LST trim??
TheProfessorGrowsstarted grow question 3y 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.

Should I be looking at more defoliation on my plants? I am ending the first week of flower and already they seem crazy bushy. I know its not recommended in flower but I feel like I have a lot of fan leaves that may be in the way of bud sites. Let me know if you need more pics.Week 9

Hi i know its early stages but the leaves on this plant are all twisted and bent out of shape. On top of this theres a white vein going through the middle of the leaves and the stem is generally very weak and nearly collapses with little air circulation. What should i do?Week 2

The leaf twisting and contorting i'm seeing in the first set of true leaves; is that due to incorrect PH(my tap water has 7.7 ph)? Also the discoloration on my 4AM #3's second set of true leaves(only one has the discoloration), can anyone tell me what that is? Is it bad?Week 2

What to do with the leaves? Let them grow or use a specific method to grow?My baby is finally starting to grow and expand fast. I'm unsure what the best thing to do is with the leaves, as there seem to be so many. Should I take down some leaves? Should I leave them? It's the first time growing in such a small tent and a auto.Week 5

Should I be concerned about the "hole" damage in "White Widow - Day 28 - Damage"? No bugs, checked everything. I've read that this type of damage can be a consequence of microtopping, which I've recently done. Other than this leaf, the plant is very healthy.Week 4
