In flower, when to call it quits on canopy management?

WeedDoctorSamstarted grow question 5y ago

Canopy management has been a bitch and the results are an uneven, but full canopy. Am I advised to continue LST until the canopy is even or, given that it's almost been 3 weeks since flipping to 12-12, should I avoid further stressing the plants?

You can keep it tied down right up to harvest...I accidentally left a wire to one of mine. Just don't bend the stem because it should be getting woody around before week 3

Any suggestions?These two are recovering from a Broken PH Pen, and stunted by too much recharge(mislabeled for hydro). We've fixed the issues and are back on track, we've finally started to see some stretch again! My question is - should I defoliate more, to encourage branching? Or just wait?

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

I want to learn more about LST (low stress training) tecnic I never done it before, but I’m sure it will improve my yield, maximizing resources, mainly light watts. Shall I start by bending the main cola, is it better for the shape of this plant? (+Speed auto from Sweet Seeds). Thank you 🙏 in advance for any insights.

I have a question: my “daiquiri lime auto” plant is now more or less at the third week of flowering phase, I thought that maybe some of the leaves down near the groung or the “useless” ones could be cutted off. What do you think? Thank u very much.

Too much trimming up top?I read defoliating throughout week 3 of flower is around the last time you should trim. I cleaned up the bottom real well, but Do you think I trimmed too many fan leaves up top? A lot my bud sites have one fan leaves and the nodes under it have none at all?
