You only want to defoliate whats absolutely necessary. Leaves that cover bud site and inner leaves for air flow. Week 5 should be the last defoliation.

Yes, along as you don’t go too mad bro. Just take away anything that is blocking the main flowering sites from getting direct light. Good luck bro 💪

Finding seeds on my plant seems like it may have converted to hermaphrodite from a light issue with a power outage. Should I harvest now or wait to see if it continues to bud?

I reckon I should start to flush now for the next 2 weeks or so until harvest. Would you agree with this estimate, and is there anything critical I need to look out for at this stage? They're about to start their 5th and 6th week of flowering, respectively.

We have done a fair amount of defoliation and would like to know whether it would be safe and good for yield to go a little more drastic with it? We would also appreciate any general comments about nutrients and the plant itself?

How's she looking ? Yesterday I noticed that her leaves were hanging so I first thought about over- or underwatering but then i noticed that some leaves are twisting, like the top is facing the soil so I hang the LED a bit higher. Just wanted to know if she's still stressed.

I am still a few weeks from harvest but wondering what experience anyone has with 48 hrs of darkness before harvesting. My last grow, I ended it with 24 hrs of darkness but want opinions on whether the extra 24 hrs is worth it.

Should I remove these leaves? Only the ones with the worst signs of the Deficiency?Basically I’m going throw a calcium deficiency in week 7 of flower, feel like I’ve already fixed the issue by flushing with pH balanced water and reading the right nutes to the medium. Overall should I trim these fan leaves with deficiencies? And does my plant look good?

Defoliation before harvesting Hello, I hope some more experience grower would be able to give me a good advice. I’m in week 9 and planning to harvest at the end of week 11. Do you think that defoliating my girls would be a good idea? Should I take all big fan leaves? 🤔

Hi Growers!👋 I'm in sore need of your help and advice. As you can see, I've a very specific handmade growbox(dimensions on the first week). The light right now is about 30cm above the plants, and I don't know what to do in the very near future: LST/HST/Topping or ScrOG Thanks!🙌

I want to do some controlled pollination but prevent pollen from blowing to other branches while doing it. Anybody ever tried mixing pollen with water and pouring that water over the buds. I also wonder if it could be frozen in this form if it works.

Defoliation and lollipop Opinions about defoliation? I'm on second week at 12/12 and I did a kind of lollipop, just cut lower internodes and let the fan leaves still on. I think this way gives the opportunity to the plant to avoid deficiencies of mobile nutrients.. Is it a good idea?

Tops spacing My plant is really tight for space between tops. I'm trying not to disturb her anymore. I really don't want to cut anymore off but the foliage is getting insane. My question is do my tops have enough space or do I need to find a way to spread out more, and should I defoliate?
