Plant looks healthy . Some new leaves aremuch ligheter green than older leaves and a few feel paper thin around lower down bud sites. Watering every two days. Change light from Mars pro 2 epistar 400w to hlg 135w v2 3500k for veg and flower. Defoliated for the first time. Scary

Some newer leaves from older stems looks almost bright green and paper thin comparrd to the deep green older leaves and some of the ones top look slightly discoloured at the tips. This is an af at week 7 of veg. No signs of flower as far as I know.

Hey Gteh420, Sgtoso is right, the newer growth is actually pre flower actually, so it's a good sign. should look like that before flowering, nothing to worry about. To induce flowering, keep the lights, or use both lights, cut out the veg nutes and switch to bloom nutrients, and use 10ml of molasses in your next feed, hopefully the nutrients will kickstart flowering. If they dont then change the light schedule, sometimes autos are not autos , it's rare but it does happen every now and then. You're seeing pre flowering so hopefully that's not your case and you can maintain the auto's light schedule. I would be careful using less light wattage as this might stress the plant and lead to hermie. Hope this helps ! 🚀

I defoliated quite heavily today. Using this plant to experiment on. Some leaves not looking too healthy color wise. In actually think it is starting to flower maybe? I see some white hairs growing out I think but not too sure.

So started flowering after flipping 2 weeks ago. Go auto... I heavily defoliated today as you can see above but I think there's room for more.

Wondering if I should further defoliated this plant. Not sure how much to remove. It is an auto but it grows aggressively. defoliated twice before and it always came back with a vengence but that was during veg Should I remove all leaves on the lower part? Leave just bud sites?

You already have fairly defoliate the lady you switch 2 weeks ago and she will probably stop to stretch soon so except if the lower leaves are blocking light there is no need to remove them and no need to defoliate more than that as she's not going to bounce back each time as her life time is limited by the auto genes. Let her start her flowering 😊

Well into flowering now but a bit slower than the gorilla glue in the same room . I'm concerned not enough light is getting through to the middle. I defoliated at the start of flower but maybe not enough . Will I cause harm if I start removing some leaves?

Added molasses 10ml per gallon last week and removed some family leaves at the top to make more room for light. Also tucked some inner leaves too. No pH adjustments needed at all it seems.

Super bushy plant but light seems to be making it's way through. Wondering if I should defoliate a bit. I don't want to interfere too much with flowering just seems like too many fan leaves compared to the other 3
