In my pursuit of growing denser & more potent buds, I'm trying to make improvements.
1) I only use fox farms products, soil, nutes, & additives. I've never used any other brand. However, I tend to nute on the lighter side. That is, I tend to give lighter dosages & only start using the nutes after about week 3 or 4......Should I nute with heavier dosages & start sooner? What about using molasses? I saw something like Humboldt molasses. What about using something other than fox farms for nutes, soil, additives, etc.?
2) I've noticed in photos that most growers tend to trim off the bottom 1/3 of the plant. I don't. I do trim off the dying water leaves. Should I begin trimming the bottom 1/3 of plant? I generally don't get much bud from that area from past grows anyways......Also, some plants have pretty large & healthy water leaves that seem to block light from better reaching the bottom of the plants. However, I don't trim those off....Should I?
Any help would be appreciated.
