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

Is it too late for more defoliation
Is it too late for more heavy defoliation? Last Sunday I did a lot of trimming and thought I'd over done it, now I realise I didn't do nearly enough. She's switched to flower and I was going to change to bloom nutrients today. Thanks guys

Плохой старт
Интересно узнать. То как я поиздевался над малышкой и затянул вегу, повлияет на качество и колличество исходного поодукта. похоже получился фотопериодный экземпляр вопреки моим предположениям. Родителями были два авто и папа фотопериодный АК-47

Pruning?
Pruning ideas along the stems? Was thinking that some of the branches at the bottom that may never get over the lid of the pot should be snipped off. Also, good idea to keep blue/red light shining under the canopy?

Defoliation every 3 days during flowering
I heard about defoliation every 3 days during the first 3 weeks of flowering. My sweet critical CBD is almost ending her first week, I already defoliate once, but I think I have to work on it more to let branches grow. What do you think about it? Thank you all!

Should I defoliate during flower?
Should I defoliate during flower? I have two Green Crack plants growing right now. I am in early flower stage and one of the plant has some dense foliage under the SCROG canopy that is hurting light penetration and zapping energy I want the plant to use for growing dense buds.

As these plants are entering flower stage should I defoliate more heavily? I am afraid to remove too many fan leaves as I don’t want to impact growth. I did some very light defoliation and it was well tolerated. Any advise?

Do you remove small "buds" when doing defoliation?
When doing defoliation, are you removing these small "buds" (see pictures) that are not getting enough light?

Defoliation Trim Uses ?
Hi fellow Growmies, I just done my 26 day flower defoliation. I have quite a substantial amount of lower flower branches and fan leaves. I hate wasting anything from this beautiful plant so would love to know some ideas on what I could do with it?

Did I remove too much growth?
Did I cut too much? She was getting so bushy that there was water puddling on the leaves. She’s in very early stage of flowering and didn’t plan on cutting again but she’s growing like crazy. Pictures are before- After and after top view

Defoliation. Yes or No?
Want to hear some other opinions on defoliation of fan leaves. Do y'all defoliate or no? Everything I have ever learned about plants tells me not to defoliate. Why would you cut off the plants solar panels that absorb the light and store nutrients to drive photosynthesis?

He visto un vídeo donde hablan de defoliación y poda de bajo luego de pasar las plantas a 12/12, he leido que una vez se coloca las plantas a florecer no
no debería; ahora mismo tengo unas plantas que llevan 5 días que las pase a 12/12 y tengo debajo de la malla unas ramas que no llevan luz y en la parte de arriba unas hojas muy grandes que paran el paso de la luz, puedo defoliar y hacer poda de bajos al 7mo dia?

Autoflower defoliation question
Did some defoliation at the bottoms of the plants to help lower humidity, did I do enough or do too much? Also should I trim some of the skinny branches and pinch out popcorn buds? I will wait until next week to do that if I do so they can recover from the defoliation
