Philindicusanswered grow question 5 years ago
Yes ,the most opinionated question on GD. How does each grower figure or count the age of their plants. I personally call day 1 when I see the first set of serrated leaves in between the cotyledon starting to emerge. Some start day 1 when the seeds break the surface of the soil. Others go by when the cotyledon open and drop the seed shell. So the official spread is about a difference of 3 to 4 days depending on the strain and temperature. It would be nice to have a uniform count that every one uses but don't forget your dealing with a bunch of stoners so that figures in to the equation. 😂

I consider week 1 to start once the plant has actually sprouted. It really doesn't matter too much one way or the other, but before sprout theres really not much going on that would be worth recording before sprout.

Remove leaves from auto?Should I remove fan leaves from my auto flower? I wonder since it is so crowded, I worry a bit that the leaves are pressing against the buds. But maybe that isn't a problem? I've read that removing leaves is unnecessary and stressful for the plant.

Defoliation late in flower on Auto'sI like to defoilate, If I were to pick majority of the fan leaves off of these plants being Auto's, will they react or stress too much? I like to defoil near the end of flower to really push all the focus to the budsites. Happy Growing!3 months ago

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…

So many leaves! Should I defoliate even more?I defoliated just before and even during the first week of flowering, but she keeps growing so many leaves even during the second week of flowering.
Should I defoliate right now or wait a couple of weeks? I worry I could halt the flowering or cause even more useless stress...
