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.

Prune bushy top of small plant?
One of my plants is kinda short but bushy on top, so i was wondering if i should maybe remove some leaves so that the lower parts of the plant will get more light ? Plant in question is 4 weeks old now and around 12cm in height.

If this were your plant, what would you be doing to it right now? Leaving it alone? Trimming fan leaves? Are those brown spots a concern (they are only on a few leaves)?

To defoliate or not (auto flower flowering stage)?
Hi All, As per the title, the plant looks great to me (week 9), but I do wonder whether I should defoliate? I'm running 200w of LEDs for the one plant so no shortage of light. I realise 200w is rather over the top based on the daily light integral. Thoughts?

Should I remove these leaves? Only the ones with the worst signs of the Deficiency?
Basically I’m going throw a calcium deficiency in week 7 of flower, feel like I’ve already fixed the issue by flushing with pH balanced water and reading the right nutes to the medium. Overall should I trim these fan leaves with deficiencies? And does my plant look good?

When to start defoliate?
When should i start to defoliate? I have already removed some of the lower leafs that turned yellow. I plan on putting them into flower within 2 weeks, they already take up 1/4 (almost 1/3) of the grow height including pot. (if you recommend other techniques, feel free to say)

Based on the dreadful pictures I have, does anyone agree she is ready to be cut? Will have to trust me when I say there seems to be the majority of trichomes either cloudy or amber. I know the leaves are bad looking, I think she got too hot for a few days when I went away :(

This is my first grow and I'm not sure when to harvest. I have one plant with lots of frosty trichomes and a few orange hairs. Then another with a lot of orange but not a lot of frost. The third seems to be behind with mostly white hairs and clear trichomes. See pics Dec 16.

Any 1st day of flower advice??
Today is first day of flower. Flipped lights last night, added scrog and defoliated. Think I could have left the top fan leaves for a little longer but too late F it...

Should I defoliate more then I did?
Should I defoliate more then I did? I went to the second and third leaf on all mains. Kinda thinking Id leave more of the smaller stuff on the lower but I think I did an ok job with LST and Topping to keep the bottoms pretty cleanish. Plant 2 maybe more from the FIMMED top?

I've noticed that my plant is now showing signs of going into flower. Next res change is due Sunday. Should I switch to bloom nutes then, or would you recommend to do it earlier?

Too much trimming up top?
I read defoliating throughout week 3 of flower is around the last time you should trim. I cleaned up the bottom real well, but Do you think I trimmed too many fan leaves up top? A lot my bud sites have one fan leaves and the nodes under it have none at all?

Any tips would be appreciated she’s untopped, low budget grow but seems to be holding its own, I spend a lot of time tucking leaves and re arranging branches to get more light to the lower nodes. Didn’t know what to expect as this is my first grow. Very fast strain to flower!

I have germinated some auto seeds and started sitting them outside but I want to move them inside to a grow tent and grow them there. Is there a problem with starting plants outside then moving them under led lighting for the veg/bloom? Anything you need to watch out for?

First time doing LST and am wondering about clipping the fan leaves that are in the dirt and covering the new growth nodes on the main stem. Is it cool to cut these fan leaves in order to expose these new growth sites to the lights or would you recommend I just leave it? Thanks!
