Can safely snip at least 5 or 6 of the big, top leaves.. leaving the little ones to grow out again :)

Defoliation - fan leaves Yay - to help with RH and focus plants energy on colas Nay - because plants need their leaves to photosynthasise and better to remove larfy bud sites instead A well known Phd in plant biology is firmly in the nay camp What do you think?

I’m at 53 degrees N which means we don’t get 12 hours of dark until too late in the fall. Will I need to provide 12 hours of dark to start flowering this photoperiod plant?

Should I cut fan leaves (autoflowering)?
I have this Dinafem auto (first grow ever). A friend told me to cut all the fan leaves and bottom branches. His claim is that the buds that these branches yield are too small and it is more productive to make the plant focus its energy on the top buds. What do you think? Thanks!

Defoliation/grownet?
Day 37 I've been trying to defoliate but not sure exactly how much to take off. I've just been taking big fans that get no light underneath or the ones covering bud sites. I have a grownet is it too late to try and use it? The two in one pot are taking up a lot of room now

Basically, my question is: Can it be normal for an autoflower to not flower by day 54? #2 has started budding, but #1 is still just growing. Leaves are less rough too so I dont think its even started the change yet?!?!
