She seems nice, good airflow and not many defoliation. Just remeber to prioratize bottom leaves that aren´t get any light and will just make the airflow worse and try not to remove anything without a reason, being it a leaf that´s blocking light on budsites or because there are too many leaves over each other in the same spot. I personally like to defoliate first from bottom to top and then from the center to the sides. Peace ✌️

Looks fine. As a suggestion never take more than 1/3 of the plant matter off in one go. Or you run the risk of slowing plant growth immensely. Not a huge problem but adds more time. 🤘😤

How and when to train?Hi, first grow here. My automatics are at their 16th day above ground. I think I have to top one of my plants to keep her height in check. Where and when should I top her? should I rather only do LST or maybe even wait for now (but they are automatics, so I should be quick?)?

Defoliation (no horizontal room in my tent and a lot of vertical room)This may seem like a dumb question but is cutting these small lower branches off going to promote vertical growth in my plants? I will be doing it later on anyways to eliminate larf but would it be more beneficial now or is it worth to keep to take in light energy for now

Some guidance for ScrOG please @22cm & preflowering for about 4-5 days. Haven't noticed any stretching (~2-3cm) When do I start with the ScrOG and at what height should one set the net ?

Removing of Big Leafs in Flower Phase ????Does it make sense to remove large leaves in the flowering phase to give the plant the opportunity to send more energy into the flowers or should you leave the larger leaves on because the plant also photosynthesises through them.

First Grow Help And Feedback Hello Grower, OG Kush Flower Day 24: Lollipopped and defoliated 10 days ago. Can/should I defoliate again? The buds seem like they could get more light. Also, I noticed some sprinkles on the top leaves—could this be from too much P/K? Any tips and general feedback are welcome!
