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?

No, I wouldn't worry about he herbs drying being pollinated. There isn't enough time for seeds to form during cure as they truly tap out the plants energy.. I'd be more concerned with the pollen making its way into your flower room if it's close by.. unlikely but the risk is still there... I found a dried pollen sack in my herb that I used to pollinate another strain and the pollen was still viable after being in a food dehydrator for 36 hrs... Sterility will be key afterwards.. make sure to wash up after handling the dried nugs to avoid cross contamination... Cheers! Keep it Green! DWCHC π π

Trimming/Defoliation late vegetation, just before flip to 12/12?I'm unsure about trimming/defoliation at this point: What's the goal for just before switching to 12/12? I've read to veg until your height is 1/2 to 1/3 the final height supported by the setup. I seem to have plenty of room still. How much do I trim under the canopy?

Over the next several weeks...What should I expect to see, regarding the fan and sugar leaves. Do the nutes in the leaves get consumed for flower production? I don't want to freak out over any change in appearance. I plan on only using pH'd water till harvest. Thanks 4 the adviceWeek 5

So I have been viewing some of the grows on here and am noticing that Autos grown in soil tend to flower sooner than hydro grows. My question is will feeding bloom notes earlier trigger a reaction to the plant to signal when to flower. Do I have any control over that? ThanksWeek 8
