Remove the 2 biggest fan leafs?
Hazeberg
started grow question 2y ago
I'm thinking about to remove the 2 huge top leafs to give more light to the lower branches. What would you suggest? Keep them or remove them?

every flower should get as much light as possible. if lst is not possible, defoliating sounds like a good next step. I would try to tuck the leaves under the branches, if not possible i would cut 'em off 100%

Hey fellow growers please help What do you think about the K1 an K2? Should I give it a few more days before harvest or should I chop them now? Or maybe just the K1 for now as it looks more mature, let me know thanks

All my readings and studies makes me believe she’s a female because of the white hair (pistils) around the top. Since I’m a newbie can someone take a look at the pics and let me know for sure? Also, how can I know if a plant is an hermie? It shows both sexes next to each other?

I thought all the signs of deficiences had to be rootbound based on touch/time in veg/etc... however they don't seem to be recovering with my light bloom feeding. increase? decrease? I just flushed the two in concern and I will update photos tonight .

Defoliate or not
Should I defoliate? :-) I see at least one reason already - there's not so much space, no sub lighting and lower branches are blocked from light.

Should I defoliate during flower?
Should I defoliate during flower? I have two Green Crack plants growing right now. I am in early flower stage and one of the plant has some dense foliage under the SCROG canopy that is hurting light penetration and zapping energy I want the plant to use for growing dense buds.

I finally harvested my plants and I am so excited about the quality and quantity I acchieved. Now the buds are curing. However they are a little too dry, the humidity is now 53% and it is falling slowly. What would be the best solution?

I am going to transition to using GH Flora series for my base nutrients, but I am not sure how much I should bother with their suppliments. Besides CalMag which I am adding, has anyone had good results with their bloom boosters, liquid silica, etc? Or is it a waste of money?

Pruning dilemma
I am noticing that some leaves are turning yellow at the very bottom of some plants, I think that there is not enough light coming through. So my question is (I did only LST and FIM --> on the main branch on every plant) should I start to prune some branches to empower top part?

I am using a crude yeast and sugar water mix for CO2 production. My space is 80cm x 3m x 2.3m. Does anyone have any experience of whether this is doing anything? I have the fan on constantly so the air is being recycled. Just wondering if what I am doing is worth it?
