AbroCadabrostarted grow question 4 years ago
I'm about to finish week 8 of flower and one of my plants has hermied. Should I finish out week 9 before harvest or should I chop it now? Trichomes are all cloudy with only a few amber ones.

I would chop it. that is me. why? it hermie so no sense to keep that one going, you can still get medicine from it. you are almost there with the others and they look real tasty for sure, so chop the one and put the energy into the others

Hello to you my friend
Yes it is necessary to cut except and my farmer friends forgot to tell you if you did not rinse your plant 👍
Because your buds will have a terrible taste 😎
So even if your trichomes are amber before you must always rinse your plant otherwise you will do all this for nothing!
Rinse and harvest
May the strength be with you 💪

Hello AbroCadabro, I understand your problem.
If most of your trichomes are cloudy and turning amber i would recommend to cut them down.
Also if you have a hermie or male you should remove it as quick as possible unless u want your girls to polinate.
Hope this was an helpfull answer.
Keep on growing my friend. Peace 👍

@AbroCadabro Chop it down Now because if it self pollinates it'll only push the energy into producing seeds and not your buds so you wouldnt gain anything
by leaving it. Congrats on your harvest

Should I do a pre harvest defoliation a week before harvest?What are the benefits and consequences of defoliating a week before harvest? Is it good or bad? I have tons of foliage up top and need it to go away. It's too late in flower, but a week before will open up the canopy to the lower bud sites. Any and all help is welcome. Thanks!

I need a little help from an "old rabbit"..... nothing wild.7/8 day of bloom. I would like to know when to defoliate in bloom? Not at all at first? 2nd week? Every week? It gets very tight all around. So I would like to remove everything from the bottom that doesn't get light. Thanks in advance.

Trimming/Defoliation late vegetation, just before flip to 12/12?I'm unsure about trimming/defoliation at this point: What's the goal for just before switching to 12/12? I've read to veg until your height is 1/2 to 1/3 the final height supported by the setup. I seem to have plenty of room still. How much do I trim under the canopy?

How do I drop my RH down when nothing works? Check Diary. Will defoliation be a good idea? Open tent door and leave it open?My 2x2 is starting to crowd. This is driving the RH to over 70%. Should I defoliate to help with crowding and RH? Or should I just leave it alone? RH in lung room is 48% Exhaust fan, high or low with a dehumidifier, doesn't work. What should I do? Defoliate? Thanks! Check diary.

I'll be trimming growth tips other than from the 8 cola sites on each. Still keep un-shaded fan leaves below those levels? A lot online shows all lower fan leaves trimmed
