Depending on how much height you have left from your light to the top of the canopy. Plants tend to double in size .

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.

What do you guys think about the leaves curling sideways like a pin wheel? I thought they would straighten out as the grew, but they're not. Not sure if the next set of leaves are going to do the same thing or not, they're too small. Only strain out of 4 doing it.

Should I defoliate light-blocking leaves from my NL auto?
My NL auto is at D40 and is growing well. She's developing a good lot of cola's with nice bud sites. Up untill now I've been able to tuck the leaves away, but it's getting more difficult to keep all bud sites cleared as she keeps growing. Should I tactically defoliate?

Top Fanleafes shading plant
I topped and two days later I broke off the new main shoots, but I should now cut off the large fan leaves because they shade everything underneath. The plant seems to have recovered well from the stress. Should i Cut ?

The leaf twisting and contorting i'm seeing in the first set of true leaves; is that due to incorrect PH(my tap water has 7.7 ph)? Also the discoloration on my 4AM #3's second set of true leaves(only one has the discoloration), can anyone tell me what that is? Is it bad?

To defoliate/prune autoflower on day 42?
I’m trying to defoliate as little as possibly on this run. Would you give this auto a haircut or prune more lower branches on day 42 regardless?

Defoliation Advice
Should I start pulling the leaves at the bottom that are yellowing/dying? I've read that first time growers shouldn't attempt defoliation on the first grow.
