I would say no. Plants need the leaves to supply energy for your girl. When you have a lot of leaves you can remove one blocking some light but for now if you want another spot to have more light, just tuck that leaf down. Cheers

General questions about my grow Based on week 5 of my grow, does it sound like I'm on track with nutrients? Any advice on LST or defoliation? The plants struggled since I planted them so I wary of stressing them out. The only thing I'm doing at this point is tucking the leaves so the bud sites get more light.

Since nobody has suggested anything anywhere what I want to know is this How do you retain the volume in buds during drying? We all know they lose weight which is fine but keeping the same size now that’s my question (if that makes any sense)

Flowering bush recommendation My plant is rather bushy. I don’t want issues during the flowering. I am hesitant to trim down unless it shows signs of issues. What are the recommendations? Branch is falling off should I trim it?

What is the white stuff on my clay pebbles? I think it's some sort of salt build up but entirely sure. I flushed them out so we will see if it happens again this week.

Please see April 3rd photo and weekly update comment. Considering snipping the lowest 2 growth tips early in an effort to focus more energy higher up the plant. This is an auto specific question and I will be doing lst regardless. All thoughts welcome👊

Defoliate now?I normally don't ask more than one question a week, but I believe I'm at a critical point with my wedding glue. She hasn't grown at all in the last 2 days at 14.5". I haven't defoliated yet because of stretch, but I think she's done. Should I defoliate or wait a few more days?

If anyone actually looks at the temp/humidity monitor in my photos, you will see it goes from 40%s during lights on, to mid 50%s during lights off. Do I need to invest in a dehumidifier sooner rather than later, or will mid 50s during lights off not pose huge mold risks in flower

Defoliating Autos Hi I am wondering what you experienced auto growers would do. I am starting to have stretch and a few preflowers showing. Would you defoliate, if so to what extent. Bottom 10”, upper fans, etc. On photos I would, but idk with autos and dont want to stunt them too much. Thanks

Removing of Big Leafs in Flower Phase ????Does it make sense to remove large leaves in the flowering phase to give the plant the opportunity to send more energy into the flowers or should you leave the larger leaves on because the plant also photosynthesises through them.
