Light penetration is good enough outdoor, so there less point doing it than indoor where light penetration quickly decrease.

What are the beige/brown spots a sign of? Why are the two Cookies plants always droopy yet the Blue Dream never droopy and they have all been watered the same. Roughly 1g each every 5 or so days when pots are dry and light. My light is up to 30" so that's not it.

I’m curious about the color of my SODK. The whole plant is basically yellow (see pics, started around week 6). It doesn’t look unhealthy though and the buds are looking great. Just wondering did I do something wrong or is it simply genetics?

I've been taking tons macro shots and I've noticed there are some small white dots in the leaves (especially young ones) that look like small trichomes but I don't think they are that. I wonder, what are they? And what's the most accurate and/or scientific name for those dots?

How often you all recommend feeding bud enhancers? I’m use Advanced Nutrients Big Bud & Bud Candy and I’m wondering if it would be beneficial to use it with my waterings, too, rather than just when I feed. Been dosing those full strength but only feed Sensi A/B half dose 1X/week.

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’ve been watering with rain water collected from my water butt in the garden. What’s people’s thoughts on rainwater as opposed to tap water? Mother nature’s water seems like a good idea to me?

Should I defoliate?
Can, should I defoliate the plant to allow light to the lower buds. It’s day 52 so not sure if this will hinder bud development. I’ve already LSTed the branches out as much as I can and tucked as many leaves as possible. Thanks 😊

This plant is behaving differently than my other plants (Northern Lights, and Somango XXL) in that it is stretching for a second time this late into flowering. I can notice it the most in the center colas, but also in the exterior ones. Is this normal? Does it want more light?

What is an organic way of rapidly developing roots of seedling? Also, what is the difference in nutrient schedule for autos versus photos using GH Hydroponics Flora Trio? Is the Lucas formula going to work for autos?

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.

I’ve read that you shouldn’t use nutrients right away because it may cause nutrient toxicity. However my nutrient instructions start on week 1, so I assume it’s ok. Does anyone have any suggestion as to when I should apply nutrients to the water? I’m growing in a 3gal pot.
