SirDilltonstarted grow question 7y ago
How do you guys check your trichomes? What % of amber do you have? Do check for milky/amber on the leaves or the bud itself? I have a microscope but it’s very hard to use unless I trim a little piece of bud or leaf off and inspect it on a table with my microscope.

Shoot for a 5 to 20% amber the rest milky white depends on how you like your high. Always inspect buds themselves ignore the leaves. There is nothing wrong with cutting a little piece to get a better view will not hurt plant one bit.

Gentlemen and ladies, what do you think about gently trimming the leaves to expose the lower growth? Day 36. So far, there are no signs of deficiencies or overfeeding. Maybe you could suggest what else to do to maximize the yield. I would be very grateful for any response.

Defoliation of bushy plant during week 1 floweringI flipped my girls to flower 5 days ago and been lightly defoliating the big one (top right) over the last 4 days (plucking lower fan leaves and those blocking bud sites from the light, about 10 leaves a session) Was it a bad move considering I already flipped to flower?

I'm looking for more taste than quantity in these beautiful plants. I was able to read that by stressing them a bit (LST or other techniques), it brought out more the terpenes of the plants. What do you think ? Do you have techniques to have a better taste ?Week 5

Too late to defoliate?Should i try to defoliate these two auto girls a little more, or is it too late into flowering?
If so, which leaves are safe to remove?
They are approximately 45 days from sprout and have been speeding through their fases, so it's been hard to compare to others schedules

Autoflower foliage trimHey all, im on my 4th week of flower (kind of stunted my grow in veg a bit so she stayed in veg for longer)

I flipped the lights to 12/12 seven days ago, 14 days in to the life of the CBD babies. Is this too soon? Yesterday I changed to 11hrs on 13hrs off, because I was expecting a lot more growth in the last seven days. Am I being too eager after not growing a Photoperiod in a while?Week 3
