I will go a step further....
At no stage in the plants development except very early will removing one leaf make any difference

Defoliation - AutoHey guys,
What do you think about defoliation? I’m growing two autos in one of my tents and they got huge. I wasn’t expecting. They are producing some buds in their lower parts and by consequence of the lack of light they are too small.

In a weeks time(when my stretch is over)I will defoliate a few fan leaves covering colas. So... how much should I cut, fan leaves higher or lower on the stem and what effect will this have on growth and yield? does time of day or time in the watering cycle of the cutting matter?Week 14

#3 had seeds at harvest (5). I don't know if she is a hermi or if one of my other plants is, or if my other plants were pollinated and I didn't notice. She did have a big injury earlier in the grow. Any ideas what happened? I'm so confused and disappointed!Week 15

Defoliation?Day 21 of flower, do I need to do any further defoliation? Everything looks connected to a bud site so I'm apprehensive about removing anything else. Afraid of running into PM at some point as weather gets warmer and RH rises. At 45-55rh now. May get a small dehumidifier soon.Week 9

Defoliate?Just repotted my baby after learning she may have too much nitrogen. Should I trim all the damaged leaves or should I wait until the plant gets stronger? Also, when will the stem become thicker? Is there something I can do?Plant. Stem - Weak

Good evening,
When looking at the trichs under a microscope, I am noticing basically just clear or clear with red tips, and no cloudy trichs like my last grow.
I don't want to go much longer, the buds look great. Any ideas? Can I harvest part now and some later with autos?Week 11

Using a 48x48x80 tent in my basement. Humidity is reading 30%. Have tried all the tricks to raise it and it does temporary then lowers quickly. Reading so much conflicting info. Would a humidifier work in my tent? If so, please point me towards one to purchase. Thanks!Week 2

Do you think I need to change my watering? I has 3 plants in a 30 gallon tub of super soil. One was male and I cut it out after it showed sex about week 5 from seed. Should I stay on the same time schedule and less water or less frequently? It will be interesting .Week 4
