One of my girls is showing signs of N tox so I'm going to drop nutrients for the next week and just feed plain PH'd water until a good runoff. My question is; during this week should I still be giving Bud Factor X, Big Bud, and Bud Candy? There isn't N in those.

Just a few weeks from harvest and have some friends telling me to harvest and dry with the roots attached. Can't find any info on this. Anybody have experience with drying the whole plant roots included? Their idea is to wash the soil off the roots then hang them upside.

The question is do I defoliate the outdoor plants? I figure outdoor should be the same as indoor and it should work. I also know the sun is extremely hot and maybe keeping the fan leaves is better. I have a plant starting budding and wonder if I should Any help is appreciated

Hab vor paar Tagen meine purple kush verloren wegen Schimmel . Wollte nicht das es auch so bei meinen großen Ladies geschieht und hab kurz gesagt ne Menge an Blättern weggeschnitten für eine bessere Lüftung. Hab ich eventuell zu viele abgetrennt?

So my plants have to be alone for a week at my window so they got some darkness at night time. Some 4-5h it's not total there's lights on the balcony etc. Do you think these stressed so bad that I should think about starting over for avoiding hermies.. thanks!

I started this grow with 2x2x4 with a 350 watt LED and moved everything in to a new 3x3x6 with a 600 watt LED. Shortly after transition to flower I added my old LED thinking this would provide additional canopy penetration. Is this worth it or is it over kill?

When should I stop defoiling my plant?
Hey everyone! I'm heading into the 3rd week of flower, is it too late to defoil one more time?? Or do I just let it ride? It seems the plant didn't mind the first 2 week defoil but I dont want to over stress it.

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, Y

Should I defoliate, or let them grow? I see some buds that dont get enough light. I have 3 options. 1: let them grow 2: defoliate a little bit, just cut some leafs 3: hard defoliation/schwazzing. What would you do?

My plants do not match up with other Bangi Haze plants. These were two free promotional seeds i received from a seed bank . They seems to be a hybrid as far as i can tell. My question is did this happen to anyone else and do you know what seeds they could be?

This is the second time some bird is damaging my plant. Some pigeon has uprooted the seedling. I noticed it hours later in the night. Root was almost intact, it was just uprooted and left there. I have replanted her now. Will she recover?? How to deal with birds in outdoor grow?

When temps increase due to warmer weather do most people raise lights or reduce wattage? I guess different growers use both methods to lower canopy temps but I can't see that this question has been asked very much. Thanks

The only question I have is : would you top them once early + LST or let them grow naturally +LST. i will have 4 plants in a 4x4x6 I want to maximize yield. they seem very healthy and growing fast.

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