Remove fans leaves in flower

Xamberstarted grow question 2y ago

I think I should have taken more fan leaves earlier. Is it too late for the 5 week of flower to remove yellow leaves from bottom? Thanks

Yellow leaves near the bottom should be OK to remove. If yellow the plant has already scavenged the leaf for the nutrients it needs and the leaf probably isn't providing a useful contribution to the plant.

Kann evtl. jemand helfen ?Hallo zusammen. Das ist der erste Grow von meinem besten Kumpel. Dort läuft einiges schief und langsam bin ich auch mit meinem Latein am Ende. Er hatte über 3 Wochen nachts unterirdische Werte der RLF wonach die Pflanzen eh schon geschädigt waren. Kann evtl. jemand helfen ?

Pruning fan leaves I'd appreciate any thoughts on when it would be OK to prune out just the mammoth fan leaves that shade the node spots lower down. They're like friggin' umbrellas. When, if it all, would it be safe to do so?

More defoliating?I keep on asking this question a lot but with my lemon 2 the bushy one should I leave her as she is and tuck leaves away allowing light to bud sites or do you think I should do some defoliating as there are just so many leaves!

Shall I defoliate again?I defoliated heavily starting week 6, but now 5 days later it's getting pretty dense again. Shall I do another round or would it stress her out and mess with her photosynthesis? Please see diary for the progress.

Plant not flowering After 13 weeks this lady is not flowering- every time I see the new growth it just develops into more leaves! She has also streched massively over the last 4 weeks as if she's just about to flower but nothing. She was a free auto seed I got but seems like she's a dud?

Weird growth This plant keeps growing in a weird way, the main stem is not straight and the new stems are not symmetric as normal. I've had similar growth problems on beginning of my other Blue Bullet grow, can this be only genetic problems?

To Pune or install Support Netting At day 47 I've noticed a significant increase in bud formation. I'm worried about light pen and support. Im running 3 plants in a 4x4 area. Should I install a net like a late Sea of Green growing style to help spread buds out for light pen and support when heavy or thin her out?

Defoliate the center or leave her alone?My girl is short and dense due to early manifolding and LST. The center is crowded and there's not much light penetration or air flow there, though I do have fans going. I'm tempted to defoliate some older leaves crowding the center. Don't want to stunt it, though. Thoughts?

My seedling has grown three nodes so far. Why does my plant only have one fan leaf with 3 leaves on the second node, and two fan leaves with 3 leaves on the third node? Shouldn't both the leaves on the second node have 3 leaves and both the leaves on the third node have 5 leaves
