LST trim??
TheProfessorGrows
started grow question 4y ago
Things are getting a bit cramped with my LST. Some fan leaves are buried under others or are on the ground. Should I trim some lower fan leaves to give it room to breathe? Or should I let it rock as long as they are not blocking any light?

Yea, go ahead and do some defoliation so the plant can breathe, it won't hurt it at all, just don't take too much off.

Stickstoffüberschuss?
I have a problem with my auto that it's hardly growing in height, and there are spots on one leaf. But I have the feeling that the other leaves are also too dark? Maybe it's not growing anymore because of a nitrogen surplus? Should I water it without fertilizer for now?

Should I try to further defoliate in the middle and lower parts of the plants to let more light to all budding sites? The plants are extremely bushy and it is difficult to reach into the middle to remove leaves.

Do I need to trim more?
Do I need to trim more? This is my first successful attempt, 2nd grow ever. First was a disaster (this one too, almost.) I am petrified that I trimmed too much. But - when I see others plants, I'm questioning if I actually need to do more. Thank you in advance!

Mutation mit doppelte Triebe, hatte das schonmal jemand? Und wie entwickelt sie sich weiter? Hoffe mann versteht was ich meine.
Hi, in many years of growing, I have never had such a mutation. With my membrane, it looks like after topping, the upper 2 shoots have formed double, so 2 are stuck together, hope you understand what I mean. Has anyone experienced this before?

Excessive leaf growth during flowering
I am growing two autos (Orange Punch and Lemon Kix, both by Dutch Passion) side by side under a single 2000W Phlizon LED. Both are in week 8. The LK looks fantastic. The OP is starting to develop a lot of leaves now. This happened to my previous Orange Bud Auto as well. Why?

Possible Over Watering. Can I get an experts look?
My plants leaves are looking droopy and condensed. I am worried that I may be watering them too much. I water them with a gallon of water every 3 days with 3 teaspoons of "Grow Big" added and mixed into the water pot. Do they look normal for a 4 week old plant?
