I would take the single products from canna ( calcium and magnesium) to buffer the coco and some aloe after washing it. Single products a´have the advantage that they dont contain Nitrogen , like all the other mixed calmag products. So you can easy start with you seedling without having overfertilisation . greetings

About the feeding it is hard to recommend a feeding chart over another as it depend mostly on your the nutrients available for your but whatever the brand you will use you NEED to grab a bottle of Cal-Mag because coco grow requires a lot more than a classic grow. About the coco buffering I know that some growers are soaking the coco into a Ph'd water with extra cal mag in it 👍😊

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...

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.

At this point the garden feels a tad out of hand. I ask you pro growers and novices alike, what would you do? Defoliate and open up the canopy or let them ride? If I defoliate (I know there’s tons of guides on the web) but how much would you take out?
