Defoliating is like removing a lung wing from an athlete and expecting him to set a new world record.
I would only use it as a last resort if the leaves are blocking airflow, making it easier for mold etc.

Hey,
Yes you can defoliate. You’ve already done some LST, great job!
You now can see what growth has been exposed and what growth is going to be shaded out.
Clip off anything that’s not fully exposed the light and your basically going to get the lady to shoot into a growth spurt, allowing you to tie out wider and tie down the lower growth as it catches up.
Happy growing :)!

You can definitely defoliate at this age, but your plants look pretty open with nice light penetration. Not much blockages from what i can see.
But if you're wanting to "top" or do some other defoliation training methods your definitely a good age.

My Girl's Gone Rogue with 10cm of Frosty Goodness!My lady decided to shatter the whole "week 10 harvest" and instead shoot 10cm, packing new flowers whiter than a yeti's behind in a blizzard!
This genetic curveball beats me.
Do I let her keep this frosty stretch, or do I harvest and let this mutant masterpiece become a solo act

Nitrogen Toxicity?Not sure if this is nitrogen toxicity or normal leaf color. Crinkling was caused by too much light and the fan. Got better in 24h after adjusting grow light and fan. Plants are starting week 2 of veg, Hulkberry Auto. Medium is light mix soil.

Day 49 autoflower huge and not yet flowering. Help!Day 49 autoflower not flowering? She's huge and I'm running out of room in the tent (58" and my tent is only 6 ft). Should I flip the tent to 12/12? Do I then keep it 12/12 the rest of the grow? How will that affect the Day 30 plant? Should I add 2nd light for smaller plant?

Autoflower on day 47 with no sign of flowering. So. Many. Fan Leaves! I'm ready to uproot and start over!I'm on Day 47 and absolutely no sign of flowering from this auto. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. The temperature in that closet does get high as there is no AC in there and I live in the swampy South. 89.4 in the shade today. Did I get bogus seeds and this is a photo??
