You can defoliate without much worry up until the third week of flower.. after that i'd stop until your about to harvest.. Just make sure you have a reason is it covering a bud site and you can't tuck it down and away? then cut it! Happy growing!

Yes of course. Especially in veg state. Just stay away from the leaves near the bud sites.

A lot of red pistils and leaves dying around bud
She feels very dry and looks dead - there’s still a sticky feeling to her and her trichomes are there. This is the only place om the plant affected this badly... is this reason to chop? She looks more normal further down the stem.

Grow pot
Bonjour bonsoir la communauté, je me questionne au sujet des rempotages. Je compte démarrer avec un pot de 0.52L après 7 à 10 jours passer à un pot de 3.25L pour ensuite passer à un pot final de 11L. Ma question: puis-je sauter l'étape pot de 3.25L? Ou direct dans pot final ?

Removing "suckers" on autoflowers
I have these smaller growths on the lower part of my plant. They haven't really stretched out at all. I read that these smaller growths can suck available energy for the other buds. Can I cut these or just leave them and forget about them?

Should I be worried about my plants looking so droopy after dark period?
I am running 20/4, after about 18 hours the leaves stop praying, gradually start to droop until it's worst point through dark period. When lights come on, I water them, within an hour they perk up. Humidity drifts up around 10% during this time also and temps down 6-8 degrees F.
