Hello 😉 when the plant has developed its first 5 or 6 nodes.It is important to note that this technique always applies to a growing plant, never to flowering plants.

Will be flushing the coco plants soon and was wondering if it is a good idea to add molasses to the fresh water when flushing or should I keep it plain PH water?

To prune or not to prune?
I've been getting mixed opinions on pruning at this stage. Should I remove the bottom most baby leaves of my plant? This is Day 21 of an Auto. Should I be removing the most bottom set of fan leaves? Should I wait? Should I leave em? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Could I move an outdoor plant into a garage if temps drop significantly outside? I understand bugs are a concern moving an outdoor plant inside, but wondered if a garage with lighting would be a viable option (and anything else I should consider if I move her)

I’m a bit unsure, re: bubblicious, do you think i should fim or top or leave them at this point? as they are pretty squat also do you think putting the full spectrum lighting on now is ok as i have done? i figured as its auto it wouldn’t make a difference, more light more growth.

We were planning on using FOX Farm trio (Big Bloom , Grow Big(liquid plant version) and Tiger Bloom as nutrients but found out that they might not be a good idea in mix with Canna Coco Pro medium. Do you think we should change to other nutrients like Canna ones?
