Should I top or fim her again? There are 10 bud sites growing now. 7 at the top. This is 2nd week since flipping. I don't see any pistils yet I dont think. Is now a good time to make some cuts and if so, where would be the best place?

Which order do you mix your nutrients? I am trying this new line and trying to figure out which part should go in first etc. I feel like I always heard Cal Mag first then everything else, but I read an article that said put in high Phosphorus ingredients first...any advice?

Does anyone have experience with scrogging autoflowers? I'm curious if they respond well to the netting, or if there were any other successful ways of supporting the plants that would allow more mobility for turning and such. Thanks All!

I'm in 3rd week of flowering and 10th week overall. My humidity had been steady around 50-60% during veg, but noticed the first weeks of flowering humidity has DROPPED, usually about 40% - sometimes as low as 35%. Is this normal? I have read humidity normally RISES during flower.

Does anyone out there feeling the same way I do about too much nitrogen in nutes during bloom causing buds to be too leafy and with a 8-9 week auto flower would week 6 or week 7 be better to give them a bit of extra P/K yet leave enough time for a 10-14 day flush?

Defoliate?
Just repotted my baby after learning she may have too much nitrogen. Should I trim all the damaged leaves or should I wait until the plant gets stronger? Also, when will the stem become thicker? Is there something I can do?

I’ve always been told that when all the hairs have turn colors that’s when you should harvest. I’m low on funds so I can’t buy any fancy ultra powered camera. When is the best time to cut?

Week 9 and found seeds in all plants! No pictures necessary! I can only put it down to some form of stress! I have found a few seeds in various locations on all plants but so far it doesn't seem that excessive. What would you do in my situation? Harvest on schedule or ASAP

Should I continue to defoliate during the final weeks of flowering or would it be best to leave all leaves for feeding power?

My growing experience is mainly with autoflowers and when it comes to breeders estimated flowering time for photo plants, when does it begin? If a breeder estimates 8 weeks, is that from 12/12 flip or from the appearance of flowers?

From what point on do you start counting days and weeks? From the day you put the seed in the starting plug? (less likely), the day she sprouts? the day she show her first true leaves? the day you repot her?
