leaf color. Crinkling was caused by too much light and the fan. Got better in 24h after adjusting grow light and fan. Plants are starting week 2 of veg, Hulkberry Auto. Medium is light mix soil.

Northern Lights Auto, quite short and bushy, fan leaves shielding light - should I defoliate?First time grower with a quite short Northern Lights Auto in week 6. The fan leaves seem to shield a lot of light from the inner leaves, also touching ground. Should I trim the fan leaves? Or should I keep them, since it already seems stressed enough for it's short life…

Contest curiosityFor those who have experience in contests:
How do they work? I assumed that a 2 week timer that runs out would result in someone winning lol. Isn’t that why the timer is there or am I an idiot? I feel like it should be specified somewhere if not to prevent confusion for new ppl

Question regarding humidityCurrently, the humidity in my tent is ~55%. The plants are in the early flowering stage, so I am worried about mold. Does anyone know if the humidity is too high or can provide a solution without an electric dehumidifier?
