It's not as pretty, but if you want to increase light without defoliating you can move some of the leaves around and tuck them behind others. You can bend or stratch some of the leaf stems to get them to bend into a different direction, though I know that can get old quick especially with a larger number of leaves.

It's a personal choice but removing some that are blocking the light right above the tips would be helpful. I personally don't cut them off well not totally I scissor through leaves. To me half a leaf is getting more energy than no leaf..just don't go crazy..

Personally, I would remove the leaves blocking bud sites.

ScrOG / Lollipopping / Defoliation I'm thinking of going for ScrOG for the blooming (which is just starting) – maybe even lollipopping or defoliation. I would love to get some feedback! - What I should bear in mind? - Does my setup look suitable? - When should I start with what? - Any good resources?

Early signs of pre-flower Can anyone with experience with auto flowers please let me know if the Auto Black Opium plant is too small to be in pre-flowering? Wondering if I still have another week to let her lower nodes come out before she goes into full blown flower. In terms of yield should I be worried?

When to transplant and what soil to use When can I put her in a bigger pot? I realise now that I probably should have started her in the final, but hey-ho. Also, I started in a generic potting mix and read you should use something similar when transplanting. Planning to use BioBizz All-Mix. Think that'll work?
