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

I cannot buy seeds because my child will arrive soon and my expenses are too high. Can you tell me a place where you can send seeds or where I can buy free seeds? From which site should I request trial and short-term seeds?

Autoflower flower times?
I keep reading that autoflowers are about 8-10 weeks until harvest. I am almost at 6 weeks—- does this seem right. First full week of flower—-correct progress being made? These are very short plants at about 24 inches

Umgeknickter zweiter Haupt Cola
Hallo Mir ist ein Missgeschick passiert und die Lampe ist abgestürzt. Es ist nur einer Dame was passiert. Kann ich die (2 Wochen vor der Ernte) so stehen lassen oder sollte ich den 2. Cola kappen um dem 1. die Energie zu geben? Der 2 ist gebrochen hängt aber noch dran.

Should I harvest or let her go?
Should I let this girl go longer? It’s an autoflower but mostly the bottom hairs are still white, could I just top the top off and leave the bottom to mature longer? Buds have stayed the same for the most part in the last couple of weeks in terms of density. First grow!

Stress = Early End Game?
I'm having a very hard time getting the humidity down. I know about bud rot, mold, mildew. My question is, if a plant feels threatened, will it make it finish early? You know, will it make reach end game sooner than it should, or I want it to. Thanks!

Help me Understand Defoliation and Pruning around 17-21 dayscof
Still learning lots. I’m at day 18 of Flower and would like some feedback on what’s considered 1/3 of the plant for lollipopping effectively. Do I take the bud sites and fan leaves from everything under 1/3 of the plants total height or do I take bottom third existing foliage?
