Hello Professor, I’ve been growing for about a year now and I’m getting a lot better, but one problem I have is with bending and training my plants. Whenever I tie a branch down, or bend a top over the gardening wire that I buy at the store, the wire cuts into the plant like…
Hello Professor Lee, I’m sitting in my house looking at a pack of auto-flowering feminized Kush seeds.

Professor, I grow on an upstairs balcony that gets a ton of sunlight and the plants absolutely love it. The problem is that I don’t want them to grow above the wall where the whole world can see them. What would be the best way to prune or train them so that I can keep…
Dear Professor Lee, I over fertilized my plants! I flushed them with 4 gallons of water but that was 24 hours ago. I used a high-nitrogen fertilizer made for sweet corn. I used 25% fertilizer and 75% water thinking it would be fine. Sorry if I bothered you. Any advice? Another Lee Hello Another…
