@Buddy_McBudsworth, i'm use coco not soil, there is no need so much fan leaves. Fewer leaves mean more exposed buds and more trichomes. You can check my other report with Orange Bud, and see power of defoliation😄
Some beautiful ladies you got there in that tent. Tons of buds. Frosty as well. Nice work. Keep it up. Best of luck with the rest of the journey growmie.
You're plants look like thier doing really well, I'm also doing a Mephisto genetics strain - Auto S.O.D.K . I've defoliated it and it's doing pretty well tbf. Its pre flowering/ pre flower stretching. Happy growing
