giant one in middle and to the angle right form there, maybe, could probably just bend that one.. you have a good spread. the idea is photosynthesis not only occurring in the canopy. it's fine, but you wan't get nugs as deep on the shoots if you let light hit some lower leaves -- leaves, not buds. If you think you can power a node or two deeper than currently, go for it... don't send light to floor or too deep that it won't produce much anyway. If unsue err on the side of leaving it alone. Could found two very similar vertical shoots and try 2 different ways and see what is best. Sometimes have to sacrifice a slight amount now for better future yields.

Is it safe to defoliate autoflowers? The short answer is ā€“ yes, it is. It is a risky technique, sure, but you can defoliate autoflowers as well. As long as you remember to remove leaves in the vegetative stage, youā€™ll do good. But, donā€™t even think of applying any technique in the flowering stage lest you want the plants to yield tiny amounts of cannabis. Why defoliate autoflowers? Good question. Why would you think of removing leaves to maximize yields? Especially autos? Well, you gotta do everything you can to get more buds. Thatā€™s the most straight-forward answer youā€™d get. While some growers stay away from defoliating completely, others swear by the yields they get. Hope this helps friend! Happy Growing! šŸ‘Š

I would say donā€™t remove more then 3 leaves a day. Unless you do a leave strip on day 50 I usually remove all the under veg that doesnā€™t get enough light. She looks great manšŸ’Æ She also looks healthy so you go that going for youšŸ™ŒšŸ™ŒšŸ™ŒšŸ¤˜šŸ¼šŸ¤˜šŸ¼šŸ¤˜šŸ¼
