Hi
@Ign33l
if they are not ripe at the same time, you can first pick the buds from the top of the plant that are already ripe and leave the buds in the lower area for a few more days until they mature. good luck mate 👍

I want to do some controlled pollination but prevent pollen from blowing to other branches while doing it. Anybody ever tried mixing pollen with water and pouring that water over the buds. I also wonder if it could be frozen in this form if it works.

Pruning auto flower fan leaves? Week 8 of 13
Should I be pulling fan leaves off my plants? There’s a few covering up lower bud sites but I’m unsure how pruning will effect my auto flowers. (See diary week 8 for more photos) Thanks!

Hey - Big time noob here. I was going to grow on a 12-12 from seed but didn't realize how much it would stunt growth. I changed from 12-12 but in my grow diary I can't change from that. I only had 12-12 for a couple of days. I'd like to remove the strategy from my grow diary to p

Flowering bush recommendation
My plant is rather bushy. I don’t want issues during the flowering. I am hesitant to trim down unless it shows signs of issues. What are the recommendations? Branch is falling off should I trim it?

I've got some handymen coming over to fix things around my apartment in a couple of weeks time. The closet lights I ordered won't arrive until after they've gone. I was wondering, how long can I leave the plant without light? Ideally, they'll be without it for at least 36 hours.

How do you flush exactly in DWC? Do you just change out the reservoir with ph adjusted water? Or do you just lower the ppms(my starting water is 130-170)? Is there any flushing agents that actually work?

Defoliation for better ventilation?
Should I defoliate/prune to ensure better ventilation? I am going to flip the plant soon. It is quite bushy with big leaves and sometimes it is difficult to water it as there are a lot of leaves down there. And when is it better to put the net? Before of after the flip?
