Hi, thanks for taking a look at my second grow. My question is, does anyone have any recommendations on what I can use in addition to the GHE trio nutes that I am already using with the goal to making bigger and better buds? Thank you,

Would it be a good idea to slowly start pruning the lower and shaded baby shoots? I'm afraid it could stunt the growth.. I've previously scrogged my plants(photoperiod ones) at the height of 30 cm.

Looking for a detailed dry and cure method. I keep asking so I can get more opinions. Was thinking of just using my grow tent for the dry. Hang up side down until dry with temps at 70 to 65. Humidity should stay at a 45 to 50 with help of my ac infinity. Opinions??

Defoliating Autos in Flower
Hi, I'm in the middle of my first grow with autos and could do with advice on defoliation. You'll see from my diaries that things are OK so far but I've got issues with high humidity now that I'm going into flowering. Will it be safe defoliating them now or will it shock them?

So #2 is starting to show amber trichomes but #1 isnt in that stage yet. Should i harvest #2 when ready or can i wait until #1 is also ready and harvest together? Is it bad to harvest late? My plan was to hang them both in the tent to dry.

On day 16 today. They seem to be a bit stunted, perhaps due to the cold. Wondering if I should I replant into bigger pots or wait another week? Especially the one on the left since it's an auto, it may start flowering in a couple of weeks.
