Defoliation is very useful to get better light, and airflow throughout your plant! It looks like you only really "selectively de-leafed" her though.. if you truly defoliated her, she would look naked :)

Should I cut the first leaves to maximize the grow Hello everyone A friend told my that I should cut the first leaves of my plants (the first that came out from the plants, not the cotyledons) What do you think about this idea ? And can this really maximize the size of the future buds ? Thank you for your responses ! :)

Thick canopy 1st time grower here in week 3 of northern lights auto the canopy is really thick and not very tall. I've seen others strip the leaves but they do that later in flower. Should I be worried or am I fine? What should I do?

Defoliate?Should I defoliate? As you can see in the pics, only the very top two nodes are growing fans, but it is getting crowded up on the canopy. The growth in the middle is from bottom branches that didn't stretch all the way up to the canopy, might use those for edible extraction.

Auto(not)flowering One of two autoflowering plants loves producing leafs but not buds. They are both in week 7. One is doing great. But the White Widow is behaving differently. I'm not sure if I should reduce light time, because the other plant seems to like it as it is. What do you think? Thanks!

Defoliation, is it worth it? It’s the start of week 5, my 3 plants are growing in a tight tent and the leaves are starting to cross between them. I’m worried that the smaller plants won’t get enough light but I’ve never defoliated before and I am nervous to try. any advice? :)

Since nobody has suggested anything anywhere what I want to know is this How do you retain the volume in buds during drying? We all know they lose weight which is fine but keeping the same size now that’s my question (if that makes any sense)

I was rotating the plants, a little ocd action and accidentally supper cropped a cola. Seems to be doing ok and not worried about it. My question is this ok to do deliberately in flower and increase yeild or should it be avoided after a certain amount of weeks into flower?

Adding two more plants 2x4 tent I wanted to start two more plants, but I'm just wondering what kind of problems I might run into having different autos at different stages ie. Light height, older plants blocking out the young 1s etc Just wondering if there is something I haven't thought of. Any advice?

So... in the middle of week 5 I've noticed tiny pistols on my plants. I wonder if I should change feeding to bloom nutrients? If yes, should I flush it with AN Flawless Finish first for few days or go straight to blooming food? Appreciate any suggestions ;) Regards to y'all!

Flowerin/Preflowering/Showing Sex in Vegative stage?Today I noticed all my outdoor plants have pistils after being 3-5weeks outside. Is this normal and will they continue veg due to increasing days/temps? Also, could this be reversed with additional light? Currently in the 7th week of Spring with 14h light and 13h sunrise.

Too much trimming up top?I read defoliating throughout week 3 of flower is around the last time you should trim. I cleaned up the bottom real well, but Do you think I trimmed too many fan leaves up top? A lot my bud sites have one fan leaves and the nodes under it have none at all?

Hey guys, I'm just wondering if the discoloration I got going on is just the end of the harvest or is it something I need to take care of? Also would you say I'm fine to start flushing this weekend? Or would you wait?
