Where to prune fan leaves?

CreatureCreatorstarted grow question 3y ago

Ok y'all, was hoping for a simple, hands off grow with just one topping early on. These babies have turned into dense bushes, and I want to defoliate the undercarriage a bit. Fan leaves are huge from the base to the top, so do I just prune out the lower, older fans?

Hello all, I am into organic or (natural at least) nutrients, I am wondering if there could be a 2 part resolution. Such as A- Fish Fertilizer 2-3-1 when veg and, B-liquid seaweed or seaweed powder 0-0-17 in flowering. And some of recharge. I don't want to buy colored H2O :)

Hey guys, I’ve seen some posts where the plant is of an auto flower type, where the growers have topped it. I’ve also heard from many people that if I top my autoflower it will cause stress and flower? Any help clarifying this? 🙈

Hi! 😏 Since i'm new here, my first and formost question is a safety matter. Are growers email-adresses inside this websites database encrypted while stored? So that if there would be a cyber attack of some sorts, they could not be ending up in the wrong hands. Great site, thanks

Mainline/Manifold: Trimming fan leaves after done with topping.Finishing up the topping portion of mainlining. P2 to be Nebula-Haze style and P3 to be Nugbuckets style. I'll be trimming growth tips other than from the 8 cola sites on each. Still keep un-shaded fan leaves below those levels? A lot online shows all lower fan leaves trimmed

Is peat moss good to use as a replacement for Coco coir or regular potting mix? I plan to add nutrients or amending my own soil if you will, but will peat moss work in a pinch?

I flipped the lights to 12/12 seven days ago, 14 days in to the life of the CBD babies. Is this too soon? Yesterday I changed to 11hrs on 13hrs off, because I was expecting a lot more growth in the last seven days. Am I being too eager after not growing a Photoperiod in a while?

Fast Buds recommend early doses of Cal Mag for the Zkittelz Auto and a heavier feeding regime - how early do we add Cal Mag and what strength nutes do we start at and go up to? Thank you in advance for any help or advice :)
