Duggsterstarted grow question 4 years ago
I've read a bit on the different techniques people use to promote more growth as the plant gets bigger and was wondering if I should be doing the same. Would just love some clarification here as some people are saying to leave it alone, while others are saying the opposite.

Cannabis is a canvas. Don't be afraid to make mistakes.. you might just grow ;)
All plants on my page are autoflowers, and none of them would be as they are, if un-trained...
Plan for the best scenario.. a healthy plant is barely affected by stress.
For a first time grow, I recommend to not train, so that you can see the progression of improvement gained by learning to train your plant for more main-colas. Feel free to ask me anything. Happy growing!

Auto flowers and photoperiods react differently- which is why you are probably hearing two different things.
Autos don’t handle stress well, it stunts them and keeps your harvests small. LST is the only thing I’d recommend
Photos one the other had are in the vegetative state longer, and can therefor handle and recover better from the stresses of topping, fim’ing and the like.
Hope this helps. Happy Growing 🌱

Harvest questions.Hello, I wanted to know if these look like they are ready for harvest or should I wait. The say it's ready when the pistels are milky white and amber but some of them aren't fully developed. Do I wait till those develop or when the majority are mature? Thanks in advance! 8wks old

Defoliate?Should I defoliate? As you can see in the pics, only the very top two nodes are growing fans, but it is getting crowded up on the canopy. The growth in the middle is from bottom branches that didn't stretch all the way up to the canopy, might use those for edible extraction.

Defoliate more?Should I defoliate more? side branching is intense and I'm not sure if it will result in larf or actual nug. Trimmed a lot of the weak looking side braching that was not exposed to light. Still looks rather bushy for my liking but I don't want to stunt them or reduce yields.Week 7

Excessive nodes and autoflowersMy plants have SO SO many nodes. In my opinion they have way way too many branches. Is there anything at all I could do as far as cutting/pinching, some of them off? They’re autoflowers and I’ve only really found people saying don’t do it.
