Hello! You shouldnt be doing that, will most likely stunt her since she grows by catching sun Light. Better do some lst!

Do you remove small "buds" when doing defoliation?
When doing defoliation, are you removing these small "buds" (see pictures) that are not getting enough light?

So this is my first grow. I mixed my growing media 2 parts peat moss to 1 part fox farm ocean forest in five gallon pots. I am wanting to grow organic and have an all purpose 4-4-4 fertilizer and my other fertilizer is 2-5-3. My question is when should I start to amend with a top dressing and how much of each fertilizer should I use? Thanks for the help and this platform.

Hello there, is there someone who have already used the Advanced nutrients in order to give me some advice about the daily dosage, particularly upon autoflowering sativa strain? Moreover, with high room temperature (about 30° C) how often is it recommended to water daily? Thanks

Any suggestions?
These two are recovering from a Broken PH Pen, and stunted by too much recharge(mislabeled for hydro). We've fixed the issues and are back on track, we've finally started to see some stretch again! My question is - should I defoliate more, to encourage branching? Or just wait?

According to the trichromes I'm guessing there's more than 2 weeks remaining before harvest. I'm looking for all cloudy with some amber trichromes and the majority of them are still clear with slightly cloudy. Anyone able to give me a more accurate timeline? 1 week? 2 weeks? 3?

Pruning lower growth
I read that in maximizing yield you trim off the lowest two set of branches. I am growing my plant horizontally to accumulate more budsites without the use of topping until I have the desired amount of branches. Is it safe to remove the lower two sets of branches?

Alright, the Plants are doing great, the oldest one which is one week ahead of the others is ready soon. I normally just give tab water for a week before cutting the plant. Now my question: what do you think about flushing with Molasses, I red that somewhere online.

Any idea about how to handle the crowding at top? Should I try to trim back or just leave it alone? Seems like the leaves are burning, but keeping flowers off the light.

We’re using all living soil rich with castings, mycorrhizae, sea compost and gaia green 4-4-4. We’ve only been feeding water but just wondering is anyone nutrient feeds on top of using living soil?

My seedling has two stems, each with 3 cotyledons. I have so many questions, please answer them all 🙏 1 - Have you seen this or heard of this before? 2 - Should I try to separate them? 3 - Should I kill one? If so - kill short fat and stumpy or tall and skinny?

Did I chop at the right time? She's an autoflower in week 8 of flower and week 12 total. Dinafem say it's an 80 day plant and it's day 81. The big fan leaves are yellow and dying. Some of the small leaves closer to bud sites are yellowing/dying. 90% of the pistils are dead/red.
