Hi fellow herbalists, my ladies are so tall there...

MissFlowerPower420started grow question 6 years ago

Hi fellow herbalists, my ladies are so tall there's not enough distance between them n the HID lights. Could I swap the HID lights to 1000w LED lights without screwing my grow up ???? Thankyou in advance for advice ❤️❤️

Hi @MissFlowerPower! Yes I think so, since your LED light has probably a better spectrum for blooming/flowering while producing less heat, but be careful: 1000W is powerful, you may need a reasonable distance between the LED and the plants too, to avoid light bleach or heat stress. You may also want to consider HST/SuperCropping, or just tie them down away from the light as much as you can if possible. Keep us up-to-date and happy growing! 👊

Your plants look young enough not to be affected by a light change. I would be hesitant if you were further into flower, but at this stage everything should be fine. Go for it! 👍

Big leaves keep or not?Question for all the growers in here. When I can cut those big fan leaves on my plant? According that this is an acceptable procedure. My plant is still in veg with around 11 nodes. It seems that those big leaves put in shade the side shoots, should I remove them or not?

Defoliate or not ?Do I need to defoliate her harder ? I Think some of the buds are blocking the sun out of others, I am afraid the buds won't be fat. I am also afraid if I defoliate wrongly she could lose a lot of photosynthesis. What do you guys think ? I should try to lst her down a lot more

Defoliation Hey Growers, Heading into flowering now and I'm wondering if my plants could benefit from some light defoliation? I've LST'd them as best I can to help even the canopy and help the light penetrate lower down as well. I'm just a little hesitant to defoliate because they are Autos.
