Was told not to top auto, as it push/stun growth by a week. That was what I was told, to LST and defoliate only.

Hi :) yes I'd definitely defoliate. I defoliated all for my autos when needed. I usually cut the older and bigger fan leaves that shade the lower buds. I also cut some smaller leaves if they are at the bottom of the plant

Late Defoliating or No?Ok, so I didn't do much defoliating or pruning ever, I'm on week 11, day 25 of a 49-63 day flower cycle. Should I do any type of defoliating now or just let it go to the end? What about just the big leaves or middle leaves? I think just let it go now, right? Thanks all
