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

Cut leaves off?
She is a auto. About 62 days in. Just started to show a few white hairs yesterday. Should I cut some leaves off and open her up for more light and air? Getting tight in my tent. If so, should I do it at night? In the morning or does it matter? Thanks.

WATERING w/ organic soil and liquid nutrients. QUESTION - when watering with plain water I leave very little runoff to keep organic properties inside but when I use liquid nutes should I water with 30% runoff or keep everything inside the pot like I do when using plain water?

Trimming in flower?
Thoughts on trimming in flower? I trimmed underneath and lightly defoliated the top about 2 weeks in to flower. I'm mid-way through week 5 now, not sure if I should just leave them or trim some lower larf. Not planning on touching fan leaves until final week before harvest.

I am using a PH- from Dutch Pro. i haven't used a PH manipulator before and it has no usage guidelines on the bottle. I have used it approx 10ml to a Ltr mixing it in a separate container to where i add my nutes. Does this sound correct?

For Organic growers out there... What are your go to plant nutrients, do you use worms, do you take your soil after a grow cycle and mix in worm castings, how do you amend your soil, how do you assure you get the biggest best harvest, deficiency problems? TIPS PLEASE!?!?!?!?!?!

Defoliation??
When is the best time to defoliate when scrogging? I know this question might be a bit vague but just wondered if there was a more suitable timing with the plants cycle.

Trimming
It it wise to trim these? They are autos and heard they don’t bounce back quick enough. They do seem to be producing a lot of veg. And they are now about 5 days into flower.

Hey guys this is my first grow ever. And I was wondering what is the best way to germinate seeds? Is there any special tricks or do I just put the seeds into the soil?

How do you guys check your trichomes? What % of amber do you have? Do check for milky/amber on the leaves or the bud itself? I have a microscope but it’s very hard to use unless I trim a little piece of bud or leaf off and inspect it on a table with my microscope.
