Fan leaves in early
Foxtrotoscarstarted grow question 5 years ago
I’m only 5 days into flower but could do with some fan leaves removing to let light in underneath. However I only just defoliated the day before flower roughly 6 days ago. Would it still be ok to clip a few off?

Hi @Foxtrotoscar yes, you can and should do some defoliation on the larger leaves that are shading the shoots. defoliation slowly and gradually so that the plant does not stress. the secret of defoliation is to do it slowly so as not to delay the plant. good luck mate 👍

You can do it if you remove only the leaves that are blocking light , the others will be important , she is stretching so she can recover from that stress as long as you don't do another defo after that one

Duration is fine, especially if you had previously fed the plant.
For me, I try and time my feedings right after I do a trimming session.

Yes, not to much stress for the plant. She can do it. It’s been already 6 days since the last defoliate so there’s no problem. Have a good day and a good luck mate

What to do with the leaves? Let them grow or use a specific method to grow?My baby is finally starting to grow and expand fast. I'm unsure what the best thing to do is with the leaves, as there seem to be so many. Should I take down some leaves? Should I leave them? It's the first time growing in such a small tent and a auto.

Curly young leaves (help)I have a little problem with the plants in my indoor (70x79x160 with 4 airpots each of 12 litres) since 2 days ago are decayed, 3 days ago (Friday) I changed the lamp mars hydro ts600 (100w) for a more powerful mars hydro Fc300 (300w) I do not know if it is the change of format, the power of the knob I left it at half that is in theory 150 watts of its total capacity 300w and at a height of about 40 CM. The next day (Saturday) I saw that they were the same so I proceeded to leave it at 40 degrees of power and I gave them biofish fertilizer to see if it was a question of hydration but today Sunday I realize that they are still the same.
I don’t know if it’s the light intensity with the new lamp or that I over watered them 3 days ago on Thursday (I watered them with around 550ml of water per pot) and as I said before, when I saw them like that on Saturday I gave them biofish fertilizer, but nothing…

Leaf mutations in Northern Light Automatic (RQS)Hello. Could this leaf mutation in Northern Light Automatic (RQS) be dangerous to the plants? What could it be caused by? Could this be caused by too much light for the sprout and the Top Crop Green Explosion fertiliser? The leaves grew very strong in a few days after fusion.

Possible Over Watering. Can I get an experts look?My plants leaves are looking droopy and condensed. I am worried that I may be watering them too much. I water them with a gallon of water every 3 days with 3 teaspoons of "Grow Big" added and mixed into the water pot. Do they look normal for a 4 week old plant?

Topping very bushy plants with low node distanceThis plant is very bushy already in this stage, is this normal?
I wanted to top them and ask about the timing, if its right or not, but it's getting hard to count the nodes and take photos , because there is so much in the way.
Happy growing!

LST trim??Things are getting a bit cramped with my LST. Some fan leaves are buried under others or are on the ground. Should I trim some lower fan leaves to give it room to breathe? Or should I let it rock as long as they are not blocking any light?

Wedding Glue auto has WAY too many leaves. What do i do with her?What do I do with this overly leafy plant? I'm pretty sure the foliage caused very airy buds and tops. What should I do here? Major defoliation before 48 hours of dark? Leave it, cut the branches off when harvested and run a dry trim or with this should I run wet trim? Thanks!
