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

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?

When to start defoliating
Defoliating plants? When do you guys generally start stripping back leaves? And are they worth keeping at vegging stage? Just for context, very light LST, so no lollipoping etc. Cheers

Nodes and Leaves that don't receive light, cut off ?
So my plant has grown pretty big in last few weeks and theres just alot of leaves ans nodes that i think are useless to the plant because they barely get any light, and bending them towards the light doesnt work because they grow too slow. CAN and/or SHOULD i cut them off ?

Share your mutant experience! I have a three-leafed beauty!
Whorled phyllotaxy, apparently! Definitely a sign of good fortune :) Did some reading up and my impression is that there's nothing special to be done about this, including feeding regimen. Maybe I should build a hexagonal tent for her? 😁 Share your experience and urban legends

When can I start with lolipoping? I am asking because the strains have hell a lot of leaves, the branches are already touching the wall of the growbox. I don't know if it's good if the branches are touching the wall, or do they need some distance to the wall?!

I have 3 leaf problems. Look at the Day 26 pictures. The leaf closest to the fan has two tones. A closeup on day 25. The tip of one is yellow. Furthest from the fan, a leave has brown spots (I'm thinking a water drop caused a burn). Thoughts? Also, how do I raise the humidity?

Defoliating the auto on the late flowering stage
The canopy is very dense with a huge amount of small leaves I can't tuckle because of their size. It's a deep stage of flowering. So I wander is it safe to cut 30-50% of leaves to improve light penetration or it would be better to leave it as is?

Blätter und Triebe im Zentrum meiner Lady
Jetzt muss ich doch nochmal nachfragen. Im Zentrum meiner Lady sind die Blätter sehr dicht und manche Triebe werden verdeckt. Sollte ich jetzt vielleicht doch besser ein paar Blätter aus der Mitte entfernen? Vielen Dank für eure Unterstützung

Defoliating Autos in week 7 after stretch
I defoliated my AK420 Auto in week 7 and took at least 1/3 off in order to expose bud sites. Do you like it? Would you defoliate even more? Or do you refrain from defoliating autos at all?

How many tops did I make here, and how/why?
So I topped last week, now this doesn't look right! 😅 why is there new growth from the main stem? I topped my Gorilla Cookies and this wasn't the result. What did I do? What will the result be? Please indulge me. Thank you 💚

Should I do a pre harvest defoliation a week before harvest?
What are the benefits and consequences of defoliating a week before harvest? Is it good or bad? I have tons of foliage up top and need it to go away. It's too late in flower, but a week before will open up the canopy to the lower bud sites. Any and all help is welcome. Thanks!

Weird growth
This plant keeps growing in a weird way, the main stem is not straight and the new stems are not symmetric as normal. I've had similar growth problems on beginning of my other Blue Bullet grow, can this be only genetic problems?
