I would in fact lst might be a little difficult as your stalk has gotten pretty sturdy so it may not want to bend easily. But I would atleast top or preferably fim the top to get those branches growing out

I’m about to go into week 3 flower in 3 days. My plants it seems have been less focused on stretch for the past couple days, more on growing the colas I would say. would start week 3 be a good time to do heavy defolia/lollypop?

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.

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!

How much to trim my bush?
I've created a fairly flat canopy but I have all this new growth a few nodes down from the top that just is not getting any light. I am not sure if I should leave it since its fairly close to the top or remove it.

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…

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...

I'm going into flowering stage soon and was wondering about defoliation of the lower leaves after doing some LST - stretching out branches horizontally... Should I remove the lower leaves, focus on the bud sites access to light?

trim auto for compact grow (space bucket)
I want to focus on a few colas when growing this compact, 5gal bucket is max width. Should I leave the 4 or 5 fittest and trim the lower branches off entirely or just let the taller dominate and avoid stressing this auto (space is the obvious issue here)? 🙏thanks community.

Should I remove the smallest and lowest stems of the plant on 6th week? I'm pretty sure they will be useless being that small and down but will it help in some way?

Defoliation at blooming in a late-growth auto
Hello! Since my plant had a slow growth, is it useful doing defoliation at this stage? Is it useful at all doing it on a outdoor Auto? I've read somewhere that is better not touching autos at all since them fragility. Many thanks.
