Has anyone used the Phlizon COB LED 3000W (629W) ? the company states to keep LED lights on at 30-40 inch. and only to use COBS in heavy veg/flowering when the plant is strong. does it make sense to use both COBs and LEDs for full cycle? and at what hang height

Defoliación en la 6ta semana de floración??
Note que las plantas tenían mucha vegetación no llegaba nada de luz a la parte baja de las ramas y algunos pequeños cogollo se estaban poniendo color amarillo, decidí arriesgarme y hacer una gran defoliación en esta etapa. Creen que pueda causar algún problema??

I acideently snapped a branch a little bit but it's still hanging on. Shall I cut it off or leave it?. She is an autoflower. Also should I cut off the very bottom leaf and new node its growing?

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.

Not sure about this, I dont think this plant is flowering but it was supposed to be an autoflower. Might have to move this outside as I'm running out of room inside and I think it will not be able to get harvested.

To top again? Or not to top again? That is the question. I'm working in a 2x4x5 tent so my height is limited. Not sure if I should flip now, or top the two mains again and flip at the end of this week? First photo grow so this is just one of many. Thanks fellow growers!

Looking for advice from experienced CBD strain growers on optimum harvest times for Medicinal use. Do you harvest depending on trichome stage if so at what stage?

I'm looking for more taste than quantity in these beautiful plants. I was able to read that by stressing them a bit (LST or other techniques), it brought out more the terpenes of the plants. What do you think ? Do you have techniques to have a better taste ?

Pruning dilemma
I am noticing that some leaves are turning yellow at the very bottom of some plants, I think that there is not enough light coming through. So my question is (I did only LST and FIM --> on the main branch on every plant) should I start to prune some branches to empower top part?

Coteleidoni tolti
Ciao amici , in cicli scorsi ho sempre levato i coteleidoni ma non vorrei che questa cosa che io faccio danneggi le piante anche se in giro per il web e per le esperienze di altri grower mi dicono che invece levando le due foglioline lo stelo riesce ad irrobustirsi meglio.Pareri?

Hybrid
I have nine plants grown from seed and one is behind in flowering. They are all in the same tent with the same nutrient. For a couple of weeks into 12/12 she showed no signs. Now she is flowering normally, just way behind the others in development. What gives?
