    How much should I trim before flower?

    Just let them grow. Mine get pretty crowded and its never been an issue. Just make sure you have good circulation. If you really do see problems you can pull a plant or 2 in the future. Should flip to 12/12 as soon as you can though. Edit: found this pic from last year, its hard to tell...

    Looks like there was some very nice bud. Wish I could have made it but had to work. Any idea when next one will be?

    How much should I trim before flower?

    Well I did a side by side with 2 clones and saw the difference in yield firsthand that comes with removing leaves. Maybe it was just that strain, but it was about 1/3rd less total yield and airy buds from removing the upper fan leaves. Wont be posting anymore here, you have your opinion and I...

    How much should I trim before flower?

    Except that you're removing the upper leaves. These are the newer leaves. The older ones would be the fan leaves at the bottom. It even states that in the link you pasted so I dont see how that applies here. And you're still ignoring the fact that the lower leaves are not 100% shaded from...

    How much should I trim before flower?

    Topping is not the same as what OP is talking about. I top all of my plants. Removing all the fan leaves or even some of them is not topping. Its not a "theory" either. If you think that thin little leaf is enough to block all light penetration then I dont know what to tell you. This isn't...

    How much should I trim before flower?

    Because those smaller leaves are farther away from the light and are collecting less energy. Those lower leaves at best have the same amount of surface area as the upper leaves. So if you have 2 sets of leaves that are essentially the same amount of surface area but are collecting weaker...

    How much should I trim before flower?

    Why do you think that the fan leaves use more energy than they collect, or think 3x the amount of smaller leaves farther away from your light source are more efficient at collecting energy than those 10-15? You're removing large leaves that are already grown and dont require much maintenance...

    First attempt at an Organic grow with self watering system

    Plants are 10 weeks old and 23 days into flowering. I added a second 250w light to give the plants a little more light to work with. Other light is a 600w. Closeup of one of the Floja's. Started turning purple after the 1st week of flowering. One of the Coast 2 Coasts

    Colorado Plant Counts

    Unless you plan on going over your plant count, why is more scrutiny a concern? Do you think they'll fuck with people that are growing over 6 even if they have an extended plant count? Wife and I each have a 12 plant card and haven't been too worried about it. I figure that is still on the...

    Water only soil build for 3 gallon pots

    I think it will also depend on how long you veg for. If you keep veg time short you might be able to get away with it. I'm running with only 1g pots (will be moving to 2 or 3g for next run). Added a little top dress when going in to flower to make sure I wouldn't run in to any issues.. I'm...

    First attempt at an Organic grow with self watering system

    Was able to identify sex on all plants today. Ended up with 10 females out of 18 so not too bad. Both of my biodiesels were male again, so had terrible luck with those....all 12 in the pack being male. Ended up with: 4 x Coast 2 Coast 4 x Floja 2 x Lost Tribe The 2 tallest on the right...

    Please Critique My Water Only Soil Recipe

    I think it should be fine, but Im no expert. Just know what I used in mine and it's working really well so far with water only.

    Please Critique My Water Only Soil Recipe

    Add some more rock dust if you can. I believe the recommendation is 2-4c per Cu Ft. This does not count towards your 2-3 cups of amendments. Amendments only includes your meals and fertilizers. The liming (1c / cf) and rock dust have their own recommendations. If you haven't bought any of...
