Defoliation question
Jmaninthemidde420started grow question 3y ago
Is it safe to do any further defoliation on this plant it is strawberry pie auto by fast bud? It’s exactly 4 weeks old now and has been flowering for about 4-5 days now. I’m also afraid to do any lst bc of how thick the stalk is. Also why isn’t anyone comenting or likingthisdiary

Hey Growmie,
It is safe to do more defoliation, but after looking at your diary, you really don't need it yet, so I would wait on that, as far as the LST, if the stalk is already thick and stiff, I wouldn't try bending it, because it will snap. Also, I commented on and liked your diary. Lol. Happy Growing

I don't think it's flowering quite yet. It looks more like it is showing it's sex(pre-flower). But, honestly, I'm growing my first Autoflower right now and it's about as old as this plant is. So, take that with a grain of salt.
Anyway.
It's fine to do low stress training at any point in time, really. Sometimes you have to do a serious branch bend over time, but other than that, get weird with it.
Good luck, growmie.

Remove leafs(defoliation) and new shoots?After 7weeks and 3days of vegetation. And some LST.
Should I remove the large leaves and the new shoots that are coming off the branch from each topbud? (For the purpose of entering more light and those "topbuds" reach the correct level)5y ago

Is it too much, or enough defoliation?Would be good to hear your thoughts on this.
Personally, I keep doing this and think I have positive results by creating multiple branches with equal distance to each other. (I pluck one stem then leave the next and go on like this.)
Thanks,

Aplicar defoliación??Veo que ya tienen muchas hojas.
¿Me recomendáis una defoliación?
No me atrevo, ya que no quiero extresarlas mucho y frenar el crecimiento en ésta última semana, aunque creo sería bueno para que penetre mejor la luz.
¿O bajo mejor un poco el foco?

I've just impulsively purchased 2 x 120w Quantum Board from Alibaba and it should arrive within the next 18 days. When that happens, the girls will be a good few weeks into flower. Should I upgrade the lights in the tent as soon as they arrive or wait until the next grow? TaWeek 9

One of the three plants in the 5 gallon DWC is almost ready, a good 2-3 weeks before the others. I assume I have no choice but to flush the entire tub with plain water for a week before harvest. I will then need to resume nutrients for the other two; good or bad idea?Week 6

How much of a difference does adding CO2 make to your yield? Is it worth the added cost and effort per gram of finished cured flower? Or is it only worth it if you have a full time commercial scale grow with full control of your grow environment?Week 3
