There is no set amount, just what I think is right at that moment in time. Some get defoliated more than others depending how well the light is getting in. I just gently pinch them off.

I defoliate as I apply the LST. I am only on my second and third run of Autos and I take any leaves that are blocking potential top shoots. I have no idea that is good, bad or otherwise. I don't top them. My first run is starting to finish now and the results look promising. They could be...

Looking good. I wish mine were as good as that after 21 days.

I wet trim because I find it easier. YMMV.

After many years of Scrogging I have stopped doing that in favour of topping and LST in the form of manifolding.

I am doing my first run with fabric pots. I have them side by side with identical plants in plastic pots, so I can see any differences between the two. My plan was to wash them in the washing machine on a normal cycle. I have opted to get heavy duty woven pots hoping they would last longer...

No you don't have to transplant them. Germinate them by your chosen method, some people do that on wet paper towel and put them in their final pot once rooted. Other plant them directly into the final pot and some use Jiffy plugs. Personally I use small seedling bags in a heated propagator on...

I have taken to putting a few MM of perlite at the bottom of the pot.

For the price you can get a smart bulb and clip on fitting for it isn't worth the hassle.

I give mine a couple of weeks in fresh soil on just water, let them get established. Then I will give them a 25% dose of grow nutes with a touch of Epsom Salt until they pre flower and from then on I use flowering nutes at first at 25% working up to 50%. When they show signs of finishing I...

How? Is that better than a normal plastic pot or a fabric pot?

Looks like the decision has been taken out of my hands.

Flushing agent. Really?

I have a mate that grows on a commercial basis. This is against the law. He thinks he is so smart and has all the anti smell gear. I always know when he has harvested as I can smell it 100yds away when I walk the dog.:D I grow on a very small basis. I have a little tent with some clip on...

I am a self employed delivery driver, non essential products, I am considering just sacking it for a few weeks.

One of my kids is Y11. They are going to be doing Microsoft Teams lessons from 8am on Monday 4th and she goes back on the 11th. The rest of the school go back on the 18th, I have another kid in Y6 and she goes back on Monday, but I am going to seriously consider not sending her. How can it...

TBH it all makes little difference to me. I have always kept myself to myself. I never really went to the pub or cinema anyway and I work for myself, by myself. I am just waiting for the letter that says come and get vaccinated. I harvested some nice weed just before Christmas, it is dried...

I have been growing for over 20 years. I used to grow using all the fancy pants nutes and grow mixes. Then I met this guy that had been growing since the 60s and he told me to treat them like tomatoes. So for years I used to use soil from tomato grow bags, as I can get it for £9 for 120...

I was in tier 1 before boxing day, now tier 3.

Sadly, we are in tier 3. There aren't even any pubs open. But Happy New Year all the same.
