started grow question 8y ago
My light is an LED sitting around 8.66inch (22cm) above my plants. The light is cool and no excess heat is reaching the plants, but is this still too low?

Does not seem like it. When the light is too close, the leaves, will curl upward and yours look fine.

LED or HID? You have stated HID at the top but are asking about LED.

What power is the LED? Height above the plant depends on the power of the lamp

When do you heavy defoliate your Autoflower? She's filled my grow box with some stretch yet, and wondering if I can hack some of the branches/leaves that will never see light. If so, what is your sweet spot in a 12 week strain?

I have 6 different relative humidity sensors in the 4x8 tent all near each other. At any one time, they all have vastly differing readings. The lowest reads 50%, the highest is 78% at one point in time. How do I know which one is most accurate?

How low is too low for humidity? The closet I have converted to become my grow room has been sitting naturally at around 30% humidity most of the time, and I worry that its too low. I am using a dome I made out of an old 2 liter bottle as a dome for now.

Looking for lollipopping advice
How and when to properly do lollipopping? Is it a single or a multiple day process, what would cause less stress? I wanted to do it on more than one day, try a slow process, just remove from bottom to top whatever won't get enough light, any suggestions?

Since nobody has suggested anything anywhere what I want to know is this How do you retain the volume in buds during drying? We all know they lose weight which is fine but keeping the same size now that’s my question (if that makes any sense)

For the folks that use Oregon's only nutrients, i know they say ph should be 6.4 for calcium to be best absorbed but does that still apply in coco substrates? I been slowly swinging my ph up and down over a few waterings to try to get the best range of absorption.
