Seems about enough, altho u could afford to lose that one on the bottom, but u can leave it a sort of buffer, if she has a deficiency of macronutrients she will pull em from that leave and others.

Too much foliage? Not too sure.
Should I thin this out? The canopy is about 8" deep, so 4 layers of foliage. It looks like it's still a bit much. Should I wait for the stretch to finish up and then defoliate properly? Am I being overly analytical Just need to double check with the professionals. Thanks!

Would a combination of giving my plant too much nitrogen and water during flowering make it smell like wet grass?

This q is for my Candy Cane Auto. I know I likely should have went right into a 3+g pot, instead I used a jiffy puck and a small container with my medium of choice. I decided that I best transplant before she gets too developed. Will she be stunted? They are at day 6, all intact.

Supposed to be an autoflower strain. This is week 8 and I don't know if I see any signs of flowering or not. I just switched to flower nutes anyway for one watering to see if I can jump start it. I have a photo seedling in the room so don't want to switch to 12/12 yet.

Do you have any watering tips? No way to find out what is the best way. Do I initially water with less water but more often or soak the whole pot? Someone who has experience with airpots?

Trim side shoots @ week 3 flower?
I plan to do a final defoliation at the start of week 3 flowering. Lots of side shoots growing from the branches, should I snip those off during this final defoliation or will they produce decent buds? 4-way LST, 2 1/2β diameter canopy

At what point should I cease Foliar Feeding or applying water via spray bottle. I am currently in week nine ad the description of this strain says it should be ready for harvest between weeks 8-10. Approximately 20% of the pistils have turned orange as of today.
