A question to all you autoflower mainliners out there, how often do you defoliate, and to what extent? I trimmed the fan leaves off the bottom of the cola stems, should I take it higher?

Since nobody has suggested anything anywhere what I want to know is this How do you retain the volume in buds during drying? We all know they lose weight which is fine but keeping the same size now that’s my question (if that makes any sense)

Mainlining Question When should I start tying down my new mains? Should I let them grow out more? I feel like if I tie them to early they would just point up towards the light the next day and I would have to tie down again.

Alright, the Plants are doing great, the oldest one which is one week ahead of the others is ready soon. I normally just give tab water for a week before cutting the plant. Now my question: what do you think about flushing with Molasses, I red that somewhere online.

We have done a fair amount of defoliation and would like to know whether it would be safe and good for yield to go a little more drastic with it? We would also appreciate any general comments about nutrients and the plant itself?
