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.

Should I defoliate light-blocking leaves from my NL auto?
My NL auto is at D40 and is growing well. She's developing a good lot of cola's with nice bud sites. Up untill now I've been able to tuck the leaves away, but it's getting more difficult to keep all bud sites cleared as she keeps growing. Should I tactically defoliate?

Ok so I have added to pictures to week 4. I have been flowering for week 5 and am seeing preflowers. I’m trying to determine wether or not these are male or female pre flowers. I am not seeing any white pistils. Are they male?

Defoliate before harverst
Does make any difference when you cut completely all leaves during the last week ? I read somewhere that you can avoid excess nutrients taste in your buds but I'm not sure.. Thank you in advance my fellow growers !

How often should I be defoliating during flowering? I still have a lot of small low down branches and leaves to cut, I don't really want any popcorn buds.

Hey guys, I’ve seen some posts where the plant is of an auto flower type, where the growers have topped it. I’ve also heard from many people that if I top my autoflower it will cause stress and flower? Any help clarifying this? 🙈

Autoflower defoliation 3rd week
I am planning to remove the big leave (shown in day 21 - big leave picture pink-highlighted) to give more light to the little branch below it (marked in yellow). This is the end of the 3rd week and it is an autoflower, what do you think? It's left plant in pic day 21 - morning

If this were your plant, what would you be doing to it right now? Leaving it alone? Trimming fan leaves? Are those brown spots a concern (they are only on a few leaves)?

What nutrients do you use to get the best root growth during vegetation? Do you continue with the same nutrients during flowering or do you change? What brand have you found to work best?

They are in 2 gallon pots right now. When should I switch them to 5 gallon? When should I start flower. I can get my light 2 inches away from the top of my tent and my tent is 6’7” tall.
