I would do mote of a selection trimming and pruning. You go too much and will change your results for less yield

It's totally up to you lots of growers strip the bottom smaller branches off it will ensure everything is getting to the bigger buds rather than the plant using energy on the lower smaller buds also remove any leaves blocking out light ππ

Here is a question for the masters of ganja!! Do you believe the fact that i keep her height as low as 10cm can turn against me in terms of lower harvest or any other issues?? Drop me your thoughts, please!! <3 xx

To top again? Or not to top again? That is the question. I'm working in a 2x4x5 tent so my height is limited. Not sure if I should flip now, or top the two mains again and flip at the end of this week? First photo grow so this is just one of many. Thanks fellow growers!

Wondering when everyone starts lst on their autos? Debating to train or let her do her thing. I was think between day 21 and 28 to start manipulating the growth a little bit, super careful not to stress her at all.

I have germinated some auto seeds and started sitting them outside but I want to move them inside to a grow tent and grow them there. Is there a problem with starting plants outside then moving them under led lighting for the veg/bloom? Anything you need to watch out for?

Leaf and growth removal
Iβm always so cautious about growth and leaf removal. I always leave to much to late into flower and then get scared to remove it after. Would it be wise to start removing now end of week 4 beginning of week 5? Or should I leave the smaller struggling growth and larger leaves?

I have a little issue. I did a pretty heavy defoliation today before watering, and one of my two babies is showing signs of stress. Do you think itβs serious? What should I do? (The one on the right!) Thank you for your help!

Is it time for light defoliation?
These plants are all 4 almost 5 weeks since seed. Top leaves on the large one at the back are shadowing those beneath it. A couple leaves at the bottom are extremely limp due to not receiving enough light. Is it time for a light defoliation? How do I distinguish which leaves?

I've noticed some pistils starting to turn on the upper bud sites, see the last photo above. My question is, is this ok only 2 weeks in to flower, or have I burnt the pistils with feeding, or lights? It's my first grow, so I'm trying to learn as much as I can. Thanks!!

SCROG in 2.5 weeks Flower - Thin out the canopy or not?
Its my first SCROG grow. I am 19 days into flower and there is still a tiny bit of stretch still. Should I thin out the canopy or leave it alone and let it finish as-is? I don't want to stunt their bud development. What do you think, are they too crowded?

How long do I have to flush my organic garden? Last time I flushed it 4 weeks, but I was using dry amendments. Now I'm using a mix of organic dry amendments and liquid marine-based organic fertilizer. In week 3 of flower, last run they were ready at week 7. Day of last feed?π

Should I cut fan leaves (autoflowering)?
I have this Dinafem auto (first grow ever). A friend told me to cut all the fan leaves and bottom branches. His claim is that the buds that these branches yield are too small and it is more productive to make the plant focus its energy on the top buds. What do you think? Thanks!
