If you are feeding, I would stop at this point and let the plant consume what's left in the soil and on its leaves, so to have a clear smoke. Two weeks left at most I think

I was wondering how healthy she is looking for day 8? I'm running a Promix Organic seedling starter to start as I heard Fox Farms is a bit "hot" for starting. Running X5 COB w/ real wattage of ~250W at 23". Light placement is my biggest concern.

Defoliación en la 6ta semana de floración??
Note que las plantas tenían mucha vegetación no llegaba nada de luz a la parte baja de las ramas y algunos pequeños cogollo se estaban poniendo color amarillo, decidí arriesgarme y hacer una gran defoliación en esta etapa. Creen que pueda causar algún problema??

Is it a boy? I am in week 5 of veg under T5 8 bulb. 18/6. Harliqueen is not an auto but first time growing CBD so not sure if they show sex before the flip. I will give it a couple more day.

Too much foliage? Not too sure.
Should I thin this out? The canopy is about 8" deep, so 4 layers of foliage. It looks like it's still a bit much. Should I wait for the stretch to finish up and then defoliate properly? Am I being overly analytical Just need to double check with the professionals. Thanks!

Defoliation - 5th week flowering
Heey gardeners!! I'm into 5th week of flowering with three healthy beauties. After the stretch they got bushier than I first expected, and now I'm worried there's too much shade covering the buds. Should I defoliate them? How much and how should I approach? Thanks and stay high

Currently I'm running the full spectrum of GHE nutrients, but beginning to run low. My question is this: What nutrient brand do you use, and why? I run in Coco, so it'd need to be versatile.

Hallo Welche Teile sollte ich abschneiden um ein gutes lollipop hinzubekommen. Den Damen wird es zu warm und die Blätter liegen übereinander und schwitzen. Deshalb habe ich heute das Netz installiert und versuche jetzt noch mehr Platz zu machen. Ich hab schon jeden Tag 10-12 cuts

I've noticed some pistils starting to turn on the upper bud sites, see the last photo above. My question is, is this ok only 2 weeks in to flower, or have I burnt the pistils with feeding, or lights? It's my first grow, so I'm trying to learn as much as I can. Thanks!!
