To Defol or Not to Defol? That is the question.

Prilyfe13started grow question 2 years ago

Week 10 question for Wedding Glue. I know there is a lot of controversy over trimming autoflowers. Let's say it's semi safe. She's super bushy again. Should I do another defoliation? OR wait another few days? I'm worried about timing. I have very little left. Thanks all!

Hi, I follow @LegacyMarketFarm here and on you tube. He indicated there should be final defoliation 3rd week after flowers start. This forces energy to all remaining bud sites. I did this with my plants to keep down any mold issues since I couldn't control humidity. .I will say, however, there are many different thoughts on the 3rd defoliation. Happy growing and have fun 👍

Whoops. I forgot to mention that she has only been in flower for about 8 days. Very late bloomer, this one. I hope that helps. She is way behind.

At 10 weeks, she doesn't have much more time until harvest and I think she looks airy enough so bud rot will not be an issue. I'd let her be... let her work on bulking up the flowers rather than recovering from a defoliation. Good luck - she looks fabulous!

I would definitely defoliate her, she looks robust enough to handle and recover fast out of it !

With autoflowers, at what point do you switch from metal halide to high pressure sodium lights? When the pistils first show or when you actually start to see budlets?

Do I HAVE to run an exhaust fan that changes the air every 3 minutes or is that just unnecessary? I enter the room everyday and the fan is vacuuming fresh air from outside by blowing out the exhaust end.

Curing and drying tips or info please! I’m currently trimming fans then hang drying for 7-10 days at 45-60 Rh temps 23-25. Then curing in jars. Once my ideal humidity (IMO) is reached do I still burp the jars? Or will they get funkier sitting closed? Last question of the diary!
