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

Autoflower foliage trimHey all, im on my 4th week of flower (kind of stunted my grow in veg a bit so she stayed in veg for longer)
I wanted to do some defoliation of the bottom third of my plant but im afraid since shes an auto she will halt bud growth because of defoliation
Thoughts?

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?Week 10

For the folks that use Oregon's only nutrients, i know they say ph should be 6.4 for calcium to be best absorbed but does that still apply in coco substrates? I been slowly swinging my ph up and down over a few waterings to try to get the best range of absorption.Week 7

Curing and drying tips or info please!
I’m currently trimming fans then hang drying for 7-10 days at 45-60 Rh temps 23-25. Then curing in jars. Once my ideal humidity (IMO) is reached do I still burp the jars? Or will they get funkier sitting closed? Last question of the diary!Week 17

I'm in week 3 and she's starting to smell. Today I walked in and the smell was unmistakable and ramping up from just a few days ago. What does this mean? Does it indicate some kind of change in the plant I need to be aware of? Do I need to take care of anything differently?Week 3

I've heard a lot of back and fourth whether you should, or should not use plant protectors (bugs,mold, etc) during flower period. I just want to know what is and what is not ok to give your plants during flower, assuming that the plant in question is in fact healthy.
Thanx guysWeek 7

I started noticing drooping on one plant about 4 days ago. I know it’s not overwatering, but thought it might be under watering, but still no change. The leaves appear to be a very dark olive color. Watered with a little kelp as I thought maybe heat stress. Thoughts? Help?Week 3

Autoflower defoliation questionIs it safe to pluck dying leaves on autoflowers this close harvest? It’s ztrawberriez by fast buds. It’s a little after week 8. Based on my naked eye and looking at hairs I’d say about 3 weeks to go and 1 more feeding.

How's she looking ? Yesterday I noticed that her leaves were hanging so I first thought about over- or underwatering but then i noticed that some leaves are twisting, like the top is facing the soil so I hang the LED a bit higher. Just wanted to know if she's still stressed.Week 5

What do you think the issue is? I’m using 900w Viparspectar full spectrum (vege only at this stage) LED lights at over 100cm (36 inches). There is a key nutrient that must be used from day 1 if you want your plants to handle 18 hours of direct intense light. What is it?Week 2
