Pruning dilemma I am noticing that some leaves are turning yellow at the very bottom of some plants, I think that there is not enough light coming through. So my question is (I did only LST and FIM --> on the main branch on every plant) should I start to prune some branches to empower top part?

Hi everyone, I need some advice here. I am currently using a 200W dual spectrum CFL for Vegatation however I know that I will require a more powerful setup for flowering, if I want to get a good yield from all 3 plants. Can anyone tell me what would be better, HPS or LED?

With autoflowers, at what point do you switch from metal halide to high pressure sodium lights? When the pistils first show or when you actually start to see budlets?

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?

Hi, I have a garden I can grow in but to give them more light I put them in my basement each night and hit them all night with 1000w LED. I believe sunlight is much better than any light. So... is what I'm doing okay or wise? Or should I just leave them indoors under the LED?
