Looks like a good time to me. Personally I prefer FIMing over topping with autos. Seems to cause less shock to the plant and produces similar results. Have fun! 👍

It's always a good time for LST. TOP or FIM on autos should be done above the 4th pair of leaves, removing the 5th, it seems you are kind of late for it, can't be sure since I don't see the number of nodes, I usually do it at the end of the 2nd week. Super cropping you can do pretty much any time.

Guys I have a question about ppm. So only my last grow I always used ro water. My ppm was only as high as 500-600. Now does this mean as the plant gets bigger I have use non-ro water later on in order to get it up?? As long as my ph is good and nutrients are not too high why not?

Ideally in soil one wants to flush for two weeks before harvest and one wants to harvest when trichomes are 50/50.. but, how do you know WHEN to start flushing? How do you know when the plant is "close" to that moment and does this speed up the color change of the trichomes? Ty!

Hey, So I've been battling low humidity nonstop. Does anyone have advice on how to give a plant extra moisture or trick it into thinking its more humid? Other than building a greenhouse.

So as my girl gets really close to harvest, something’s been bugging me... while the buds are super frosty, there is almost no trichomes on the small sugar leaves. Maybe it’s strain related but the breeders image shows frosty leaves also I normally like to make a tincture w/ trim

As you can see in the pictures, the grow tent is super packed and full of green. Its the beginning of week 5 of flower and one of my concerns is the light not penetrating through the top. Should I defoliate or trim large fan leaves to thin it out or just let it grow?

Defoliation?Day 21 of flower, do I need to do any further defoliation? Everything looks connected to a bud site so I'm apprehensive about removing anything else. Afraid of running into PM at some point as weather gets warmer and RH rises. At 45-55rh now. May get a small dehumidifier soon.
