HELP FIRST TIME GROWING. SHOULD I DEFOLIATE MY PLANTS? Could you tell me please if I can defoliate one or two leaves of each plant without harming them

Hey friend, You don’t need to defoliate at this age.Let them grow happily.Recommend to defoliate at the start of flowering circle and again at 3rd week of flower or at the end of stretching period.At that time, you will know which one to remove and which one to leave for maximizing your final yield.Happy growing... ✌️

Okay thanks. Yes, maybe they are a little bit short, they are starting to flowering, I can see the white hairs there. Maybe the light was too low because I didn´t want them to strech uselessly. I am counting 6 week since they germinated. I could also put the lights a little bit higher.

Looking at the size/stage of your autoflowers, i wouldnt defoliate em more than 1-2 leaves per plant and only if they are really doing some serious shading. Try to tuck leafs that are shading your buds. Also if u havent yet, remove the few tops per each plant, the bottom ones, the smallest ones in the darkest places that would never develop. week6 your autos still not flowering btw? whats up with that i wonder.

Your plants seems a bit small to be 6 weeks old, I guess they still have to stretch. I would wait a bit, leafs are needed to grow!!
