started grow question 3y ago
First time defoliating heavily at day 21. A bit nervous. Is this too much?

Awesome job 👌😁 I'd let it recover for 2 weeks and then start pulling off anything that isn't a sugar leaf. I'm all for more Sun and less trimming at harvest. Check out my diaries to see how far you can go before yield is impacted.

What do you guys think about the praying leaves? The internet seems to disagree. Most people seem to think it's a good thing. Everything is in high gear and the leaves are using all of the energy to absorb light. Some camps say it's too much light and it's stressing out.

So my plants have to be alone for a week at my window so they got some darkness at night time. Some 4-5h it's not total there's lights on the balcony etc. Do you think these stressed so bad that I should think about starting over for avoiding hermies.. thanks!

When you guys turn the plants into flowering, do you guys continue to tuck the plants under the scrog net during the stretch or do you let it just grow vertically? Thanks!

Defoliación y cambio de foto periodo
I’ve done a massive defoliation on my plants. I’m not sure if I took too much off, but I followed what you said: everything below the net should be removed, and the big leaves that cover others too. Should I change the light cycle now or wait?

Cut leaves off?
She is a auto. About 62 days in. Just started to show a few white hairs yesterday. Should I cut some leaves off and open her up for more light and air? Getting tight in my tent. If so, should I do it at night? In the morning or does it matter? Thanks.

Do you remove small "buds" when doing defoliation?
When doing defoliation, are you removing these small "buds" (see pictures) that are not getting enough light?

I flipped these to flower 8 days ago. 2 days ago I gave them 1/2 strength feeding of G.O. Go Box according to their feed schedule. I noticed that the new growth seems more yellow and droopy. Also, for 3 weeks the NL plant (bottom right) is half green half yellow. Any ideas?

Topping or LST after 1st topping
Last week I topped this little baby, the plant now is growing ok. I noticed that not only the two top side branches are growing a lot, but that the ones on the node under it too. I would like to make the 4 grow and like that I don't have to top more, is it ok? How can I do it?

I’m curious about the color of my SODK. The whole plant is basically yellow (see pics, started around week 6). It doesn’t look unhealthy though and the buds are looking great. Just wondering did I do something wrong or is it simply genetics?
