Trimming fan leaves vs sugar leaves for defoliation
indo_outdo_guerilla_growstarted grow question 2y ago
When it comes to defoliation, I know the main purpose is to hack the leaves that are covering bud sights. Should sugar leaves be spared and only trim fan leaves?

When it comes to defoliation, the main purpose is indeed to remove leaves that are blocking bud sites and impeding light penetration. As for sugar leaves, they can be spared during defoliation, especially if they are not obstructing the development of the buds. Sugar leaves can contribute to the overall appearance and resin production of the plant. However, if there are excessive or damaged sugar leaves that are affecting airflow or creating shading, it may be beneficial to remove them as well. It's important to find a balance and assess each plant's specific needs. Happy growing!

Dry spots on sugar leaves, plant late in flowering, also spotted on another one in the same reservoirHi guys,
my plant is around 2-3 week before harvest.
What is the cause of the these dry spots on some of the smallest sugar leaves on my plant?
The ppm might be too much and is around 1200-1300ppm.
PH is 6.0-6.1
I've spotted it on one other plant in the same reservoir.
Thank you

Cutting damaged leaves away or not?Hallo, I have some spots on leaves due to calcium deficencie and it has stoped spreading above leaves by adding calmag to the nutrient solution. We talk about 2 single leaves per plant (max 3 leaves). Should I cut them of because they need energy to recover or does it not care?

creepy crawliesI got creepy crawlies. Clipped the entire leaf, mixed abt 3 drops of neem oil in 100-150ml tap water and sprayed the f*ck out of it. Then I checked the rest of my plants, found nothing but decided to spray them anyway. When should I re-apply? Any adverse effects of neem oil?

WHAT IS THIS DISCOLOURATION? Critical Kush non auto from RQS, 10 weeks old, outdoor.There is some discolouration on the leaves. I have removed the worst off 7 leaves and applied a pesticide for spider mites, aphids, scale insects today. Should I remove all the rest infected leaves as well to be safe? Pesticide says I can repeat in 7-10 days. thanks

Do these random spots mean nutrient burn/deficiency, or is this normal?I have been feeding my plants 1/2 strength FF once weekly since week 3. The plants seem to be doing well. One has twisted leaves but seems healthy. But the plants are displaying random spots of yellowing. Is this normal or indicative of some kind of nute issue?

I have a plant that’s been showing mutations since the start and it’s working on it’s 6th node now. I almost want to kill it off to let the better plants get bigger.
