I don't think there is too much foliage on your little girls. Since you are into flowering already, I would keep it all to boost photosynthesis as much as possible. Maybe gently LST the high cola sideways, and raise up the shorter plant to get even light for all bud sites. Good luck!

I would say first open a bit the plant so lower buds get light too. After that i only remove the leaves that make shade on lower buds. And as they told you remove that little buds from bottom they will never grow big

Also you could gently remove some of the popcorn buds on the bottom, to direct all energy to the top buds.

I'm using LEDs for the first time and the humidity in the garden is often around 20-30%. Does anyone know a way to correct this. At the moment i just do foliar spay, but I'm not in the garden regularly.

Terpenator advocates! I'd like to start using it. Does it ONLY enhance the flavors? Or does terpenator have the ability to override the natural flavors of the cannabis with it's own? When should I start feeding my autos Terpenator?

Just Stopped Stretch! - Gotta Do, What I Gotta Do?Against protocol I have hacked on this plant in Week 8. Way branchy! I got into pruning a dozen long scraggly lower runners. I could take out another 12+ wimpy branches easy and open it up good bit for light/air - and then leave it alone? Much anticipated waste, so gamble?

This is my first grow. Everything seems to be looking okay so far. On day 17, I cut the center out of the top node. I see two new nodes growing nicely now. Do I need to prune more at this point? Thanks, iGrowZ

I have a pretty decent heat wave stretch coming my way late next week after the 4th. What’s the best way to protect an outdoor crop in full sun during a heatwave? Obviously the easiest way would be to move it, (she’s in a container) but I have a tarp on hand as well.

I have a question regarding my feeding methods, the plants are currently in flower period and I'm using Canna Terra Flores to feed them. The plants recieve about 2-3 ml of this product a day. But is this enough? Should I give more? Will the buds increase in size if I do? Thanks!
