Hi there! If those photos are after pics I think you did not take nearly enough to even call it defoliation. You did not mess up anything but I suggest that you remove whole lotta more of those leafs and try to focus on "lollipopping" (Remove lower 3rd) and the leafs that shades the growing tops 👌

Correct pictures? You can defol. Too much and its easy to do. Start at the top and always work your way down. Too much will hurt growth, yields, and stress the plant

Guys, thanks for all the responses. The last pictures I posted in week 8 were from a day before switching into flowering. 4 days later, I defoliated a whole bag full of fan leaves. I'll post that maybe today on week 9 :)

Yea you could of definitely pulled more off . You can defoliate any where from 1-3 week of flower because they are still growing at that time anything after that you can pluck off any big fan leafs blocking any colas

How much is the shit out of my plants? If you removed fan leaves that didn't get light I would say you are good but pictures will tell. From your week 8 photos they look great

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.

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!

One of my girls is showing signs of N tox so I'm going to drop nutrients for the next week and just feed plain PH'd water until a good runoff. My question is; during this week should I still be giving Bud Factor X, Big Bud, and Bud Candy? There isn't N in those.

On day 16 today. They seem to be a bit stunted, perhaps due to the cold. Wondering if I should I replant into bigger pots or wait another week? Especially the one on the left since it's an auto, it may start flowering in a couple of weeks.
