Clearing lower shaded bud sites
Twalker92
started grow question 6y ago
Should I clear away some of the little bud site lower down on the plant so she redirects growing power to the ones up top?

answered grow question 6y ago
absolutely, depending on how much longer you want to keep her in veg. You can even do topping if you feel adventurous. But at least some lollipoping and defoliation from the bottom is needed! best of luck

Is This Done Flowering Early?
This is supposed to be a 63-70 day flowering time, but I'm at 52 days and I can't imagine these going another 12 to 18 days. It's already throwing out a second set of pistils. What do you think, chop in the next couple days or wait?

Brown shriveled pistils
Why are these pistils turning brown? Some bud sights look perfect but others have these shriveled pistils. Tips of the leaves aren't burnt at all so I don't think it's nutrient burn.

To cut or not to cut that is the question.
Hate being a pain but should I prepare to harvest today or tomorrow or wait. Will be away for 2 days and not sure what to do. I can give a good drink and come back and shut her down or is it risky and with trichomes milly white now but no amber. Pictures are of top cola and lower

When drying should I snip some of the leaves off after a few days?? I feel the way they hug over the nugs the will keep moisture in them. I did nothing but hang them when I picked them.

Mendo breath flowering time.
I'm seeing a lot of people saying mendo breath is 9 or more weeks till harvest but I feel like that's misleading. I've now vegged a photopreiod m.b. or 7 weeks and flowering seems a ways away. So my question is. How long should m.b. it take from flower to harvest?

Hello! I have found that a lot of my leaves have white dots. First it was on only one of the plants, so I divided them. But now it seems to be on all of them. Is this what I think it is (botrytis)? Is there any way to save the plant or harvest at this point? Thank you!

Hey my plant has 10 flowering weeks and it has not shown any bud yet, is it possible to build a greenhouse around it so it does not freeze or will it just lack of wind ? What can I do to make her flower? Like a stressing technique? Also when do you start counting the days? ty 👌

New Trichome Pictures of Calyx and Pistils.
Okay, so my apologies for the pictures of sugar leaves. Here is a new set of pictures from today, June 10, 2022. I only used two colas, and only recorded the calyx and some pistils. I think she needs a little longer??? Thank you for your opinion.
