First grow ever

Flower week. Day 37 I did a flush with Fox Farms sledgehammer. Did a small amount of defoliation of the bottom fan leaves. Lights where left on for 24hrs and shut off. Before I shut them off I did a full feed with some open sesame. Lights where off for 48 hrs. Day 40 lights came back on found some stress on the leafs. Top leafs where yellow, shooting up and taco looking. By day 42 the yellow went away and everything. Looked good. Day 43 on one leaf I noticed it was glossy so I sprayed it down with Dr. Earths final stop. Will continue to spray just to be cautious before buds come out. So I’ve broken a few branches while doing some LST. Rookie move. But I’m learning. I just got to keep learning as I go. I was almost thinking of killing the grow but I shouldn’t be negative. It is my first time and I shouldn’t be too hard on myself.
