Hi guys and girls! Tell me how you plant. I doubt that the leaves are wrong. #1 can see light spots. In daylight there is no such thing, Only under the LED it can be seen. NAMASTE 🙏

From what i can see the plants looking alright, LEDs can play funny tricks with lights, they can also be notorious for light burn as there are so many varieties. Personally if there is damage it doesnt appear too severe yet. Perhaps lower lights to 18 hours for more rest. Otherwise examine other potential excesses or deficiencies. From the photos your medium looks fairly dry...i dont know if this is a common occurance or photos just taken before watering. I had a plant suffer from chronic irregular watering practices and it caused a variety of issues discoloration, leaf damage etc. I hope we can see some photos soon without the led so we can all get a bigger idea of the possibilities. Happy growing and keep up the good work, growing cannabis can certainly have its hard frustrating moments. ✌️

The eternal question on auto flowers is to remove the leaves if the plants look healthy? in my cases?

Hello ! In your case you can remove 2 or 3 leaves that are blocking light to bud sites but after 4 weeks of flowering I would be careful with everything I remove from a plant. If your plant looks healthy It's easier for her to recover from pruning and if she's unhealthy you can remove damaged leaves but less than with a healthy plant (to me). You also have the possibilities to knit the leaves together ( I made a short video on Instagram to show how to do a leaves knitting ). I hope it will help you 😁👍

Hi @ChillumMafia! To me, defoliation is always a positive thing, if done slightly and intelligently. Things to consider: Is the plant leafy/bushy or not? Is the plant healthy? Which leaves are creating shades? Are shades hiding popcorn buds or potential big colas from the light? In your case, the plants are tall and all stems seem to have a good airflow, I don't see any big cola under a leaf, so maybe you could tuck a few leaves but there's no need for a serious defoliation. Hope this makes sense, keep us up-to-date and happy growing 👊

@ChillumMafia, A tiny dab of pine gum, deliberately collected for this purpose by handling live pine branches with leather gloves, can be applied to the underside tip of a center leaflet, and then attached to the opposite leaf, holding them both in a downward facing position. Smells great too. I originally thought to use superglue, but the acrid aroma told me NO NO NO I believe accelerated flower growth as a result of LST and defoliation has as much to do with room to grow and air flow than it does direct light. Whatever works, right?

@ChillumMafia,For sure you can tuck always( some) leaves that block the LIght. if you do it think that the plant tries to reproduce each grow ypu pick aside. In you case i see atm no reason for taking awyay leaves, between the nodes are a lot of pace and floer get enough light. greetings

@ChillumMafia,Oops I did not mentioned it but It's a daily method , you need to repeat every days of 2 days ✌️🏼 I know It's a bit time consuming but as I check my ladies daily it's not a big prob . If you don't want to repeat the same move every days you should consider to cut the leaves but according to me your plants structure does not really require a big defoliation you can even let them grow like they already are without harming your yield 🦎
