Servus✌️, I would definitely take off the shoots that never see the light. But be careful, you can also slow down growth when stressing her too much. So maybe it's better to split the session if you have a lot to defoliate. Good luck and happy trails for the rest of the way 🤞 Servus✌️ OimRausch

I prefer to defoliate everything under the canopy (lollipop) that isn’t receiving light. This stuff will just take energy away from the rest of the plant.

Is there any way I can prolong the veg stage to allow the pant to get a bit bigger. I was thinking if I topped her she will be forced to put out new growth but I have no idea if this is possible with auto flowers. Could this be detrimental to the plant? What should I do?

This plant is behaving differently than my other plants (Northern Lights, and Somango XXL) in that it is stretching for a second time this late into flowering. I can notice it the most in the center colas, but also in the exterior ones. Is this normal? Does it want more light?

Note that I have two plants in one hydro farm. The small plant is 5 days younger, as many parents experience it was an accident, but I love her nonetheless. I hate to toss one, but have nowhere else to grow it. Can I grow both in the same pot ?

What nutrients would you recommend for this grow? I still have some @foxfarms combo nutes. This is all about trying everything until I find what’s best for me. We have a massive amount of knowledge on this site, and I trust growers more than anyone. Thanks in advance.
