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

Ensuring Fat Buds Once Flowering Begins?
What can I do to get fat buds on a pure Sativa outdoor pot plant, once she begins to flower? Stopped feeding, excepting a handful of wood ash, to increase potassium. Super cropped her before I switched to 12-12 light, I'd read it'll increase resin production. Any thing else?

Hermie in the tent. Are all my plants ruined?
I am in week four of flower in a tent grow of NanaGlue and Nanaz. Several days ago. I noticed some white spots on the leaves of one plants and I figured out that it is a hermaphrodite plant. I pulled that plant. Any hope for the others in the tent? Pull em?

Add weight in flowering?
Would a black strap molasses brewed tea help my buds add weight? I'm using only Fox Farm Trio and CalMag with reverse osmosis water, pH @6-6.5. While I have atleast 2 weeks left I'd like to get the most weight possible, if there is anything I can do this late in flower that is.

When to harvest?
2 more weeks? Trichomes are transitioning from cloudy to amber. I'd say 80/20 cloudy to amber.

Twisted growth. Lanky bud sites.
What's wrong with this flower site? This is the main stem. The leaves have been pretty small for the last few days and they don't seem to have a lot of vitality.

Will Saturday be too late to harvest?
I planned on harvesting this plant on Saturday(2/15)... this is my first grow. Most trichomes appear cloudy to me and I also see quite a bit of amber and purple, a few clear. The purple looks almost clear upon first glance. Is Saturday too late? Pls ignore cat hair in pic 😅

Clear or cloudy?
How are these trics? I have an inexperienced eye so I wanted to ask others. Weather is turning cold 12'C day and 8'C night. It's also raining a lot. Plants are on the balcony covered with a plastic sheet. Should I keep waiting? I'm near week 13 on what should be a 8 week grow.
