Hazebergstarted grow question 1y 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%

Not sure what’s going on but the past few days lots and lots of my pistols have been going an orange brown colour And it’s more evident every day. Only thing I can think of is there has been lots of rain this week and a higher humidity. Any ideas/ suggestions? Check last 2 pics.

4AM is on day 63-getting her 2nd flush. She has some amber trichomes prodominately on her leaves but not so much on the actual buds. Would it be safe to harvest on day 65-67, or should I let her continue maturing?

I have been aggressively LST training throughout VEG and have done it twice since triggering flowering 7 days ago. SCROG. My question is how long into flowering do you typically continue to LST train before just allowing everything to just shoot up. Up to date Recent pics above.

Hi everyone, I was thinking about getting a booster for my last couple of weeks of flowering. I feel like I probably have at least 4 weeks left so I am trying to think ahead. Is it wise to use a booster for like cha ching or overdrive with tiger bloom?

Defoliar o no defoliar Tengo 2 automáticas a las que he aplicado LST, y ahora hay muchas hojas juntas tapándose las unas a las otras. Cultivo en exterior con luz artificial adicional (17h de luz en total) y es la semana 7 . Creo que es mejor no defoliar las auto, pero viendo esto ya no estoy seguro.

Should I do a bit of defoliation and if so, when?Should I defoliate these a bit? And when specifically? Especially the really bushy Stilton x 3BOG. I am haven't adjusted LST since first signs of flower but the tent is a bit crowded and I thought that defoliation might help with air flow and even distribution of light?

Do you recommend defoliation on any main fan leaves that are hurting you light penetration and simply cannot be trained in a different place specifically on auto flowers ?

I am having a hard time getting a sense of the autoflower "timeline". Many breeders have these "seed to harvest" claims, such as 55 - 85 days seed to harvest etc. My grow is entering week 9, and the flowering stage is just getting started. Are these claims even worth noting?

Harvest is just days away and i am still unsure what to do. Please give me your best advise on cutting and drying. Should i cut and hang the whole plant or individual branches? Trim fan leaves immediately or wait? How long do i hang it to dry? What about the popcorn and shake?

When is a cloned plant from cuttings considered a plant, the day of cutting/trimming, or the first sighting of roots in plugs, or in my case, from the transplant date, approximately 10-13 days (good roots) to get to the first transplant stage to 4" pots with soil?
