When to top an auto? I've heard after the 5th node is best but I'd like to hear what everyone thinks/does. This lady will be getting topped it's just a matter of when. Thanks

Hello ! The 5th node is the best to me too (between 5th and 7th) but some hardcore main liners are toping them after the 3rd node ( sometimes after the second but I would never do so) to build a flat cannopy. Why not try a supercroping ? it would have a similar effect and you will stress her less than with a topping. I hope it will help you 😁👍

Entlauben Tag 22 since sowing: Should I defoliate or not.. And a second question: Is flowering starting at the moment? If yes, when should I defoliate...? I've already tied the young side shoots outwards. I would really appreciate a few tips, as mentioned this is my first indoor autoflower grow!
