I have two questions… First is about defoliation. I am in week 5 of flower and have already defoliated the plants between weeks 2-3 however; they have become very bushy again. Should I continue to defoliate the plants or just leave them as they are? Second question is in regards to tent space and yield. I currently have three plants in a 2x4 tent with a very full canopy. I believe two plants could fill the same space and perhaps even improve my yield by giving each plant more space to grow. Is it possible to get more yield from fewer plants?

Without access to a generator, is there anything that we can do in event of a power outage to help keep the plants alive? Luckily, the power was not off very long and mostly in the dark cycle of early flower. I had a 10” battery operated fan that I hooked up to keep the air moving. I used a Green LED headlamp to set that up since it was in the dark period. The Temps started to drop as well so I dug out a kerosene heater and was about to fire it up when the power came back on. Has anybody else had this issue? Without access to a generator, is there anything else that could be done or any other equipment that would help?

The humidity is high outside and hitting 65% in my house currently. I'm struggling to keep it down and moving into 1st week of flower. The one suggested on this site is no longer available. I hope to keep it under $100. Suggestions?

I plan on running a carbon filter (AC Infinity) in the tent and the ducting will require very few bends. I plan to vent out of a window with a Vent Works 6" dryer vent. I am thinking it would be better to run a 6" fan at 402cfm at 1/4 speed than a 4" fan at 205cfm at 3/4 speed. I also thought about getting a high cfm kit for the tent just in case. Do you think this is a good idea or should I stick with a 4" ventilation setup?
