Hey dude - those brown rust spots aren’t aphid related, it’s actually the start of a calcium deficiency. Add a calmag supplement as part of your nute regimen (1ml/L will suffice) and it won’t be an issue. You can use calmag all the way up to last weeks of flower if needed. Although I usually cut out calmag around 3-4 weeks prior to chop. Can’t tell from the photos that you’ve got an aphid problem although the mottled and curled leaves can be a sign of pest stress. If you do then it’s a problem that will not go away easily and may very well not at all. Once those little fuckers dig in and have their first mating cycle you’re gonna have to deal with em to the end. IMO best way to handle these little bastards is by releasing a shit ton of lady bugs into the tent. They’ll keep the numbers down and are very effective next to almost all other options.

I do it. When it gets to bushy crazy i remove everythingbthat are griwing inwird. Sucker shoot groing inward befor they get big and really in thevway and inward ponting leaf. Thuscway i can get better air flow while maintaining the canopy at a manageble shape.. like ither mention. Its better to do small at a time. Try and understand where and how a leaf or a branch will grow and how it will interact in the future, and overtime yiu'll get goid at removing undesirable branchung befir they developoe and wast time and energy. Rule of thumb. If it aint blocking anything then it is more then likely useful and catching something..

You absolutely can. In fact, there are many who stress defo in small bits vs. Giant single sessions. Selective pruning to free up growth tips and create better light exposure is a great option. I’d only temper that opinion with the knowledge that defoing in veg. Is kinda counter productive and should only be employed after other options such as leaf tucking and lst have been fully exhausted. Or for specific purposes such as in mainlining applications. But that’s a different topic altogether. For this plants part looks like a good job gett’n er bent over and spread out so clipp’n a couple leaves might help in your case👍. Best of luck with it.

Hello, yea you can do some defoliation but not too much, just do it to make the tops available for the light to penetrate so they can grow better. Hope it helps Good grow.

Personally I would keep them in veg until they fill 70% of the are and then flip them, after the first 3 weeks of flower they should fill the whole space giving you the best chance at a good yield. I would also defoliate before you flip to 12/12 to improve light penetration in the canopy. And if your feeling brave maybe one more time at 21 days flower. Looks like a good start though pal👍

That's entirely up to you and your grow space! 🤘😤

Keep training them all the way through the flowering stretch

Looks like nute burn causing a lockout. Get your pH and EC under control. In a perfect world, it would be about the same going in and coming out.

Different plants have different requirements. Just because they are getting the same watering and nutrients does not mean they will both grow the same way. The yellow one looks to me that she needs more feeding and watering than the others. Hope this helps,... Organoman.

Side note they've been getting fed at about 900ppm, about a gallon each once every 5-6 days
