I attempted topping on both my Northern Lights, and My Girl Scout Cookies. The Northern Lights went just fine, but when topping the GSC I nicked one of the Lateral Branches. What should I do to fix it?

I’m notsure you’d be able to get anything on there it’s a pretty small plant. But if you ever break a larger branch tape works well.

Depending on how much you broke, you could also cut a match and use it as a splinter

I’d put some blue painters tape around the nicked branch. You should be able to take the tape off in about a week.

So many leaves! Should I defoliate even more?
I defoliated just before and even during the first week of flowering, but she keeps growing so many leaves even during the second week of flowering. Should I defoliate right now or wait a couple of weeks? I worry I could halt the flowering or cause even more useless stress...

Remove leaves from auto?
Should I remove fan leaves from my auto flower? I wonder since it is so crowded, I worry a bit that the leaves are pressing against the buds. But maybe that isn't a problem? I've read that removing leaves is unnecessary and stressful for the plant.

How much to trim my bush?
I've created a fairly flat canopy but I have all this new growth a few nodes down from the top that just is not getting any light. I am not sure if I should leave it since its fairly close to the top or remove it.

Defoliation late in flower on Auto's
I like to defoilate, If I were to pick majority of the fan leaves off of these plants being Auto's, will they react or stress too much? I like to defoil near the end of flower to really push all the focus to the budsites. Happy Growing!

Defoliación cuándo aplicar?
A partir de que semana o nudo se puede empezar a aplicar la defoliación? Se tendría que hacer más cercano a la floración, o en mitad de la vegetación ya se puede? Gracias de antemano.

Trim side shoots @ week 3 flower?
I plan to do a final defoliation at the start of week 3 flowering. Lots of side shoots growing from the branches, should I snip those off during this final defoliation or will they produce decent buds? 4-way LST, 2 1/2’ diameter canopy

Everyday defoliation. Is this correct?
i'm making a scrog with 4 royal gorilla q they were topped twice. Usually I take 3 to 4 fan leaves from each plant a day, cut with scissors to prevent them from shading budsites. I do this every day. Is this correct or am I stressing the plant? they started blooming this week
