Maybe some sort of stress defence mechanism. Would be very interested to know how well this plant performs to the others. Could potentially be a genetic thing.

Fan leaves in early
I’m only 5 days into flower but could do with some fan leaves removing to let light in underneath. However I only just defoliated the day before flower roughly 6 days ago. Would it still be ok to clip a few off?

Currently 5 days since sprout on this girl, and come across an extremely weird mutation. I see no sign of a second node popping up. Has she topped herself?

Should I grow out this mutated week 2-3 Auto Ultimate?
Hi fellow growers of Jamaican tomatoes! I have this auto ultimate by dutch passion and it seems to have some kind of mutation. I think it is called a polyploidy, meaning it has more than 1 set of chromosomes. Do you think I should grow it out? Will it be ok with so many shoots?

Does this Gold Leaf auto need to be thinned or SCROG'ed?
Should I thin her out? Should I SCROG? Does she look healthy? I've done a lot of LST and water with a pH 6. She's a Gold Leaf autoflower at 7 weeks, 2 days.

Hi i know its early stages but the leaves on this plant are all twisted and bent out of shape. On top of this theres a white vein going through the middle of the leaves and the stem is generally very weak and nearly collapses with little air circulation. What should i do?

Is it a twin possibly?
One of my plants has been growing significantly slower than the others right from the get go, and then during this week I noticed how it finally popped it's second set of leaves, only there was two sets of leaves. So the question is, do I have a twin or is this just normal?

Wondering if I should defoliate? Seems to be contradicting opinions on defoliating autos, would like to have some feedback as this one has a LOT of leaves. Thanks!

Defoliating the auto on the late flowering stage
The canopy is very dense with a huge amount of small leaves I can't tuckle because of their size. It's a deep stage of flowering. So I wander is it safe to cut 30-50% of leaves to improve light penetration or it would be better to leave it as is?

Top Fanleafes shading plant
I topped and two days later I broke off the new main shoots, but I should now cut off the large fan leaves because they shade everything underneath. The plant seems to have recovered well from the stress. Should i Cut ?

How is it looking?
How are the plants looking? Adding a new light soon so they can get extra space, however im a bit worried as the fan leaves are growing huge shadowing the nodes. The strain is mother gorilla from RQS

Defoliation - 5th week flowering
Heey gardeners!! I'm into 5th week of flowering with three healthy beauties. After the stretch they got bushier than I first expected, and now I'm worried there's too much shade covering the buds. Should I defoliate them? How much and how should I approach? Thanks and stay high

Late trimming?
To trim or not to trim, that is the question! As I enter week 10 of my grow the canopy has be come a little crowded with some fan leaves and depriving some bud sights on much needed light. Is it ok at this late stage to clean up the canopy and remove these fan leaves? Cheers!
