Stinkfiststarted grow question 5 years ago

Will it hurt to defoliate every few days or should it only be done a couple times per grow?. Also LST during all stages?

I only defoliate a few times in a grow. So they get only a few times the stress after defoliation. LST can’t hurt. Good luck

Too me it all depends on the training your doing and the reason behind the defoliating. Personally when mainline or something with heavy structure work defoliating helps open up space ect... Defoliating without a purpose just dosnt make any sense.

I would suggest only a few times a grow because it may stress your plant out and when you do it be very selective on which leaves you remove only the one's blocking bud sites and LST is safe during any stage but really isn't needed after the stretch is over. Good Luck on your journey my friend ...

Can male flowers pollinate buds that have been already harvested? I've had to cull a couple of plants because they are hermies and I'm worried that pollen from the male flowers will pollinate female buds when I use the same drying rack, is this possible?

What nutrients would you recommend for this grow? I still have some @foxfarms combo nutes. This is all about trying everything until I find what’s best for me. We have a massive amount of knowledge on this site, and I trust growers more than anyone. Thanks in advance.

Knowing when and how to defoliate is causing me headache. Please have a look at week 15 pics and tell me how much more defoliation do I need. I'm worried about stunting the growth of the buds.There is too much of a shaded undergrowth.

What do you do when one of your Autos flowered super early on one side, and is now fish tailing like a mofo? You’ll see the pics where one aide looks really matured and I’m starting to see some amber trichomes.. But you’ll see on the other side, she looks great and is growing.

First post / question as newbie, I’m at the point of flushing my space mango in soil with perlite 65/35. Flushed around 40-50 litres of ph water at 130 ppm, ppm went up and over 1000+ then came back down. Is this normal? Running out at 204 now but the last of drained water at 394

Hi ! Has anybody been releasing Lst branches in late flowering. I noticed that half of my branches dont need that wiring on them, but they have marks, maybe they would circulate better without ?

Has anyone tried growing in perlite? I know I'll need to monitor my nutes. I'm not seeing much difference than growing in co co except the co co seems to retain more moisture.

Just finished my first harvest and I was surprised that I ended with an ounce for my plant. I don't know if this is common? Please take a look at my plant before harvest, and see the size of the buds and what I ended up with. Maybe its too dry after 7 days hanging . Any tips?
