How much defoliation should I do?
This gnome automatics “forge” is really starting to grow. I think I should get more airflow going in there but am not sure how to do it right. Is there some sort of rule of thumb about what to leave and how much? Thanks in advance for your help, it always proves invaluable.

Hello! MB it is dumb question, but still. I plan to move my growbox so i wont disturb anybody. And I want to switch lights from 18 to 20 hours. Would it cause any problem after 3 weeks on 18 hour regime? Thank you.

This plant is behaving differently than my other plants (Northern Lights, and Somango XXL) in that it is stretching for a second time this late into flowering. I can notice it the most in the center colas, but also in the exterior ones. Is this normal? Does it want more light?

Big leaves keep or not?
Question for all the growers in here. When I can cut those big fan leaves on my plant? According that this is an acceptable procedure. My plant is still in veg with around 11 nodes. It seems that those big leaves put in shade the side shoots, should I remove them or not?

How far do you defoliate your mainlined autos?
A question to all you autoflower mainliners out there, how often do you defoliate, and to what extent? I trimmed the fan leaves off the bottom of the cola stems, should I take it higher?

I am about three weeks away from harvesting and have used the maximum nutrient solution for the past 5 weeks. Should I start using less nutrients for the final weeks up until i just use water for 4 to 5 days to flush them?

Ok, just trying to plan ahead. I read many things about making changes in nutes, switching to plain water, flushing, etc...referencing off 1-2 weeks from harvest. How do I know I am 2 weeks from harvest? What are the signs?
