How should I judge this plant competition? First to finish? Weight? Both plants are same strain and started at the same time. Open to multiple category judgement. Thanks

It depende on what your priorities are: yield? Quality of the smoke? Harsh / smooth? Effect? Perhaps a point system on a diferentes categories?

I would go with how much one can produce out of a plant. Anybody can grow an ounce or two. I say the ones that can produce more.

All my readings and studies makes me believe she’s a female because of the white hair (pistils) around the top. Since I’m a newbie can someone take a look at the pics and let me know for sure? Also, how can I know if a plant is an hermie? It shows both sexes next to each other?

One of my plants is a much darker green then the other, is this nitrogen toxicity?, it’s still growing but it’s not filling out quite the same as my other plant

#3 had seeds at harvest (5). I don't know if she is a hermi or if one of my other plants is, or if my other plants were pollinated and I didn't notice. She did have a big injury earlier in the grow. Any ideas what happened? I'm so confused and disappointed!

Terpenator advocates! I'd like to start using it. Does it ONLY enhance the flavors? Or does terpenator have the ability to override the natural flavors of the cannabis with it's own? When should I start feeding my autos Terpenator?

Q1: I did a slight bit of “lillipopping”, cutting lower sun leaves and small energy wasting budsites. Along with this and slight bits of LST at this stage will it effect bud density for the better or worse? Q2: would a larger space now be worth the effort (1.5x1.5x2m tent)?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?

Clean them up or leave them alone
I’m having trouble deciding if I should just let these girls keep going how I have been because they are absolutely amazing or should I do a big clean up and the canopy and lower canopy to allow some more light to penetrate for some fuller nugs?

Regarding flushing, specifically in hydroponics - should you do 48 hours of darkness during last two days of flushing, and should you deprive plants of water before harvest? (if so, just drain basin?)

What could or should I do regarding trimming at this stage? Removing lower leaves or upper? My concern is that while healthy it is very dense, nodes are tight, and I think this might impact yield. 3ft would be my max height (6ft tent), and I will likely flip wk 7/8. Thank you!
