answered grow question 3y ago
garden wire, bamboo stakes.. prolly want a shorter vege if you do a SOG. if you grew it too big, cut it to size... it's not the most efficient but better than the risks that come with congestion.

Does this Gold Leaf auto need to be thinned or SCROG'ed?
Should I thin her out? Should I SCROG? Does she look healthy? I've done a lot of LST and water with a pH 6. She's a Gold Leaf autoflower at 7 weeks, 2 days.

The leaf twisting and contorting i'm seeing in the first set of true leaves; is that due to incorrect PH(my tap water has 7.7 ph)? Also the discoloration on my 4AM #3's second set of true leaves(only one has the discoloration), can anyone tell me what that is? Is it bad?

Defoliation late in flower on Auto's
I like to defoilate, If I were to pick majority of the fan leaves off of these plants being Auto's, will they react or stress too much? I like to defoil near the end of flower to really push all the focus to the budsites. Happy Growing!

Should I do a bit of defoliation and if so, when?
Should I defoliate these a bit? And when specifically? Especially the really bushy Stilton x 3BOG. I am haven't adjusted LST since first signs of flower but the tent is a bit crowded and I thought that defoliation might help with air flow and even distribution of light?

Bigger leaves shading lower branches??
As you can see in my last photos (DAY 28) plants are developing lower side branches. Should I get rid off the larger leaves which shade the lower branches? I already tried to bend down the larger leaves to make room for the lower branches. What do you suggest? Veg for 15 more day
