Hey SB, welcome to the forum! I started growing a year before you did, and I grow hydroponically. It would be nice to see some pics of your grow, and if you're asking about defoliation, I go by what Nebula recommends here: https://www.growweedeasy.com/defoliation

i did a search... i apologize if these have already been addressed.
i have been reading this site since August 2017. just become a member of the boards today...

I am a retired and disabled soldier, i started growing in august 2017 when we moved to Colorado and i found this website. i tend to keep my crops 4 to 6 plants.
i have 1515W in a 4x6x8 grow space i built in my garage with portable AC.

Currently running 5 plants in 7 gal pots.
Bubba Kush x 2
Afghani #1 x1 (was 2 but 1 failed to get passed coming out of the ground. )
OG kush x1
all above purchased from Seed supreme
Black Russian x1 (friend gave it to me so i re-vegged it as it was 2 weeks into flower and i was still 2 weeks into veg.)
that allowed me to veg my other 4 a little longer

light distance - i have had LED as close as 10" (leaves curled realized bad after the fact.)
Currently running all 3 - 1 CMH and 2 LED at 30" no closer than 24"

NANOLUX 315w CMH - ???
Viparspectra 600W LED - ???

Defoiling- i am swaying to 1 time a week larger shade leaves and nothing else. up to week 3 of flower then leaving until flush week. so i can defoil 1 if i do it again end of this week 2 Flower.
When - ??
When Not - ??

Feeding in Coco - I tend to feed every 48 to 72 hrs based on pot weight (i transferred from Fox Farms Ocean so that mentality stuck)
I have read i should be feeding daily - this makes me nervous...
i hand mix each gal of water/feed. usually 5 to 6 individuals
i dont bulk mix makes me nervous on having to much nutrients. the individual mixing is therapeutic.

As with everything this whole cannabis growing is as several stated before personal preference, what works for you and your life.
i will take all advice and use what i can and thank everyone in the process.

Thank you again,
AB

Are you growing indoor or outdoor? This is such a open ended couple of questions.

Spellbound This clarifies a lot for me: I didn't know who was preparing my oatmeal and coffee every morning!!!!!

How are the plants fed and watered?

At first this is up to you but with time, patience, understanding and love you can train your plants to feed and water themselves. With enough time you can even train them to cook for you (but always check to make sure they turned the oven off because Cannabis plants are kind of forgetful)

Is special growing equipment required?

Can Blacklights be used for Growing?

[oldjarhead100]

smaller pots equal smaller yields , you can control height by topping and tying down

I want to use smaller vases because the tent is short (1,6m)
