Trimming the leaves that block light to the lower bud sites is fine. In fact, most recommend it. I say go for it! 👍

Harvest autoflower so soon?
Auto Gelato from Ganja Farmer. Its day 58 and the trichomes are cloudy and the pistils are red/orange. The buds are beautiful and fragrant but still pretty small. Can she really be nearing harvest in less than 2 months? Is bud size typically lost in favour of speed with autos?

When do the buds fill out?
Will these buds fatten up and fill out? I'm going into week 10 now from germination and my two Canuk Cookies autos are much smaller but turning purple with big fat buds almost ready to harvest. Is this one just lagging behind a little? Does it look like these buds will fatten?

Immature nugs?
Yo fastbuds, or other growers who've used fastbuds in the past. Why do my back two plants' nugs look not ready compared to the front two? They're at full term but not sure whether I should just keep feeding them or just flush with what I got. (L is imma, R is mature)

Buds too small for week 4 of flowering?
Hi guys, I just finished week 4 of flowering and I'm wondering if my plants look like they're smaller than others on GD. The buds are still starting to develop and are pretty small, they look like week 2 of flowering compared to other growers of the same strains. They are healthy

wann soll ich ernten ?
Die Meinungen darüber wann ich meine beiden Pflanzen ernten sollte spaltet sich! Meiner meinung nach würde ich nächstes Wochenende ernten aber ich habe Angst das es zu früh ist. Die etwas lila pflanze ist die fat banana und die Knollen auf den letzten Bildern ist green gelato.

Auto not Flowering
So my girl showed her sex a few weeks ago but hasn’t stopped stretching ! There is no sign of any new bud sites either!? I had three girls altogether ,two I donated to friends who have reported that they have now flowered. And are doing well. Only difference is pot size.

enlonged buds
The younger plant has developed flowers in an enlonged shape. The plant herself has grew a lot during her cycle (plant on the left day 72) and I can't understand the reason. Maybe some stress due to the hot temperature in the box during the veg (30ºC as peaks sometimes).Any idea?

Auto flower stalled flower?
I have an Auto flower that is about 3 weeks into flowering but I'm seeing very little trichome development so far. I have two other autos from the breeder, different strain, that's frosting up nicely. This is supposed to be a faster finishing auto so I'm a bit confused what to do

Is it nearly ready?
How many more weeks would you say this has? I'll probably harvest in sections because the bottom third looks about two weeks behind!
