Couple of important questions!

So question 1.
How do you use the Velcro flaps on the bottom
Of your grow tent, especially during flower do you keep it open while lights are on then close when lights off? How long do you keep them
Open?

question 2.
If your buds are heavy and stems with buds are leaning what’s the best solution that doesn’t damage roots to much?

question 3.
Can you complete a grow without PK13/14?
I’m entering week 7 on the 11th May and feel like I’ve left it to long to use the PK. They are a 7 week strain but from my opinion will definitely be longer than 7 weeks before harvest.

#1. Velcro straps are for extra air flow. Can be used to intake air if there’s no intake fan.

#2. Get a trellis net or bamboo sticks to support the stems if they can’t support the buds weight.

#3. P and K are absolutely necessary. This is what the plants need the most during flower.

Only issue is with question 2 I should
Have mentioned is that I did not realise how big my plants would grow so have a slight over crowded situation not to bad but enough that I can’t remove the drained water from the back plant with out slightly lifting the pot to remove water and place dry tray back in.

to the pk do you think I can still use the next time
I feed them just making sure their is enough time
To flush?

I do the same thing as far as removing the tray to dump the runoff, no biggie. Unless you have a water vac I’m not sure how else to remove the water. And I wouldn’t stress the PK at this point, wont really have any benefit considering how far along you are. By the time the plant tries to utilize it, you’ll be getting ready to chop. Out of curiosity, why was there no PK added during the grow?

I was using canna A+B and really did not understand the chart at first apart form they are to strong so I used a light feeding schedule, I’ve been so caught up on the grow conditions right amount of light RH all that and totally forgot I had pk13\14 in the cupboard but the chart says to use pk13/14 in the last 3 weeks before flush and I think judging by the photos I shared I have at least 4 weeks left so was just wondering how much to use at this stage as the canna chart states once 3 weeks before flush

I use a shop vac to remove any runoff. It wouldn't be fun trying to lift 15 gal pots.
