Intentional revegging after harvesting. Is it wise or a stupid idea to take say 15 of my most viable looking ones and chopping them to suit
Is this a thing people actively do? After it has settled (if thats a thing) will it successfully grow on and veg/flower as expected? Just looking at options to re use the coco and.it would be a pretty cool thing to do Would the established root system in coco make sense to try it

Does any1 use an inline carbon filter as a secondary method to remove odour? Or am I best adding another carbon and a fan set to X in my tent?
Needing to boost the smell removal process here! Bit wary of using an ozone in case it's not the perfect seal and it leaks out into the living space etc Is there a sum as to the cubic meterage of a space that a carbon filter can effectively remove odours

Can I use another brand of pk mixed with athena as a short term solution? Am I right thinking its a potassium issue? I messed everything up and its 2 late?
Can I use a different brand? Pics of 2 options shown Carer didn't pick up pk to feed them. They have been fed without pk, just bloom A/B calmag Leaves starting to purple. I can't get athena pk until monday. Can I use one of these and add according to ppm. Plants r in coco Thank

Flowering tips and looking to grow knowledge. Input appreciated and any wisdom you can share. I am stressed about my little tent children. Thank you
What is the difference between a flowering / bud site? Should shaded and sad looking leaves low down by the pot down be removed? I am tucking big leaves round that are covering a bud below is this okay or is there better thing to do? What is popcorn when people say to do it?

Feminised Photo reccomendations please for Indoor low odour strain options. Indoor grow with LEDs with Autofeeder pots
Looking at diaries for Northen Lights they list strong for odour. From research online its listed repeatedly as top low odour but doesn't seem to be the case according to diaries. Does anyone have 1st hand reccomendations for a 'low odour' strain pls and a breeder Thanks
