That depends on how tight is your node spacing. Best answer is "as soon as you can", I do it at the 4th week, because of how tight my node spacing is.

How much to trim my bush?
I've created a fairly flat canopy but I have all this new growth a few nodes down from the top that just is not getting any light. I am not sure if I should leave it since its fairly close to the top or remove it.

Still a relative noob, so please excuse my ignorance. What fertilizer is good for the full cycle (veg, flower, bloom) that is easily available and not outrageously priced? Using a peat/sphagnum mix, virgin soil.... Thanks in advance!

Time to flip?
Is it the right time to install trellis net and flip her to flower? It's day 43, she is 23cm tall (the highest point), looks well-trained already with many branches. Should I defoliate before flipping?

4AM is on day 63-getting her 2nd flush. She has some amber trichomes prodominately on her leaves but not so much on the actual buds. Would it be safe to harvest on day 65-67, or should I let her continue maturing?

Just installed my first scrog, planning on flowering in about 2-3 weeks. Looking tips on how to train the best. Should my screen be higher so plants grow into it more or do I want to force horizontal growth and then pull through openings?

I’m looking to get max PAR value(950) on my plants during flowering. My lights came with a grid that isn’t super specific. Question what are some very first signs of too much light for your plants And should I keep pushing the limit inch by inch to try and achieve maximum light?

These girls are needing to be topped, but since i just put them into the dwc system should i wait untill the roots have reached down into the water? Or is the rootball in the rockwool good enough to go ahead and top them, so they can get on with recovering from the stress?
