Abit late for this weeks entry, I decided to put my ladies into flower, thought they had grown enough, and was worried if I left them any longer, I'd run out of vertical space.
I did a quick defoliating just before switching them last Thursday, im glad I did, because there's so much more foliage now then there was before, will leave them for a couple more weeks and do another de-leaf.
I cant get over how quickly they've grown since the switch of lighting! My cash crop autos are well into flower now.
Everything seems healthy and happy, not to many issues this last week, just need more width on my tent, plants seem to be pushing up against the sides
Have upped some of the feeds, as I read feeding should be done twice a week? Once seems to be suiting my girls fine, so will stick with that.
Anyway that's it for this week, see you all next week
Peace

Different for everyone. At 4 weeks mine are close to going into flower. All depends how much room you have for the plants to stretch.

I see you grow in soil with BioBizz, so you don't have to do run off every time to avoid salt buildup. I usually water a bit lighter in the beginning, at that size I would probably give a liter every 2-3 days (when top 5cm of soil is dry). Once they're larger/ in flower, I simply water to slight run off, so usually around 10% of soil volume - for example for 15L pot 1,5L. I also grow in soil with BioBizz so you can have a look at some of my diaries for more precise reference, some have dates/amounts in the weekly notes.

Defoliating plants? When do you guys generally start stripping back leaves? And are they worth keeping at vegging stage? Just for context, very light LST, so no lollipoping etc.
Cheers

I usually do it twice during a grow. Once just before flipping the plants, this is mostly to improve airflow in my tent because I trim lower branches as well. I then do a second round about 3 weeks into flowering, this time to ensure the growing tips where the heads are forming are exposed to light.
As for your question, its stressful for the plants, so you should only do it when there is a reason for it, the only benefit to doing in the veg stage is to improve the airflow.

What I know about defoliating
1) not every plant needs it
2) not every plant LIKES it lol
Also on a more educated side , it takes a plant about 3 weeks in flower to actually switch to flower mode , so around 21-28 days of flower is the second defoli. What your trying to do is expose bud sites , there is also a hormone called auxins , when you defoli your increasing thah aswell.
Here was my go to site when I started . https://www.growweedeasy.com/defoliation
