Do I trim autos?
Professor_Daankstarted grow question 4 years ago
Do I even bother trimming autos? If so, what is safe to get rid of? I know it's not time yet, but I'm getting all my ducks in a row. 😀

Just do some LST and let them go my friend! Tuck leaves when you can to open bud sights but I wouldn’t cut any unless they are dead! Hope this helps & happy growing friend!✌️🏼🌱

Don't listen to these other guys! Think for yourself! Don't be afraid to make mistakes, and push the envelope!
I train my autos heavy. Here's my most recent example of how I start my plants off, for big yields: growdiaries.com/diaries/68030-fastbuds-strawberry-pie-auto-grow-journal-by-basementganja
Feel free to ask me anything.

Нет, бро! Никаких обрезок autoflower, если не хочешь уменьшить себе урожай и иметь проблемы с развитием растения! autoflower нет любит стресс на вегетации, он больше переносит стресс на предцвете и цветении! Никаких обрезок и издевательств! 👆
Удачи, бро! ✊😇

Remove leaves from auto?Should I remove fan leaves from my auto flower? I wonder since it is so crowded, I worry a bit that the leaves are pressing against the buds. But maybe that isn't a problem? I've read that removing leaves is unnecessary and stressful for the plant.

So many leaves! Should I defoliate even more?I defoliated just before and even during the first week of flowering, but she keeps growing so many leaves even during the second week of flowering.
Should I defoliate right now or wait a couple of weeks? I worry I could halt the flowering or cause even more useless stress...

Northern Lights Auto, quite short and bushy, fan leaves shielding light - should I defoliate?First time grower with a quite short Northern Lights Auto in week 6. The fan leaves seem to shield a lot of light from the inner leaves, also touching ground. Should I trim the fan leaves? Or should I keep them, since it already seems stressed enough for it's short life…

Tops spacingMy plant is really tight for space between tops. I'm trying not to disturb her anymore. I really don't want to cut anymore off but the foliage is getting insane. My question is do my tops have enough space or do I need to find a way to spread out more, and should I defoliate?
