Aggressive defoliaton. yes or no?
Hello everyone, What do you think? 2nd defoliation was too aggressive or is it ok? I'm a little bit nervous. See last 7 photos of week 6.

I defoliated and removed lower, small, shaded bud sites during the first 3 days of flower. Was it a bad move considering the plant is bushy as heck and hasn’t stretched yet? Left about 25 « tops » (2 actual main colas) with some growth right underneath. Did I hurt my future yield

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 ! :)

I am currently defoliating my plant gradually. But I worry that I am not doing enough/too much. Could the grand masters here help me by taking a look at my latest entry (Week 13) and see if I'm doing this right? Do I need to further defoliate? Or is this enough?

Since stretch is over, and it's just about bulk at this point, let's hear your yield estimates.

Do I trim autos?

I have my light dimmed down but also lower to get a lux reading around 25000. According to the HLG conversion calculator it's putting me around 364ppfd. Is this acceptable or is my light placement/setting going to affect my plant negatively?

Is some light defoliation required or should I let them live freely?
All my plants are bushy and it's a struggle to get them all aligned so all the flowers are in the light. I don't know if some defoliation should/can be done? Or just leave them be and just stick with rotating them daily? Or tie the branches to the main stem? If that's a thing

So this is my first grow. I mixed my growing media 2 parts peat moss to 1 part fox farm ocean forest in five gallon pots. I am wanting to grow organic and have an all purpose 4-4-4 fertilizer and my other fertilizer is 2-5-3. My question is when should I start to amend with a top dressing and how much of each fertilizer should I use? Thanks for the help and this platform.

Alright - I need to know, is it time to harvest or close to? I have some photos in my diary that show some dark amber trichomes, a fair bit I'd say.

There is alot of articles on what to look for in your plants when they are ready for harvest, i am trying to determine what i should be looking for at 2 weeks prior to harvest so i know when to stop nutrients and start with straight water flush for harvest!
