Remove the 2 biggest fan leafs?
Seedleranswered grow question 1y ago
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%

I would 100% keep them you want to get as much sunlight as possible you could remove the leaves that don't get light

Got my Bluelab EC/ppm meter in today! Once I had it calibrated I decided to test my tap water. It came out to 420ppm, I shit you not... God wants me to grow pot! Unfortunately this is also a little high as I decided to test my ppm with my nutes. Note: this water hasn't been left out to evaporate chlorine or anything. Using the Dual Fuel x Terpinator schedule found here: https://mygreenplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Dual-Fuel-Terp-Feed-Chart.pdf I took 1 Litre of tap water, and added the nutes for week 3 -2ml Dual Fuel 1 and 2 (I dont have Vitathrive, totally forgot it at the grow store despite writing a list.) Well my ppms shot to almost double of the recommended amount of 850pmm. I am really starting to see why many people struggle with Ntox, etc if they dont use a ppm meter and account for what is in the actual water! To combat this I will probably lug 5 gals water from the grocery store until I splurge on an RO system. Maybe even a cheap Brita faucet filter might bring it down? Tell me what you think!Week 1

We were planning on using FOX Farm trio (Big Bloom , Grow Big(liquid plant version) and Tiger Bloom as nutrients but found out that they might not be a good idea in mix with Canna Coco Pro medium. Do you think we should change to other nutrients like Canna ones?Week 1

Week 8 of flower I lowered the CO2 to 1200ppm and planning to lower it 50ppm every day until I hit 800PPM.
Should I keep 800PPM for week 9 and 10 or should I cut it completely?
Should I lower the light intensity for the last 2 weeks since I lower the CO2 levels?Week 22

Week 7 SCROG vs Defoliation questionI'm in the middle of week 6 of flower, both strains are expected to finish at 8 or 9 weeks. Plants are crowded. Buds aren't as big as I was expecting. I'm not sure if I should leave the SCROG canopy to boost the crowns, or defoliate to get more light to the lower bud sites.Techniques. Defoliation
