based on picture 12/17, i'd leave it as is... the sun likely hits everyhting for plenty of time to power growth up and down that plant.. you are all good. if you do defoliate, leave at least 1-2 leaves at any 1 node.. open up from top-down. you are trying to great a 360-degree sphere of light hitting all levesl of the plant -- but don't sacrifice ... no leaves at nodes = crap growth until it grows back. even crappier bud growth - ignoring all other factors.

Imo, I wouldn't thin anything out.. you'd be surprised at the penetrating power of the sun.. and all those leaves are powering that growth. If it's yellowing or dying off get rid of it, but other than that my friend just let her grow! Happy growing!👊

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!

Can I remove 1 leaf?I've got 2 bud sites that are covered by 1 leaf, I'm itching to take that one leaf away to expose those budsites as I can't bend it out of the way because the stem is still too short, will this shock the plan at a critical stage? Am I better waiting a few days?

Should I try to further defoliate in the middle and lower parts of the plants to let more light to all budding sites? The plants are extremely bushy and it is difficult to reach into the middle to remove leaves.

Defoliate or not yet?The breeder (AutoSeeds) says they work better if you don't LST to much and focus on the main cola. Should I select a few of the large leaves and defoliate them to get more light in the middle. Just don't want to pick the wrong ones. Hope I have enough images to help you help me.

Bigger leaves shading lower branches??As you can see in my last photos (DAY 28) plants are developing lower side branches. Should I get rid off the larger leaves which shade the lower branches? I already tried to bend down the larger leaves to make room for the lower branches. What do you suggest? Veg for 15 more day

Too many colas? (Serious)I'm scared that I have too many colas. I have to continuously trim leaves to avoid humidity hotspots. The internodal distance is super short. All branches are stripped from all leaves except the ones visible from above (3-4). I am afraid that the buds won't have enough space
