EC is too high, it's a mix of lockout and nute burn, dial it back; a lot. Try at 1.0 EC

Lot's of malformations. Second pair of leaves never appear. Then two heads... maybe a natural topping? There are little bulbs everywhere... she's lost? I prefer to wait but I don't know.

Dear reader, I have 3 plants: the one with the blue badge is looking good but the other 2 are short in my opinion. They have lots of leaves and branches but they are like 12 cm high. Is this a problem? Solution? (Lights higher maybe?) Thanks!

Stickstoffüberschuss?
Habe bei meiner Auto das Problem das sie kaum in die Höhe wächst, dazu die Flecken auf einem Blatt. Ich habe aber das Gefühl das die anderen Blätter auch zu dunkel sind? Vielleicht wächst sie wegen einem Stickstoffüberschuss nicht mehr?Sollte ich erstmal ohne Dünger gießen?

Should I defoliate?
Hello everyone my plant has grown VERY bushy and the fan leaves are crowding together and turning each other upside down. (See second pic) So I was wondering if I should just take off the fan leaves from the secondary shoots.

Popcorn/ mini branches keep/remove?
Buds are tiny not fattening at week 6. I also have lots of popcorn nugs. Being first growth not sure to remove them or keep them at this late in flowering (week 6), might stress the girls out or might even help fattening buds? Should i clean up the leaves as well?

Has anyone experienced growth similar to specimen 2. (s.2) It's 95% not a pH issue; so if that's your solution just keep it to yourself lol.

Looking at other plants, mine seems to be full of big leaves and prevents light to prime bud sites. Growing an auto with the lowest amount of stress I can give I am wondering if I should trim the leaves that prevent the most light to prime areas. Thank you

Leaves look strange
The leaves on Lemon Punch C & Sweet Gelato have a very strange formation. They seem to have no real order and are pretty tiny. Is this due to the high winds or what can it be?

Hello fellow growers! So, i heard that removing the big leaves from the plant at the beginning of flowering stage is good because it will help for the buds. Is it true? Its my first time having it right and i dont want To screw everything. Thank you ! :) Your canadian buddy, D

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!

All 3 of these seem to have different issues, have labeled the pics with the different plant, also got this one: https://growdiaries.com/diaries/10809-northern-lights-auto-fem-g13-labs with similar issues, not sure if those pictures will help as well.
